Best ways to find investor partners for multi family syndication?

[Adam Mitchell]

Hi BP community. I am looking for some ideas to find multi family investors looking for passive investment opportunities. Do you recommend any particular meetups with real investors or other networking events?

I am going to syndicate multi family deals and am looking to build my financial pipeline first. I have owned and managed single family rentals for 14+ years and am ready to move to multi family. Thanks for the advice.

Free advice is worth what you pay for it. Having said that, my two cents... Put together a detailed plan of attack to build your database of investors. The hardest and slowest piece to the syndication process and the one that even "seasoned" syndicators struggle with. And in this tumultuous climate it is only going to get worse. Not trying to dissuade you, just trying to keep it real and harden you for the journey. If you can do this you will find  many many doors that otherwise would remain closed. 

There are many ideas on how to do this and you are on the right path. Become a thought leader on as many platforms as reasonable can become a phenomenal pipeline to future potential investors.

Two great resources for this are Joe Fairless and Hunter Thompson both have written a book on the process that will give you at least a few years head start that most of us have had to learn the hard way.
