Great episode this week with Dante Belmonte, who is a broker, syndicator, and the man behind the well-known "MultifamilyMadness" Twitter account. Dante began his career in real estate in the brokerage world and is still actively brokering deals in upstate NY. As he was growing his brokerage business, he began seeking value-add multifamily deals. He began purchasing assets throughout North Carolina and raised over $1M for his first deal!

In this episode, Dante and I discuss the rising interest rate environment and how we're now underwriting and evaluating deals. We also talk about building deal flow, working with brokers, and raising capital for your first deal. Additionally, we discuss Dante's Twitter account and how he leverages his following to grow his business. This is a great episode!
