Nick and Elaine Stageberg are the owners of Black Swan Real Estate, a real estate private equity firm that buys deep value-add residential real estate ranging from distressed single-family homes to large class-A apartment buildings and ground-up construction.

In this episode, Nick and Elaine tell us how they raise capital without targeting a defined hold period or IRR, why they built their business model around putting their investors’ needs first, and how they find deals with the potential for forced appreciation.
