Key Takeaways:
“One of the very popular trends today is something called co-working. We would create a shared office space in a building; and that’s going to be probably for small companies that come just to work and also for medical purposes, medical offices, that’s what it’s meant to do.” – Michael Kharlab
“There is also what we call co-living, as well. It’s mainly for students. There are many students in downtown Phoenix today and they need a place to live. So we were trying to convert some of the floors of the building to smaller rooms for students to share.” – Michael Kharlab
“The build-to-rent concept around the community, if you are the investor who buys, it is buying a turnkey business that is already set up with triple-A tenants, low maintenance, brand new – so nothing breaks and it’s warranted for the first 12 months.” – Michael Kharlab
“How to get investors? For me, it has been referrals, and when marketing to the cold market, we need to be very careful of compliance. People who work with us introduce us to new people, and there’s a process we go through. We qualify and make sure people know what they’re doing and not putting in the last money.” – Michael Kharlab
