Property Profits Real Estate Podcast

Real estate conditions can look very different from one Ontario market to the next.
In this September 2026 update, Simi Mehta shares what she is seeing across her portfolio and why Pembroke has been especially strong for rental demand. She also explains why she is putting more attention on industrial units in Pickering.
Simi walks through how one of her joint ventures works using a 38-unit apartment building in Pembroke as an example. Four investors brought different amounts of capital into the project and received shares based on what they invested. After the property was renovated and refinanced, the investors received their original capital back plus profit while remaining invested in the property.
She also shares an update on a Cornwall property that had two commercial units and a former gym. Simi and her team worked with the City of Cornwall to turn the gym space into six apartments. The project is nearing completion, with leasing and refinancing planned as the next steps.
In this episode, Simi discusses:
Why she looks beyond the GTA for deals• The different rental conditions she is seeing in Pembroke and Kitchener• Her current mix of single-family homes, multiplexes, and industrial units• Industrial units in Pickering starting at $125,000• How her 38-unit Pembroke joint venture was structured• The difference between a joint venture investment and private lending in her business• The Cornwall conversion from a gym to six residential units• Her recent spiritual retreat and what she learned about acceptance and time

Buying during a difficult market is one thing. Setting up a deal so it can survive what comes next is another.
Dan Brisse says the current multifamily market has created something investors have not seen in a long time: owners under serious pressure and properties available at much lower cost bases.
Granite Towers is mainly focused on value add apartments around Dallas and Nashville. Dan explains why his team wants to be a distressed buyer rather than a distressed seller, and how lessons from the last several years have changed the way they look at leverage, debt, reserves, and hold periods.
Dan also shares what happened when three economists at a recent conference gave three completely different predictions for interest rates. His conclusion was simple. You have to structure a deal so you can win no matter which direction rates move.
Key topics and takeaways
Why distressed multifamily sellers are creating buying opportunities
How Granite Towers moved out of bridge debt and reduced leverage

Anne Michelle Wand did not start real estate investing with a large pile of cash. She borrowed the down payment on her first home, found a way to split the land, and turned that one purchase into the start of a much larger portfolio.
Anne Michelle first became interested in real estate while she was a single mom and self employed. She saw property as a way to create her own retirement account. Her first major move was buying a home on one acre outside Boulder, Colorado. After learning the land could be annexed into the city and divided, she worked with 13 neighbors to make it happen.
Years later, her portfolio included a duplex, a condo, a 44 unit apartment building, her own home, and other rentals. When the 2008 downturn changed things, she decided to restructure and move to Panama rather than wait for everything to recover in the United States.
Once in Bocas del Toro, she saw another opportunity. There were only a few real estate companies in the area and none were global, so she opened a United Country franchise. She ran the business for about 10 years and sold it in 2021.
Anne Michelle also talks about what real estate looks like in Panama, including titled property, rights of possession, and the role attorneys play in closing deals.
Key topics and takeaways:
Why Anne Michelle saw real estate as her retirement account
How she used annexation and lot division on her first Boulder property
How one property helped fund two more down payments
Why the 2008 downturn helped lead her to Panama
What she had to learn about titled property and rights of possession
Why she still takes on projects after retiring

Doctors may earn strong incomes, but Kyle Stephenson says many receive very little financial education. That gap became a major reason he started learning about real estate and eventually began helping other physicians do the same.
Kyle is a full time orthopedic surgeon who began as a passive real estate investor. He later bought single family homes, found that approach difficult to scale, and joined a team investing in larger multifamily properties in Indiana.
Today, he raises capital primarily from other physicians. His approach is simple. He does not want to sell people. He wants to educate them.
Kyle explains why physicians can be a challenging audience, how local meetups and LinkedIn help him build relationships, and why he created the LegacyRx Conference. He also shares how his Doctors Investor Club podcast grew from a show focused only on real estate into a broader conversation about how doctors can think differently about wealth.
The most personal part of the conversation comes when Kyle talks about losing his father. It changed how he views money, family, and the time he spends in the operating room.
Key Topics
Why Kyle moved from passive investing into active real estate
His experience with single family homes and the move into larger teams

Chris Eyman has watched real estate marketing change more than once. When one source of deals slowed down, he changed with it.
Chris started at foreclosure sales about 25 years ago. When that business slowed, he moved into direct to seller marketing. Cold calling and texting worked well in 2018, but changes around spam calls and texting pushed his business toward PPC and television.
Today, his Arizona and Florida teams handle about 70 to 100 houses a month. Chris also runs a lending business that grew from a simple observation. The people buying his houses needed hard money, and the customer was already sitting across the table.
Chris explains how he started wholesaling notes after 2008, how his lending operation grew, and how he and a business partner have raised about $10 million for their first fund.
Key topics and takeaways:
Why Chris moved away from foreclosure sales and into direct to seller marketing
How cold calling and texting gave way to more PPC and TV advertising
How a 15 to 16 person team supports 70 to 100 wholesale transactions a month
Why Chris started providing hard money to buyers already purchasing his deals
How his first lending fund grew to about $10 million
Why golf, personal relationships, and small investor dinners are part of the capital raising plan

A pediatric medical group can do more than fill space in a shopping center. Steve Salvigsen believes it can become an anchor that brings steady traffic and helps nearby retail tenants.
Steve is the founder of Sage Square Capital. His company invests in multi tenant retail and medical centers, with a current focus on smaller port cities.
Steve explains what he means by medtail and why simply putting a dentist into an empty retail space does not create the same effect. His team looks for medical and retail tenants that work together intentionally.
He also explains how Sage Square studies port markets. The team watches infrastructure projects, port throughput, and commitments from large companies. Steve is not just looking for markets that are growing. He wants to see the growth rate itself start to increase.
His Shark Week analogy makes the strategy clear. Sage Square wants to enter while opportunity is building, but before large institutions arrive and remove much of the excess opportunity.
Key topics and takeaways:
How Steve defines medtail
Why medical tenants can become neighborhood center anchors
The Mobile, Alabama center with Ace Hardware and a pediatric group
Why Sage Square watches TEUs and major port infrastructure
What Steve means by looking at the second derivative of market growth
Why large institutional buyers can signal that it is time to stop buying
The benefits and challenges of long term triple net leases
Why lease expiration dates matter when planning a refinance or sale
Guest information:
Steve Salvigsen is with Sage Square Capital. At the time of the conversation, the company had 15 properties across four markets.
Steve said he wants to connect with people interested in commercial real estate investment opportunities and people selling shopping centers, especially in smaller port city markets.
