Raising Money for Commercial & Industrial Real Estate

Can you raise outside capital to purchase commercial real estate?  What if you don't come from a business-minded family or have a circle of affluent friends?

In this episode I'm joined by Whitney Sewell, Founder and CEO of Life Bridge Capital, a private firm with over $125M in assets under management.  Whitney shares how he started with small projects and now raises upwards of $10M per project in a few hours.

Whitney also offers a number of actionable steps investors can take right now to raise capital, and even more importantly shares why he is working so diligently towards accomplishing his goals.
