Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Ex-SpaceX Engineer Reinventing the American Home with Riley Meik (#421)
Q: What is the core market you are targeting with Roe Homes and the first principles approach?
The target is young families needing affordable, private, and denser housing in desirable neighborhoods; Roe Homes is the product decision that fits this customer, with a focus on in-fill urban cores rather than stand-alone suburbs.
The World's Biggest Investors Are Buying Real Estate Again with Mark Gibson, CEO of JLL, Capital Markets, Americas (#423)
Q: Broadly speaking, what are the companies going to start looking like in this next wave?
Investors will demand operational excellence on the ground, with a blended model where owner-operators and investment managers collaborate to deliver both execution and disciplined capital management. Scale matters because of reporting and data capabilities, but nimble specialists will still thrive in niches.
#404 - Chris Huckabee - Founder @ MORE Group - From Founder-Led to Private Equity Backed
Q: What was the turning point that convinced you to move forward with PE and how did the initial deal unfold?
The initial process showed that public valuation and private equity expectations needed alignment. After extensive preparation, the LOI arrived, we negotiated within a defined line, and closed in 32 days after a rapid but careful process that balanced the interests of employees and stakeholders.
#404 - Chris Huckabee - Founder @ MORE Group - From Founder-Led to Private Equity Backed
Q: What were the key preparations before engaging in the PE process, especially on the financial side?
We built an institutional finance function, audited financials, and expanded the bench with legal, integration, and M&A expertise so we could present a credible platform to PE buyers and accelerate diligence.
#404 - Chris Huckabee - Founder @ MORE Group - From Founder-Led to Private Equity Backed
Q: How did you approach selecting the right private equity partner given you had never worked with one before?
I focused on philosophical alignment, long-term character, and the value they could add beyond money. I interviewed multiple firms, insisted they understand my space, and involved my leadership in the decision process, ultimately selecting a partner who demonstrated true alignment and the ability to help with a governance and operations bench.
