In this episode of the Property Profits Real Estate Podcast, host Dave Dubeau interviews Chris Lento, founder of EM Capital, on how he has built and operated a multifamily portfolio of approximately 850 units across the Southeast through multiple market cycles. Chris shares insights on disciplined underwriting, staying close to operations while leveraging professional teams, and why EM Capital focuses on value-add opportunities in larger assets with stronger economies of scale. The conversation also covers raising capital during volatile market conditions, structuring true co-GP partnerships, and how aggregating best practices across operators and property managers leads to more resilient, investor-aligned outcomes.
