In this episode of the Hidden Upside Podcast, Chris Shebib interviews Ara Poladian, a professional engineer and real estate investor, who shares his journey from structural engineering to real estate investing. Ara discusses his experience with duplex conversions amidst the COVID-19 pandemic and his transition to larger multifamily projects, including a challenging renovation of a distressed 12-unit building.

The discussion covers the complexities of repositioning multifamily properties, the importance of local investing, tenant management, cash-for-keys strategies, and leveraging CMHC’s MLI Select program. Ara also emphasizes the value of being hands-on and the long-term mindset crucial for successful real estate investing.

Ara provides valuable insights on:

  • Why proximity to your investments matters

  • How to approach tenant negotiations during renovations

  • The potential in adding units to existing properties

  • Why staying local can be advantageous in real estate investing

"I wouldn't recommend it to like 90, 95% of the investors out there… I like to take risks. I will take risks in life."
