CRE Cash Flow vs. Tax Breaks with Brian Baniqued

In this episode, Dave Dubeau sits down with long-time real estate entrepreneur Brian Baniqued, whose journey from teen realtor to multifamily mogul is packed with insights for investors of all levels. Brian shares how he’s built a vertically integrated business covering everything from brokerage and mortgage services to property management and development.

You’ll learn how he leverages tax strategies like accelerated depreciation, why he shifted his focus back to California despite the high costs, and what it really takes to scale up in commercial real estate. Brian also talks about how owning income-producing real estate gives him the financial freedom to explore other ventures—including film production!
