Primary host with brand account + co-host with personal account-Pros: Could continue to scale and then sell all listings & account together as a business rather than strictly real estate assets (more valuable with the 10 cabin property than with the SFH STRs).

How do you gain more confidence as an LP? 

Once you start to get people in there to look at project to project, that will give you a baseline then you'll start to gain more knowledge on where you need to be on the pricing/estimates etc.

Starting with an owner-occupied duplex is a smart way to build equity and gain experience.

Quote from @Account Closed: For someone rebuilding their real estate business and looking to transition into larger multifamily deals, what’s the most effective way to position yourself as a valuable partner in syndications—especially when capital is limited but market knowledge, deal-finding ability, and local expertise are strengths?

*Look for properties where you can gain immediate equity by buying at a low price.

Leverage your existing equity to invest in smaller properties, such as a mixed-use or retail space, to gain experience and cash flow.

And while these groups help you a lot with the actual strategy, the best part is the network you'll gain which pushes you 10 times further then googling all the free stuff.

Very helpful and valuable insight. 

I had the chance to meet him this past weekend at a summit in Virginia, and I found him to be incredibly kind and full of valuable insights.
