How did you get into syndications?

[Kyle Curtin]

My partner Brian Ortins up in MA introduced this sector to me and I freakin fell in love with it… Multiple books and many podcasts later it has been a blast to learn about this sector of the industry and build relationships with you guys across the country! I have been building out the investor relations role and trying to learn as much as possible and share as much value as possible as I can!

🙂 How did you guys jump in?

I started out in flipping and had a goal of achieving $10,000/mo of passive income.
I figured I'd need 50 single family homes to do this. OR I could switch to syndication and achieve this much faster by acquiring more units. 


In 2011, one of my wholesalers contacted me about a 12-unit apartment building in Washington, DC, he had under contract. It was listed by one of his residential realtors, and he thought I should take a look at it. I ended up closing on the deal—with none of my own money ( I didn't have any money to invest at that time so it taught me how to raise capital quickly.) 

That is how I got started.
