In this episode of The Remote Real Estate Investor, Michael Albaum sits down with Bruce Fraser, a former hedge fund manager turned multifamily syndicator, to uncover the strategies that have helped him thrive in some of the most challenging market environments. From accurately calling the 2007 housing crash to building Elkhorn Capital Partners with a focus on workforce housing and social impact, Bruce shares a wealth of experience that bridges Wall Street savvy with boots-on-the-ground real estate investing.
You’ll learn how Bruce uses macroeconomic indicators, like price-to-rent ratios and volatility indices, to guide his investment decisions—and why he believes now is a time for cautious optimism. He breaks down his approach to value-add multifamily deals, explains his risk management playbook (including smart insurance strategies), and reveals how he aligns financial success with community impact.
If you're looking to refine your strategy in a high-interest-rate environment, this episode is packed with actionable insights on:
✔ Market timing and selection
✔ Creating resilient portfolios
✔ Partnering for scale and success
✔ Avoiding high-risk traps in today’s climate
