Syndicating is the new game in commercial real estate

Syndicating is the new game in commercial real estate

I finished teaching the syndication training in California last month and am so excited about the great response and positive energy it created. Not only have I taught the program personally, which I do not do that often but also it helped me launch the new Masters Program series of advanced trainings for all members interested in increasing their depth of knowledge and real estate activities.

Syndicating is simply getting a qualified group of investors to pool their money together and give it to you, the syndicator, to acquire, manage and resell the property at a later date profitably, ethically and legally.

You, as the syndicator do not need to be licensed, do not need to have money and do not even need to have all the pieces together when you start. You do however have to follow certain legal steps to be in compliance with Securities and Exchange Commission.

I made a tremendous effort in that training to demonstrate the detailed step by step method to syndicate. From how to advertise and solicit qualified investors to selecting the property and the legal paper entities and paper work needed. I explained how to work with attorney to draft the private placement memorandum and the operating agreement. These documents allow you the full disclosure to the investors and the total power in the deal to operate the asset profitably.  

Syndicating is truly investing at its finest. If you are starting in the commercial real estate investing or you are an expert broker or even a seasoned developer, let me tell you that the game has changed, just in case you haven’t noticed. While there are better deals out there, most Buyers are unable to complete their transactions. Banks want more down payments, higher property income, more credit and guarantees from the buyers, more data from the sellers etc. making the commercial real estate transaction a headaches if not a nightmare.

If you start syndicating and getting the people that have small down payments together, the overall purchase power becomes stronger, the risk is reduced and the group gets a competitive advantage.

If you want to learn more about how you can syndicate your next deal, I may hold just one or two of these weekend training events. The investment is $1,495 for the members and there may be a discount fo those who book in advance. If interested please email my Business Manager Ms. Ashlee Jones at: AJones@Dynetech.com

Let the syndications begin…

Sincerely,
