New and exploring Syndications

[Anish Koshy]

Hi everyone,

I am new to the community and looking forward to learning more. I am primarily interested in syndications (I am accredited) and would love to learn more as well as meet like minded folks to discuss how they embarked on this journey.

thanks in advance!

Hey all

I'm curious.  I would most likely never invest in a syndication, but it seems like this would be a great opportunity to "buy low" based on all of the failed ones I'm seeing. 

Are today's syndicators that are buying yesterday's failures getting good deals?  Or are interest rates, rents, etc. still out of whack and making profiting difficult assuming now as time zero?  Or, are the failed projects going to kingmade investors that have "special" relationships with the lending banks? 

I'm just curious to know how these failed deals will eventually unroll.  Thanks.

 Most of these failed deals are being given back to the banks or bid at auction but the average size of these deals is 8 figures. Yes there is plenty of opportunity out there right now. I would say these are not deals for a retail investor.

Regarding investing in syndications, its really a personal choice of being passive and trusting people when real estate is not your specialty - similar to stocks - I do not manage my stock portfolio because I am clueless on it and my wife is 1000x smarter than I am and manages it. It boils down to education and understanding more than anything.
