Show Notes: https://retipster.com/226-tyler-cauble/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=ftfFpXE18q0 In episode 226 of the REtipster Podcast, I’m talking with Tyler Cauble, a commercial real estate investor and YouTuber flipping the script on the CRE game. Tyler started selling Cutco knives in college, dropped out, and built a massive portfolio without ever touching residential real estate. We dive deep into how he has built massive value, like finding $215K in equity without doing any rehab. We also explore flex space vs. retail, cost segregation studies, broker strategies, and the creative partnerships he forms (like pairing pickup with storage facilities to boost occupancy). If you want to break into commercial or industrial real estate, this episode is packed with tactics you can use today. 0:00 - Intro + Tyler's origin story 3:30 - Knife sales to CRE transition 9:00 - How Tyler picks commercial properties 13:00 - Leasing strategy: signage & tenant targeting 18:00 - Direct mail for off-market CRE 22:00 - Why you're buying time, not cashflow 27:00 - Example: $215K equity from a signed lease 31:00 - CRE asset class deep dive: self-storage, flex, hotels 35:00 - Creative partnerships: moving co + storage 39:00 - How to find good deal partners 43:00 - Cost segregation explained 47:00 - Starbucks: ride retail coattails 50:00 - The critical AM/PM side strategy 53:00 - Biggest mistakes new CRE investors make 56:00 - Ask the broker the right way 59:00 - Final advice + closing #landinvesting #commercialrealestate #cre #flexspace #selfstorage #leasingsuccess #commercialleasing #costsegregation #realestatestrategy #realestateinvestor #realtips #REtipsterPodcast *🙋🏻‍♂️ Get the REtipster Newsletter (It's FREE)!* https://welcome.retipster.com/newsletter/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=ftfFpXE18q0 *🚀 Land Investor’s Action Plan (Free 5-Day Course!)* https://welcome.retipster.com/5-day-email-course/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=ftfFpXE18q0 *⚠️ Land Buyer’s Survival Guide (Free 5-Day Course!)* https://welcome.retipster.com/survival-guide/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=ftfFpXE18q0 *👉 10X Your Income from Land Investing* https://welcome.retipster.com/webinar-invite/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=ftfFpXE18q0 *😀 Join the REtipster Forum!* https://forum.retipster.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=ftfFpXE18q0 *🛠️ All My Favorite Tools and Resources 🛠️* https://retipster.com/resources/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=podcast&utm_content=ftfFpXE18q0
