In this episode of The Flex Forward Podcast, Nic Espanet sits down with Jonathan Nichols, co-founder of Apogee Capital, to explore his inspiring journey from engineering to real estate. Jonathan reveals how a shared interest in finding a "paying hobby" with his wife Paula led to building a multifamily real estate investment company.
He dives into how their careful approach to financing—favoring fixed-rate debt—set them apart early on, and how staying active in today’s market gives them a competitive edge. Jonathan also opens up about the challenges of transitioning from engineering to business, the real weight of managing investor money, and why the idea of “passive income” as a GP is often misunderstood.
Listeners will appreciate Jonathan’s three-tiered learning strategy for anyone looking to get started in investing or any new venture: learn on your own, learn from others, and then take action. He closes by sharing what’s next for Apogee Capital—and life as a new dad to baby Chloe.
