Episode 27 - 15 Years in Real Estate: The Chris Stead Story
Chris Stead has spent more than 15 years buying, managing, developing and operating real estate throughout New Jersey — and he's seen just about everything along the way. Chris joins Mike & Matt to talk about getting his start buying properties in Newark, the wild side of self-managing his own portfolio, and the lessons that came from learning the business firsthand. We get into how he adapted during COVID when many real estate investors struggled, how his relationship with Alpha Funding began and grew over years of deals, and how his approach to real estate has changed with experience. Chris also shares how he's looking at the market today and what the next chapter looks like for him as a developer and operator. This is a real conversation about experience, surviving different market cycles, adapting when things change, and what you learn after actually doing this business for 15+ years.
