What are big investors doing in these times, spoiler: Multifamily

[Colton Hahn]

Hey BP Fam,

I wanted to share my what my experiences have been so far in these uncertain times talking with investors and what I have noticed from the big money investors we have.

Every day I talk to retail investors who are having a hard time deciding what to invest in during these shaky economic times, often times they watch the news and see nothing but doom and gloom and it reflects in their initial opinion of investing.  

More often than not they are more skittish to investing at all, and their initial reaction is to keep their money on the sidelines.

Juxtapose that with what our big investors are doing, I will use a conversation I had a few days ago with one of our larger investors. He had no issue dropping hundreds of thousands of dollars into our current syndication fund because of two reasons:

1. Real estate is NOT correlated to the bond or stock market.

2. When you do your due diligence, real estate has a higher rate of return than either bonds or stocks.

Curious what others are seeing and your opinions :)
