Resources for an investor not a GP

[David VanWert]

Hi Everyone,

Been doing a ton of research lately, reading books, listening to podcasts, reading the forums, etc......

It seems nearly everything I come across is geared toward becoming a GP, getting deals, raising funds etc......

However, that is not what I’m looking for, I own my own successful company, love it, and not looking to give that up, strictly looking to invest. How do I find resources more geared toward LP investors only? I am actively researching investing in MF buy and hold syndications and looking for more info to educate myself.

I would really like to find resources/lists of potential sponsors, real world examples of previous deals, what actual returns were for LP’s and other various resources for LP’s. 

I understand I could reach out to potential syndicators but I would prefer to do some initial research on my own early on, fully educate myself on pros/cons, potential returns, narrow down potential sponsors and then reach out to a short list to vet before starting deals.  

Any help or feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
