Hard Lessons in Multifamily
In this episode, Anne-Lise Cailliez sits down with Mark Kenney, co-founder of Think Multifamily, to talk about what it really looks like when a 10,000-unit portfolio starts coming apart at the seams - and what he learned rebuilding it.

This isn't a highlight reel. It's a survival guide - and it might be the most honest conversation about multifamily investing you'll hear all year.
