In this episode of SF Commercial Property Conversations, host Bruce Bean sits down with David Saxe, Managing Principal and Co-Founder of Calvera Partners, to dive into the world of multifamily real estate investing. David shares his journey from working at a $30 billion real estate investment firm to launching his own company and navigating the complex landscape of value-add multifamily investments.

David discusses:

  • The origins of Calvera Partners and how the team scaled from small multifamily projects to owning 12 properties across three different funds.
  • The challenges facing multifamily investors today, from rising interest rates to increasing insurance costs and climate-related risks.
  • Why the current market presents a unique buying opportunity for savvy investors.
  • How data-driven research and market selection play a critical role in choosing the right investments.
  • His outlook on the San Francisco Bay Area real estate market and why he remains optimistic about San Francisco’s recovery.

David also shares fascinating stories from his early investments, including unexpected surprises in older buildings, lessons learned from self-managing properties, and how investors can prepare for market shifts.
