The Commercial Real Estate Investor Podcast with Tyler Cauble
If you own a business in Nashville, you know how expensive it is to open and operate. However, there is a solution for entrepreneurs looking to save on their expenses while also building up their investment portfolio. Here’s why commercial condos will help make business more affordable for Nashville’s entrepreneurs.
One of the many reasons commercial real estate is so profitable is the ability to take advantage of depreciation. As buildings wear out over time, the IRS allows owners of investment properties to deduct a certain amount from their income every year before tax is applied as “depreciation expense”. Since this is an imaginary or paper expense, in that you’re not paying for it out of pocket, the more you claim in depreciation the more you can walk away with after taxes. Cost segregation is a common way of trying to maximize the amount of depreciation expense you can claim by speeding up the abstract decline in property value. Let’s take a look at how that plays out.
In the world of commercial real estate, the lease agreement is vital to making sure everyone knows who is responsible for what. Leases can be structured any way the landlord and tenant agree on, so why do so many choose to write things out the same way? While part of it may be familiarity with the terms from past experience, there are some serious advantages for both the tenant and the landlord for choosing to go triple net (NNN). Let’s take a look at these types of leases to see just why they are so popular.

If you’re looking at leasing commercial space, you have several different variations of lease structures from which to choose. The triple net lease is one of the most attractive for investors and landlords, but it also has it’s fair share of cons. Here’s what landlords need to know about NNN leases.
Whether you’re looking to lease or invest in commercial real estate, you’ve probably run across the term “triple net.” But what does that actually mean? The commercial real estate is so full of its own jargon that it can be difficult to keep up when you’re new to the game. So, here’s the complete guide on everything you need to know about NNN (triple net).

As you might expect, raising capital for commercial real estate isn’t all that easy. In fact, it’s my least favorite aspect of investing in commercial properties - I’d much rather stay in my lane and focus on deal sourcing and acquisitions, planning for and developing the project, and executing our ideas. However, capital is a finite resource and if you’re looking to grow your assets under management, you’ll need to throw that fuel on your fire and bring in outside capital from investors. I recently finalized a $4.8 million cash raise with my partners on a commercial development in Nashville. At 10x my largest capital raise to-date, this raise gave me some valuable insight to the entire process. So, here are my biggest takeaways.
When I first got started in commercial real estate, I thought there was only one way to go: You save money for years and years until you finally have enough to do a deal on your own. And for some people, that’s certainly a good way to go. I thought the same way until I learned about syndicating real estate at a mastermind in Austin, TX. It completely opened my eyes to how I could grow my investment portfolio bigger and faster while having less of my own cash, which we all know is a finite resource, in each deal. So, here’s my guide to commercial real estate syndication for beginners.
I’ve been in commercial real estate since 2013 but only really started investing in 2019, after founding my own commercial brokerage. Since then, I’ve developed a 42-unit townhome community, acquired over 50,000 square feet of office and retail space, and am in the middle of a $19.2 million mixed-use development in East Nashville. And I get asked all the time: “How can I get into commercial real estate investing?” So, knowing what I know now, here’s what I would do if I had to start it all over.
Finding commercial real estate investments can be one of the most frustrating parts of becoming an investor. Projects are often hidden by LLCs or other entities that are either shells or forward directly to an attorney, so finding the true owner can be a bit tricky. However, I've found direct mailers to be one of the most effective methods for sourcing potential investment opportunities.
