**Presenter: Gaulter Amarelo ** Owning a profitable property doesn’t necessarily mean your money is working efficiently.

In this 45-minute session, multifamily investor and operator Gualter Amarelo will challenge attendees to look beyond cash flow and appreciation and ask a different question: What is the equity in your property actually earning you today?

Using real-world examples, Gualter will break down Return on Equity (ROE) and show how a property that has appreciated significantly can quietly become an inefficient use of capital. He’ll explore how experienced investors evaluate whether to hold, refinance, sell, or redeploy equity—and how multifamily real estate can fit into that strategy.

Attendees will learn:

How to calculate the true return on the equity sitting in a property Why appreciation can actually cause your ROE to decline over time How to evaluate the decision to hold vs. refinance vs. sell How experienced multifamily operators identify discounted opportunities and create value through operations How to shift from simply owning properties to strategically allocating capital Gualter will leave attendees with one powerful question:

“If all of your equity were sitting in cash today, would you invest it back into the property you currently own?”

For anyone who owns investment property, has accumulated significant equity, or is exploring ways to generate passive income through real estate, this session offers a new framework for deciding what your capital should do next.
