    • Mastering Capital Protection and Cash Flow in a Volatile Macro Environment through Real Estate Private Lending

      Mastering Capital Protection and Cash Flow in a Volatile Macro Environment through Real Estate Private Lending
      Feb 10 2026
      FOR MORE - Debt Fund Due Diligence Hub: www.passivepockets.com/debtdd Next Steps Join the discussion + access links/resources: www.passivepockets.com/debtdd Attend the community Zooms (or watch recordings later) Dates mentioned in the episode: Feb 18, Feb 25, Mar 3 (check the member dashboard for times/updates) Attend the 2026 Summit Conference: https://get.biggerpockets.com/passivepocketssummit2026/ This Episode We’re officially kicking off PassivePockets’ new Debt Fund Due Diligence Series built around what members told us they want most: capital protection and steady cash flow in an uncertain macro environment. Chris Lopez breaks down what real estate private lending actually is (fix-and-flip, bridge, and ground-up construction), why senior debt sits in the “first paid / last to lose” position on the capital stack, and how lending can reduce downside volatility compared to equity-heavy strategies. From there, Chris gets tactical on how to evaluate debt funds like a pro, starting with the single most important document: the loan tape. You’ll learn what a loan tape is, what to look for (LTV/LTC/LTARV, borrower quality, defaults/delinquencies, interest reserves, extensions, leverage, fees, and more), and how real-time portfolio data can change the way you assess track record versus longer-cycle equity deals. Chris also shares a field-tested framework for deeper due diligence, including the on-site audit process: reviewing SOPs, pulling and verifying loan files, confirming recorded deeds of trust, and “follow the money” bank reconciliation to reduce lending and fraud risk. Finally, Chris outlines what’s next for the series community Zooms, expert panels, sponsor spotlights, and ultimately a community-built Debt Fund DD checklist that lives in the membership area as a continuously updated resource. Key Takeaways Why we’re starting with debt: members’ #1 fear is losing principal and #1 motivation is steady cash flow Private lending basics: fix-and-flip, bridge, and ground-up construction loan types—and typical timelines Real estate credit is massive: a multi-trillion-dollar market many retail investors still have little exposure to Capital stack 101: why senior debt is “first paid / last to lose,” and how it can reduce return variance Portfolio strategy: debt often functions like the “bond sleeve” of a real estate portfolio as you rebalance risk Two approaches: direct lending (control + concentration) vs debt funds (diversification + passivity) The loan tape: what it is, why it matters, and which columns/metrics actually tell you if risk is controlled The two risks Chris focuses on: lending risk (staying inside the credit box) and fraud risk (borrower + fund level) What “real due diligence” can look like: on-site audits, file pulls, deed-of-trust confirmation, and bank reconciliation Series roadmap: kickoff → community Zooms → panels/fund spotlights → group DD → living DD checklist Disclaimer The content of this podcast is for informational purposes only.

    • Hotels for LPs: Cash Flow & Playbook feat. Jai Desai & Suraj Reddy

      Hotels for LPs: Cash Flow & Playbook feat. Jai Desai & Suraj Reddy
      Feb 3 2026
      Attend the 2026 Summit Conference: https://get.biggerpockets.com/passivepocketssummit2026/ This Episode Hotels for passive investors: what actually matters and how it’s different from multifamily. Chris Lopez digs in with Jay Desai and Suraj Reddy on the underwriting stack (ADR, occupancy, RevPAR and RevPAR penetration), why brand fit and comp sets (STAR reports) drive the thesis, and how operations (daily pricing, sales/RFPs, third-party management aligned on expenses) move the needle. They walk through break-even occupancy math (often far lower than MF), margins, bonus depreciation via FF&E/capex, fixed-rate/community-bank capital stacks, and their “no capital calls” policy. Includes a Columbus case study and the macro outlook across business/leisure/extended-stay demand—and what Airbnbs really compete for. Key Takeaways Hotels 101: ADR × occupancy = RevPAR; low RevPAR penetration in a strong comp set = value-add target Break-even is different: hotels can pencil at ~35–60% occupancy vs. ~70–75% in multifamily Operations > brand alone: daily revenue management, sales/RFPs, and expense discipline drive NOI STAR reports: how pros build comp sets and gauge RevPAR share before/after capex Depreciation edge: large year-one bonus depreciation from FF&E and renovations (consult your CPA) Disclaimer The content of this podcast is for informational purposes only.
