JF3845: Fund Creation Strategy, Capital Raising Evolution, & Multi-Asset Portfolio Diversification ft. Jeremy Long

On this episode of the Best Ever CRE Show, Slocomb Reed interviews Jeremy Long, founder and managing partner of Axia Partners, a vertically integrated investment firm based in Salt Lake City. Jeremy shares his unique journey from door-to-door sales executive to real estate investor, including his experience taking Vivint Solar public and later being acquired by Sunrun. He explains why he and his partner Dave decided to launch with a fund model rather than individual syndications, allowing them to raise capital to a thesis and acquire multiple properties simultaneously. Jeremy discusses their initial investment focus on value-add multifamily in tertiary markets with strong migration patterns, and why they've expanded into RV parks for their consistent cash flow. He also provides candid insights on their challenges transitioning from retail investors to institutional capital, the importance of property management selection in smaller markets, and why they're now narrowing their asset focus after initially diversifying across multiple property types.
