Looking to Connect and Learn — Working With U.S. Investors

[Manuel Sequeira]

👋 Hey everyone!
I’m Manuel — I’m based in Portugal, but I work closely with a U.S.-based lending team to support real estate investors across the country with funding for their projects.

Most of the people I connect with are flipping, doing BRRRs, or scaling rental portfolios, and I help them navigate funding options that are quick and flexible — especially when traditional financing doesn’t fit the timeline.

I joined BiggerPockets to learn from experienced investors, build relationships, and be a helpful resource where I can.

🔍 I’m curious — for those of you who’ve raised capital before, what was the hardest part: speed, approvals, structure, or something else?
