JF 4066: Creative Conversions, Private Money and Profitable Systems ft. Adam Craig
About this episode
On this week’s episode of Beyond Multifamily, Ash Patel and Amanda Cruise interview Adam Craig. Adam shares how he transitioned from single-family investing into commercial real estate, specializing in heavy lift office and mixed-use projects across the Cleveland market. He walks through the lessons learned from a 30,000-square-foot rehab that tested his patience and capital, then contrasts it with a more recent success—transforming a vacant dentist office into profitable salon suites. Adam also opens up about his funding partnerships, systemizing his property management, and how strategic rehabs and BRRRR-style refinancing have built long-term cash flow and equity across his portfolio.
