Sustainable Real Estate Investing with Seth Nowak

Mar 31

In a world with millions of rental properties, very few landlords are thinking beyond the single bottom line. The mainstream dogma of the industry teaches new investors to just focus on the numbers, yet ignores the potential impact that an investor can make by infusing sustainability into their properties and portfolios.

Seth Nowak is a real estate investor that has a long history in the environmental movement. He is aligning his investing business with his values and his expertise to blaze a trail that is sorely needed in the real estate industry. His approach is not only rooted in sound real estate investing fundamentals, but is also providing a template and a philosophy that is practical and easy to follow.

On this episode of The Regenerative Real Estate Podcast Seth talks about his background in environmental policy, how he approaches real estate investing, and the things that he does to look multidimensionally at real estate investing through social, environmental, and economic lenses.

For anyone interested in real estate investing to do well and to do good, this is a must listen.
