Hello BP,
I am curious to know more about using crowdfunding to fund real estate deals. I am wondering if anyone in the New England Area, Especially New Hampshire or Massachusetts Area has done it or may even know of a local source?
Crowdfunding through Reg CF isn't that popular in real estate because there is a limit to how much capital a company can raise. Investors who raise capital to do deals tend to use two exemptions to registration, Reg D Rule 506(b) or 506(c). There are a ton of people in New England doing deals that way. The RE Mentor organization in Boston is totally based around teaching people how to syndicate deals, particularly in multifamily.
@Taylor L. Thank You so much Taylor. You wouldnt happen to have a contact for someone at the RE mentor organization?
The quickest thing to do would be to contact them through their website: https://rementor.com/
Before you dig into any one syndication thought leader/education company, take plenty of time to learn for free. There are a ton of free resources about syndication that you can find on BP and via Google. It probably won't be enough to help you do a deal, but you can learn the basics for free before paying someone oodles of money to show you the ropes.
