In this episode of The Value Builder Podcast, Jonathan Hayek shares how eight years in special education set the foundation for disciplined, long-term success in commercial real estate. Now a managing partner at Endurance Properties, Jonathan focuses on single-tenant, triple-net industrial—and hosts The Source of Commercial Real Estate podcast.
🎯 You’ll learn:
-
How a W-2 can bankroll your first CRE moves—without false urgency
-
Why single-tenant industrial stays “sticky” and Amazon-proof
-
Practical value-add: lease extensions, below-market rents, better tenants
-
Local bank lending: finding appetite, terms, and repeat partners
-
A simple rule: underwrite as if you’ll own it 10 years
If you’re weighing stability vs. value-add—or moving from residential to industrial—this conversation delivers clear, operator-level guidance.
