Why Listen To Jake & Gino?
Multifaceted multifamily is a term that we created to describe the complimentary streams of revenue that we have established in our multifamily business. The key is that all of the revenue streams are complimentary, and they develop a symbiotic relationship amongst the businesses and strengthen each business. These streams of income support and feed each other based on this harmonious relationship. The first stream of revenue was an investment property, followed by the management company. As we continued to expand our portfolio, we decided to create the education platform Jake & Gino. Once we decided to syndicate properties, we launched Our Property Management Company. Our charitable arm was developed as the philanthropic stream on the PM family of companies.
