Ep. 179 - Distress to Opportunity: NV's Opportunistic Fund, 5% REIT, and Property Performance Update

Bart sits down with CEO Jason Manwaring to break down Neighborhood Ventures' latest moves amid a frozen resale market and higher interest rates. They cover why NV launched the Arizona Multifamily Opportunistic Fund, how it scooped up Venture on Colter and Venture on 52nd Street at 30–35% discounts, and why Venture on 12th Place was added after solving a tough refinance gap—now sitting on permanent debt with recent appraisals around ~$9M. They also update the NV REIT (MBE)—currently paying a 5% monthly dividend with stabilized, cash-flowing assets in Phoenix and Flagstaff—and preview new acquisitions in the pipeline. Property spotlights include Venture on 36th Street (fully occupied; moving to permanent financing) and Venture on 17th (stabilized with rents trending up). If you're evaluating where to put capital in today's market, this episode explains NV's buy-right, operate-well, and exit-smart playbook.
