@Reid Mathews I cannot talk about Grant as i personally din't invest in his funds but read and heard his podcasts. Very informative and great person, fond of his marketing strategies.
In general about your MF investment, I personally invest passively and actively do MF Syndication deals.
So when you look at the investments identify your goals, risk/returns and time frame. Then look for Markets that you like to invest in, research the market, identify the local MF syndicators, research on their past deals, talk to investors who were part of their investments and look in to their current offerings, projections on rents or value add is it realistic to market, do some basic analysis on offering market rents, crime, jobs, developments, population in that area.
It sounds a lot of work but it is not as it sounds for a smart guy like you who work with numbers. End of the day its your hard earned money and do what is best for your money. Due diligence is the most
important thing, always compare multiple offerings in the same market by different Syndicators to get an idea. Happy to help, feel free to PM me if you have any questions. Happy New Year and Happy Investing.
