Rhizome Partner's Bill Chen's post-NAREIT takeaways (podcast #321)
In this episode of Yet Another Value Podcast, host Andrew Walker welcomes back Bill Chen of Rhizome Partners, one of the platform's most popular and deeply knowledgeable guests in real estate investing. Fresh from attending NAREIT, Bill unpacks trends across the public and private real estate sectors, offering a unique vantage on REIT performance, multifamily fundamentals, and the developing divergence in valuation metrics. The discussion spans topics from rent regulation in New York, to capital allocation discipline among REITs, and dives into lesser-understood niches like grocery-anchored retail and net lease offices. Andrew and Bill blend data with real-time market observations to help listeners better understand value opportunities in today’s real estate landscape.

Fintool is ChatGPT for SEC Filings and earnings calls. Are you still doing keyword searches and going to the individual filing and using control F? That’s the old way of doing things before AI. With Fintool, you can ask any question and it’s going to automatically generate the best answer. So they may pull from a portion of an earnings call, or a 10k, whatever it may be and then answer your question. The best part- every portion of the answer is cited with the source document.
Now- if you’ve tried to do any of this in ChatGPT you may know that the answers are often wrong or hallucinations. The way Fintool is able to outperform ChatGPT is their focus on the SEC filings. If you’re an analyst or a portfolio manager at a hedge fund, check them out at https://fintool.com/
