Yo yo @Brennen Clouse - Networking networking and networking! 

If you have a network of a couple consistent buyers, that's all you'll ever need.

It seems to be focused in being a broker of COGO Capital loan programs or other private lenders within the Capital Syndicate network. 

It would also be important to network with other investors, stay informed about regional market shifts, and leverage any available incentives to maximize my investment potential.Good luck!

My target for the first fund would be $5-10 million and I have a few HNW investors in my network but certainly not enough.

I'd done some reading in the past and thought a few of the main Canadian banks had such specialty trust divisions that could help you with plan setup.As for finding investments, networking with other investors, real estate agents, etc. is the way to go.Brian, from what I've heard is that CAN banks  make it extremely difficult to setup. 

Hey @Amit Garg happy to help out with this as I'm pretty familiar with the various programs in Canada, as I've built quite a network over the past 10 years with investors across Canada and hear a lot of things.I think it would be best to jump on a call and talk about it.Without knowing more about you and your goals, it's hard to give a recommendation.

Continue to network with people in real estate, go to real estate meetups, connect with investors in the forums. 

Also, networking with investors already in commercial real estate could give you some great insights.

I’m Keagan, a realtor and investor based in Indianapolis, and I’ve worked with several clients on value-add multifamily deals and have done a couple myself.For finding off-market opportunities, I’d recommend:County Tax Delinquent Lists – Great for uncovering distressed properties.Direct Mail Campaigns – Target out-of-state owners.Local Networking Events – Connect with wholesalers who specialize in multifamily.I’d be happy to introduce you to lenders and share leads if Indy is on your radar.
