The Multifamily Wealth Podcast

In this episode, I'm discussing a common misconception in the real estate industry - the idea that if you find a great deal, the money will automatically come to you.  While finding a good deal is important, it's not enough to secure funding. Investors need to know and trust the individual proposing the deal, and it's up to us as sellers to establish credibility and build a network of investors.Struggling to find good multifamily deals?

Join The Multifamily Wealth Community, where we help multifamily investors start, build, and scale their businesses… specifically, those looking to grow from 1-10 units to 250+ units.Are you looking to invest in real estate, but don't want to deal with the hassle of finding great deals, signing on debt, and managing tenants?
