Jeff Copeland is a Real Estate Investment Expert and fellow Tampa Bay resident.

Jeff is the Co-Founder of Copeland Morgan, LLC, a multifaceted real estate firm that handles everything from direct investments, brokerage, property management, and construction services.    

Quote:

“I think there are still ways to stay competitive in [the Tampa Bay] market and one of them is the infamous Value-Ad property…negotiate and buy it based on how its performing now with a realistic plan for year 1, year 2, and what are we going to do to help it cash-flow better, generate more income, and reduce the expenses.”

“Rents are always going to lag real estate prices because most leases are locked in for a year or so, and so you see them jump on an annual basis where the sales prices go up on an even curve.”

“One of the things we don’t have in the Tampa Bay market is the high-wage jobs. We don’t have the Silicon Valley in our backyard…we are still a service-based economy, a tourism-based economy, a healthcare-based economy.”

Highlights:

02:32 - Jeff tells listeners more about his background in real estate.

06:32 - Jeff dissects Tampa Bay market growth.

08:26 - Jeff discusses how investors can stay competitive in his market.

17:31 - Jeff discusses opportunities for other investors across Tampa and different counties.

21:13 - Jeff dives into what he’s excited about outside of real estate.

22:54 - Jeff answers Kevin’s golden nugget question.

Jerome Maldonado began his career in direct sales, where he was first introduced to team building, sales techniques, and real estate concepts.

With much success came the need for expansion. Understanding the simple concepts and benefits of leasing real estate, he purchased multi-use retail and commercial property to house his business. Over the span of his 20+ year real estate career, Jerome has done over $200 million in transactions, with $52 million in 2021 alone.

“I didn’t build this business model for you. I didn’t go out and say I was going to build an educational platform to teach people how to do this.  I built this business model for myself, for my family.”
