Taking down a $6.5 million real estate deal might seem like an unlikely feat for a rookie investor, but it’s not if you use other people’s money. When today’s guest had a large portfolio of multifamily properties fall into his lap, he exhausted all of his resources to bring it home—dodging multiple curveballs along the way!
In this episode of the Real Estate Rookie podcast, we’re diving into the world of syndication with investor Andrew Freed. Real estate syndications can be a great way to build a real estate portfolio without using much of your own money, but this investing strategy also requires careful planning and coordination.
