Post: Should I roll my SFHs into a Multi-Family apartment building

@Jassen Bowman I have worked as an engineer for almost 25 years and invested in SFH for almost as long. At this point I am looking to begin a new career where I have more control over my possible upside and schedule. With that being said the challenge of being able to force appreciation in MF deals is super attractive.

I have been reaching out to investors in my local network in order to gather equity for doing an Apartment syndication deal but it has been slow going. Therefore I was wondering if it would make sense to sell-out some of my cash-flowing SFH in order to generate the capital for the first deal. I am a bit hesitant to do this because several are completely paid off and with very good tenants.

Should I just be patient and continue working gathering passive investors or jump start the process with more of my own capital?

Has anyone else been in this position? 

Thanks,

TMG

@Austin Works I have been going through the Syndication school information provided by @Joe Fairless. It is pretty extensive and it is free which is crazy with the amount of content it provides.

I went ahead and bought his book “The Best Every Apartment Syndication Book” and it is ACTUALLY what the title says. I highly recommend it. I really like how it breaks out each step in the sequence of becoming an Apartment Syndicator.

Although I still feel like a mentor would be helpful for some of the specific details of doing things like underwriting and due diligence. I feel like 85% of the information required is out there if you look for it.
