What does a record year look like for a real estate operator? In this episode, Mitch Ferraro sits down with Development Associate Lane Gugger to break down F Street's massive 2025 and what's already in motion for 2026.

Lane, who underwrites deals and runs due diligence on both industrial acquisitions and multifamily developments, pulls back the curtain on:

The 2025 Scorecard:
• Industrial: 11 acquisitions across the country, 3.2 million square feet, over $30M in equity raised
• Multifamily: 3 developments completed (Oak Creek, Brown Deer, West Bend), plus breaking ground in West Allis
• Private Debt Fund: $141M loaned across 367 loans—the best year in the fund's 16-year history

The Process:
• How we source deals (80% from "power brokers," 20% from online listings like Crexi)
• The 7-point due diligence checklist Lane runs on every acquisition
• Why we're "not tire kickers"—and how that reputation gets us better deals
• The parallel path of multifamily development: entitlements, financing, TIF negotiations, and city approvals

2026 Preview:
• Targeting another 3M square feet of industrial (Ohio deals already under contract)
• 2-3 multifamily groundbreakings (Caledonia and more)
• Investor events: dinners, Brewers games, golf outing, and the annual Investor Summit

If you want to understand how we find, vet, and execute deals across our three investment sleeves, this is your inside look.
