Industrial Real Estate Investing Irwin Boris is an expert in industrial real estate investing. Based in New Jersey, US he invests in industrial or commercial real estate. Summary of the Podcast Introduction and background on Heritage Group Capital Irwin Boris introduced Heritage Group Capital, a multi-generational family office turned industrial real estate investing firm. Starting with apartments, they shifted focus to industrial properties for stability. They own 9,000 units across the US through strategic acquisitions and active management. Industrial real estate investing strategy and philosophy Heritage Group Capital focuses on smaller industrial/flex properties. They do this in secondary markets near major highways and workforce centres. Irwin explained they seek stable cash flow over appreciation. Heritage has maintained 35-40% equity to weather downturns. Diversification across tenants and staggered lease expirations mitigates risk. Risk management and deal structuring Irwin discussed mitigating single tenant risk through location stickiness. Heritage Group Capital takes a conservative approach, limiting leverage to 55% and always hedging interest rates. Returns target 9-10% annually from cash flow with tax benefits, prioritising stable income over grand slams.   Clips from the Podcast Heritage - Property NOT Pharmacy https://thenext100days.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Irwin-Boris-Property-not-Pharmacy.mp4   Pivot to Industrial Real Estate Investing https://thenext100days.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Irwin-Boris-Industrial-Property.mp4   Don't Borrow More Than 65% From the Bank https://thenext100days.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Irwin-Boris-Man-Makes-Plans-God-Laughs.mp4   You Can't Eat IRR https://thenext100days.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Irwin-Boris-You-Cant-Eat-IRR.mp4   Soprano's Guide to Wealth https://thenext100days.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Irwin-Boris-Sopranos.mp4   Irwin Provided this Testimonial https://thenext100days.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Irwin-Boris-Testimonial.mp4 The Next 100 Days Podcast Co-Hosts Graham Arrowsmith Graham is "The High Net Worth Data Guy" who founded Finely Fettled to help business owners and marketers market to affluent and high-net-worth customers.  Now get all-inclusive affluent direct mail campaigns combining A lister copy, design, print and postage for £599+vat, without the DIY hassle.
