In this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan sits down with Jonah Bamberger, managing partner and executive chairman of Aulder Capital. Jonah shares the full arc of his real estate journey—from early value-add deals in Brooklyn to large-scale multifamily, hospitality, and international development in Portugal.

What began as a side project with a friend quickly became a full-time business as the duo capitalized on post-2008 opportunities. Jonah dives into how Aulder Capital adapts to shifting markets, navigates regulatory hurdles, and chooses when to pivot between markets, asset classes, and hold periods. He also talks about the realities of managing thousands of units, dealing with difficult tenants, and maintaining high performance while still aiming to make a positive community impact.

Whether you're an active investor, passive LP, or someone exploring international real estate, this episode offers a real-world perspective on how to scale with discipline and intention.

In this episode, you will hear:

• How Jonah got started in Brooklyn with rent-stabilized, value-add multifamily deals

• Why Aulder Capital expanded from New York to the Southeast, Midwest, and even Portugal

• The pros and cons of holding vs. flipping, and how market conditions drive those decisions

• What it really takes to manage thousands of units and stay mission-focused

• How syndications allow newer investors to get exposure without the management stress
