You'll learn about creating the foundation for a long-term real estate portfolio in this conversation with Jim Diamond, CEO of Diamond Properties, which was founded in 1995 and has acquired more than 125 properties, including office, warehouse, retail, residential, and land. Its affiliate Diamond Hospitality Group also owns and operates businesses under Save Haven Self Storage, Velocity Flexible Workspace, Spins Bowl, District Social, and other brands.

You'll hear about shifting into industrial real estate, buying below replacement cost, and holding assets for decades rather than chasing short-term exits. Jim explains how long-term, buy-and- hold structures align investor incentives and how operating businesses like self-storage and solar installations fit into a broader model to generate cash flow and returns.
