Best Way To Acquire Multifamily Properties.
Assuming you had the money, is it better to pay for a property by yourself, is it better to get private money regardless, or is it better to leverage a partnership/group purchase even if you had the money for leverage? Just want to know everyone's opinion on the topic and why that stance was chosen. Thank you.

@Luke Miller I loved your comparison of buying an 800k apt complex myself vs investing in a syndication. And I agree. The numbers are slightly different but I once had a 1.3M apt under contract. I walked away and went into a syndication. It was beautiful. People underestimate the difficulty of doing those smaller deals. The risks can be substantial. One thing I've learned is this: when the bank starts getting nervous about your apartment deal, so should you. After all, they're your partner in the deal.
