Everyone thinks AI just discovered real estate investing. It didn't. One investor cracked this code back in 2009, before AI even had a name, using a data-driven bet on a market everyone else avoided, and built a fund that now runs with zero human underwriters. It started with a $90,000 house nobody else wanted.
He used that system to grow to the peak of over a billion dollars in AUM in real estate alone, ranking hundreds of cities a year for profitability before ever making a single offer.
I am Ryan Miller, and on Making Billions this week, my guest is Neal Bawa, CEO & Founder at Grocapitus, a commercial Real Estate investment company.
Together, Neal and I break down his city scoring method, the LASAL framework for catching failing properties before they fail, and how AI replaced his entire underwriting department.
