About this listen
In this episode of Rich Roots, Vibha and Radhika walk through the five most important commercial real estate (CRE) asset classes that passive investors should understand before deploying capital.
If you’ve ever wondered:
What’s the difference between multifamily and self-storage?
Which asset classes are better for long-term growth vs. steady cash flow?
How do macro trends like inflation, e-commerce, or aging populations affect returns?
…this is your guide.
We break down:
Multifamily – Why demand remains high, and the red flags investors often miss
Industrial – The logistics backbone of e-commerce and how long-term leases reduce volatility
Self-Storage – A “recession-resistant” niche driven by life transitions and low overhead
Senior Living – A high-impact, high-reward asset that aligns with values—but requires the right operator
Data Centers – A future-proof play for tech-savvy investors who understand infrastructure risk
