'From Medical Devices to $2B in Real Estate
Guest: Chris Larsen, Next-Level Income
What happens when a former medical device professional takes his precision, risk management skills, and analytical mindset into the world of real estate investing?
You get Chris Larsen, the founder of Next-Level Income and this week’s podcast/YouTube show guest, who has placed $120M+ in equity across $2B in acquisitions as a capital allocator.
Mastering the Capital Allocator Model
Chris started as an active investor, acquiring multifamily, self-storage, and mobile home parks directly. As his network and experience grew, so did his role, evolving into a capital allocator who partners with sponsors to raise capital for them. By negotiating preferential terms and structuring his investments through funds, he helps investors access deals with higher returns than they would be able to investing directly with the sponsor.
Navigating Risk, Reward, and Market Challenges
With interest rate volatility and shifting market conditions, Chris has seen both wins and losses. Some deals have outperformed, while others have faced capital calls and suspended distributions - a reality many sponsors are dealing with today.
His approach?
Absolute transparency and strong relationships, the same principles that guided his career in the world of medical devices.
The Power of Investor Relationships
Chris has built a 300+ investor network largely through referrals, podcasts, and his book funnel. His ability to bridge his expertise from one high-risk industry to another makes his insights invaluable for anyone looking to navigate real estate investing like a seasoned pro.
