About this episode
This week, we discuss JPMorgan's age of empires, its play for the Roosevelt Hotel as part of a potentially 7 million square foot campus in the heart of New York. We dive into why 2 multifamily giants, Cortland and Bell Partners, are shopping for suitors and explore the capital landscape for large apartment owners. Finally, we do a quick-and-dirty breakdown of the Starwood-Fundamental $2.2B deal, and why a NNN lease isn't always mailbox money.Sponsor: This episode is sponsored by Vesto, which gives CRE players a single, clear point of access for all their bank accounts.
