Gaining Entry into real estate by building a service business

[Cameron Dierking]

I have become obsessed with the idea of owning real estate over the past couple of years. I have started a business within the last year to make some extra money, so I can begin investing. My company is beginning to come off the ground but I currently have to keep reinvesting in my business to keep it moving forward. I feel that I’m close to the point where I can start investing some of my profits into real estate. 

I am looking more towards partnering in real estate deals, and am willing to do the foot work in the partnership with the right deal. I just don’t know exactly where to begin in this process. I have been looking into syndication, but I don’t have experience enough to do that yet. 

Any advice or small success stories would help a lot! Thank You!

You can start with books like "The Hands-off Investor" by Brian Burke and also listen to podcasts like "The Real Estate Syndication Show" by Whitney Sewell. They can definitely add insight on investing with Syndications. The best way to get started in syndication is to mock up a deal as if you were going to present it to an investor. You don’t know what you don’t know, until you actually do it. Having something tangible or developed is the key. You can also start as an LP investor while learning the ropes. Best of luck on your RE investing journey!
