In this episode of SF Commercial Property Conversations with Bruce Bean, we’re joined by John Friedrich, whose journey spans from gold mining in South America to building tech startups in Venice Beach and now financing large-scale housing projects across the U.S. at LFB Ventures.
John shares his incredible path—from working with his father in the junior mining space, to launching a news-reading alarm clock app, to reshaping neighborhoods with real estate development. He breaks down how tech, geopolitics, and housing trends influenced his career shifts and what he’s seeing in today’s lending landscape.
