🎙 Passive Cash Flow Podcast EP.194 | Good Deals Are Back… But Capital Isn’t

In this episode of the Passive Cash Flow Podcast, host Aaron Fragnito sits down with Michael Zane, founder and Managing Partner at Lexcraft Advisors. Mike brings over a decade of high-level corporate experience from JPMorgan Chase and PwC to help middle-market real estate sponsors and family offices institutionalize their operations.

They dive deep into how real estate sponsors can prepare their businesses for institutional-level capital, the state of the 2026 multifamily market, and why a "back-office first" approach is essential for scaling a professional investment platform.
