Newbie looking at commercial deals

Trey Lusk
Posted Jan 16 2022, 13:21

Hello all,

New investor, have not done any deals yet. I’ve done a lot of research, reading, analyzing, etc. and I’m hungry to get started.  A recent episode of the biggerpockets podcast(541) opened my mind to more than small multi family’s and has me looking into small apartment complexes and even a 61 space RV park. I’ve done my research on the residential side but the commercial side is completely foreign to me. I’m looking for anyone that can help me make one of these deals happen, and any kind of books/videos/ articles you recommend to help me learn how to get a property over a million dollars financed. Thank you all for your time, and I look forward to your responses!

Respectfully,
Trey Lusk

Hey @Trey Lusk I just finished The Real Book of Real Estate by Robert Kiyosaki and I could not put it down. The book interviews successful people in real estate about finding deals, development, financing, law, etc. I think it should help. 

I am a new investor as well, feel free to connect.

@Trey Lusk Joe Fairless' Best Ever Apartment Syndication book is a great read if you would like to put together a syndication.

@Brian briscoe's podcast The Diary of an Apartment Investor is also a great place to learn.
