The Lead Sponsor - Real Estate Investing Through Syndications and Funds

In this episode, Jake Brackenwagen shares how he started thinking and reading about real estate investing at the early age of 14. Despite pressure from his parents to take the traditional route of attending college and becoming a doctor, Jake decided to blaze his own trail and ended up buying his first investment property while he was still in high school and acquired over 80 properties before the age of 21. Jake also shares how he is moving up into larger multifamily buildings and talks about his 16 unit acquisition. ABOUT OUR GUEST:After completing 1 semester in college Jake hit real-estate hard, becoming a millionaire before he could buy his first beer, he now looks to the future to do larger multifamily syndication deals, double down on his single-family portfolio and creating the simplest easy to follow course on creative investing so others can do exactly what he's done.

In this episode, Nate Leavitt from 1031 Exchange Place joins us to talk about common mistakes and challenges investors face when going through a 1031 exchange. We also discuss the process of moving from an active investor role to a more passive investor through a 1031 exchange into a TIC (tenants in common) Syndication. ABOUT OUR GUEST: Nate first became interested in the 1031 industry from a young age and began working with his father in the space right after graduating from high school. Years later, Nate and his father are now business partners and provide 1031 intermediary and advisory services.
