  • Why We Went All-In On Phoenix Mulitfamily - E1130 - CFC
    Sep 4 2025

    Most operators are still chasing diversification…

    But we’re doing the opposite.

    In this episode, I sat down with Tyler Lyons, my business partner at Asym Capital, to explain why we’ve gone all-in on Phoenix multifamily and literally moved our families across the country to prove it.

    We reveal the data, market signals, and overlooked fundamentals that led us to bet our careers (and personal capital) on this thesis.

    In today’s episode, we break down:

    • Why Phoenix offers a unique “base hit” strategy with asymmetric upside
    • The structural advantages that make this market incredibly operator-friendly
    • The exact property we’re buying at a 38% discount to 2022 pricing
    • Why now might be the best buying opportunity in multifamily since 2009
    • How our hyper-local approach gives us an execution edge most firms miss

    This isn’t a theory episode.

    It’s a playbook from operators who’ve done 60+ real estate deals, and are doubling down while others wait on the sidelines.

    If you're a serious investor looking to understand where the smart money is going next…
