Syndication need help!!!

[Adrian Williams]

How would one go about gaining capital to become a silent investor/limited partner, say for real estate or some other business?

Also does anyone know of any programs or sources I can use since active duty soldier to invest into endeavors (besides using the VA loan)? Have been considering a limited partnership with a syndication team due to my work schedule I came to conclusion that's best bet at the moment. Just would like some guidance from this great network would be very much appreciated, thanks in advance.

Thank you for your service.  Hopefully you can get into investing soon.

I have not heard of any one making loans to become a limited partner in a syndication.  Typically the syndications themselves will take on leverages, so loaning funds for the equity would be double leveraged. 

I have read of many active duty soldiers getting started in real estate by buying rent properties in each location in which they are stationed. Given the favorable VA loans and a large group of prospective (soldier) tenants, it makes for a good model. You just need to know how to identify a good rental, learn how to manage it while you are stationed there, and identify a good property manager for when you change assignments. After a few years you may find yourself with several cashflowing properties with growing equity.

Good luck
