About Real Estate Underground
Real talk from an operator who learned real estate the hard way. Ed Mathews analyzed 1,100+ deals before buying his first property in 2011. Frozen in fear. He made every mistake, all while traveling 150+ nights a year working for some of Silicon Valley's top companies. 100+ deals later, he shares what actually works and what doesn't. Each week, Ed brings you candid conversations with experienced operators, investors, and syndicators. No hype. No theory. Just real deals, real lessons, and the street-level intelligence you won't find anywhere else. You'll learn and hear about: Deals that worked (and the ones that didn't) What we learned when contractors ghosted and we had to step in How to vet opportunities when everyone else is sitting on the sidelines Conservative underwriting in markets that punish optimism Systems that protect capital when deals go sideways Whether you're analyzing your first deal or your hundredth, this is the conversation you'd have over coffee with someone who's been there, made the mistakes, learned the lessons and built the track record. New episodes every Tuesday at 12pm ET.

Renting Dirt: Nasir Ali of Rise360 Ventures on Manufactured Housing Communities
Published 20 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] So number one, those, as you alluded to earlier, I think a lot of those rates, those loans were written up at 0% or very low rates in 2020, 2021. And they're due. They're due now. And we've been playing this extend and pretend game for a couple of years, but you can only extend and pretend for so long. And so when those have to be refinanced and the occupancies aren't there, the revenues aren't there, you're going to see defaults and foreclosures. And then the banks that are holding that paper and can't get to even 70% of the value that they loaned on or 100%, let alone 100%. Those banks are eventually going to have to reckon with that and reconcile. […]
