Which to Obtain First: A Deal or the Syndication

[Kyle Davis]

Hello there!

I'm still a relative "rookie" when it comes to real estate investing.  I have about 60 doors is all, but looking to grow that exponentially.  I'm curious about the Syndication model....but wondering about how to go about it.  At this moment, all my deals have been done by myself (funded through the local bank and/or creative financing....so no partners).  To do some larger unit transactions, I know I will need partners.  But what should "come first"?  The deal or creating the Syndication?  If Syndication should come first....what do I tell the potential members?  Let me hold onto your money until a deal comes?  Sorry...maybe that's a stupid question!

Any insight would be appreciated!
