Ross McArthur shares how he built a $40M multifamily portfolio and how passive investors should evaluate apartment syndications with Justin Goodin.

We’re excited to share that Ross McArthur, Co-Founder of Follow The Deal, was recently featured on the Breaking Ground With Justin Goodin podcast in an episode titled “Owning $40,000,000+ in Real Estate: Conversation With A Real Multifamily Operator.”

In this in-depth conversation, Ross breaks down what multifamily investing really looks like from the operator’s side. After spending 15 years in the software and tech world, Ross made the leap into full-time real estate. Today, he owns and manages over $40 million in assets while running a fix-and-flip business that completes around 30 homes per year.

This episode goes far beyond surface-level advice. Ross explains:

  • Why he chose multifamily real estate over other asset classes
  • How he evaluates apartment deals before even looking at projected returns
  • The most common mistakes passive investors make when vetting sponsors
  • What actually happens after you wire money into a syndication
  • How to think about risk, underwriting, and protecting your capital
  • What a “boring but great” deal really looks like

For busy professionals who want passive income without becoming landlords, this episode offers clear, practical insight. Ross shares how to think long term, how to analyze risk the right way, and why discipline matters more than hype in today’s market.

If you’re serious about building wealth through multifamily investing, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
