How to Find a Passive Real Estate Opportunity
Investing capital into a real estate syndication presents an exciting opportunity for many investors. Particularly if that capital was otherwise sitting in a savings account, IRA, or the stock market. An investor can own a piece of a large property, without any obligation to manage the day-to-day, and reap the benefits of cash-flowing real estate.
That raises the question: how do you find a real estate syndication? You can’t find them on Zillow or Redfin. Here are some ways to identify syndication opportunities:
- 1. Your circle
Most investors want to invest with people that they know, like, and trust. If folks in your circle syndicate, start there
- 2. Network with other real estate investors
Join real estate investment groups, attend real estate investment events, seminars, and conferences to meet other investors and build your network. Ask for referrals to real estate syndications and gather information about their experiences.
- 3. Search online
Use search engines to find real estate syndication websites or online platforms that connect investors with real estate opportunities. Some popular platforms include CrowdStreet, RealtyMogul, and EquityMultiple.
- 4. Consult with a financial advisor
A financial advisor may have folks in his/her network that syndicate real estate, and can also provide guidance on real estate syndications and help you evaluate the risks and rewards.
It's important to thoroughly research any real estate syndication opportunity and understand the terms and conditions before investing your money. This includes reviewing the investment proposal and verifying the track record and experience of the sponsor or syndicator.
