JF 4162: Fund-of-Funds Value, Control Rights and Capital Partner Strategy ft. Mike Zlotnik
from The Best Ever CRE Show · host Joe Fairless
Richard McGirr interviews Mike Zlotnik, announcing a strategic shift toward more solo, educational monologue episodes while remaining highly selective about guest interviews. Richard explains why his deep-dive capital raising content has resonated with listeners and how it’s sharpened his own thinking as a fund manager and marketer. He then introduces Mike Zlotnik as a long-time fund-of-funds investor and capital partner who has been active since 2009. The conversation reframes the value of fund-of-funds investing, moving beyond improved economics to focus on control rights, deal intervention, and protecting LPs when investments go sideways. This episode dives into advanced, 201–301 level insights on how experienced capital partners can materially improve outcomes for investors.
