On this week’s episode of Ritter on Real Estate, Kent Ritter interviews John Casmon. They break down a real case study: a 2019-built, B-class Louisville asset bought in 2021 where the team created value through operations and paired the plan with stable, assumed fixed-rate debt. John shares how they tightened collections, navigated a surprise tax reassessment, and used a “process, people, partner” framework to sharpen property management. They wrap with why Midwest absorption/supply dynamics matter and how conservative underwriting created multiple ways to win. Where to Find John:https://casmoncapital.com/John's podcasts - Multifamily Insights, Multifamily Mastery on Best Ever CREKey TakeawaysAlign debt structure with your business plan; fixed long-term debt lowered risk and created stabilityValue-add isn’t always about renovations—operational efficiencies can drive just as much upsideExpect the unexpected: delinquency spikes, tax surprises, and other challenges require proactive pivotsManagement can make or break deals; clear KPIs and the right on-site PM are criticalConservative underwriting and multiple ways to “win” set projects up to outperform expectationsBooks MentionedFree guide: 7 Questions to Ask Before Investing in ApartmentsBooks mentioned:Atomic Habits by James ClearWho Not How by Dan Sullivan & Benjamin Hardy10x Is Easier Than 2x by Dan Sullivan & Benjamin HardyCheck us out on socials: Instagram LinkedIn Youtube https://hudsoninvesting.com/ Production by Outlier Audio
