Thursday Jun 12, 2025
Thursday Jun 12, 2025
Joel Friedland has been in the industrial real estate game for over 40 years, and he’s built his business on three key principles: focus, patience, and simplicity. Based in Chicago, Joel syndicates industrial properties—favoring small manufacturing buildings—and buys them with all cash. That’s right: no debt. He explains how his low-risk, long-term approach has protected his investors and his mental health—especially after weathering the 2008 crash with $70 million in personal guarantees.
In this episode, Joel walks host Dave Dubeau through how his strategy has evolved, how he scouts and acquires new properties (spoiler: door-knocking and thousands of cold calls), and why he’s more interested in reliable returns than hyped-up numbers. He also shares the personal and professional transformation that led him to reject over-leveraged deals in favor of simplicity and sustainability.
Key Takeaways:
Why Joel completely avoids bank financing—and how it helps him sleep at night
How losing buildings in 2008 shaped his entire investment philosophy
What makes a good industrial property (hint: ceiling height and parking matter)
The math behind selling to neighboring businesses at a premium
How his team finds deals through relentless persistence and direct outreach
Why IRR stands for “Irrelevant Rate of Return” in his book

What happens when you mix deep community understanding with big real estate vision? Michael McLean Jr. from Condor Partners joins Dave Dubeau to unpack impact investing—not as a buzzword, but as a strategy that’s transforming neighborhoods.

From revitalizing 120-year-old office buildings in Chicago to building luxury assisted living in Evanston, their projects are guided by purpose—and resilience.
Michael shares the behind-the-scenes story of turning a long-vacant lumber warehouse into a thriving office hub in Pilsen, and how their Evanston project not only houses seniors, but employs locals and uplifts the neighborhood.
Key Takeaways:
What “impact investing” means in the real estate world
How community-first planning leads to long-term success
Real-world examples of projects that thrive because they listen first
Why Michael’s sociology background gives him a unique edge in real estate

Tuesday Jun 10, 2025
Tuesday Jun 10, 2025
In this insightful episode, Dave Dubeau sits down with real estate developer Dusten Hendrickson to explore a unique model for workforce housing that's challenging traditional multifamily design. Broadcasting from Brookings, South Dakota, Dusten breaks down his proven approach to creating “modern workforce housing”—efficient, wellness-focused multifamily buildings that are attractive, affordable, and strategically located in suburban communities.

He also outlines the full-cycle development process, from site selection and financing to lease-up and eventual sale.
With over 20 years of experience and $500M in transactions, Dusten reveals why this repeatable, scalable model is gaining traction across states like Minnesota, Iowa, Ohio, and Wisconsin—and why both investors and municipalities are taking notice.

The difference between “big-A” and “little-a” affordable housing
Why many renters value natural light and storage over pools and gyms
How his team delivers stylish suburban apartments at half the downtown price
