Greetings Fellow Future/Current Millionaires

[Robert Wright]

Hello BiggerPockets Community,

I'm Robert, an entrepreneur and aspiring real estate investor currently focused on the BRRRR method with a primary interest in central Pennsylvania markets. While local deals are a top priority, I'm also open to opportunities in Jacksonville, Florida, given the promise of strong returns and growth potential.

I'm actively building my skills and knowledge in fix-and-flip investments, value-add projects, and creative financing strategies. My goal is to scale beyond single-family rentals and small multifamily units, and I'm eager to learn how investors break into the larger apartment complex deals—especially using other people’s money or with a low initial investment.

I'm open to syndications, joint ventures (JVs), and partnership structures that allow for a lower capital outlay while maximizing potential upside. I’d love to hear from those who’ve made the leap into bigger deals:

• -What were your first steps into large multifamily/apartment complexes?
• -What creative strategies, syndicates, or JV arrangements worked best for minimizing personal cash invested?
• -Any regional insights for central PA or Jacksonville multifamily?

Looking forward to connecting, sharing ideas, and growing together!

—Robert

Hey @Robert Wright, nice to meet you here on BP! Your approach lines up closely with what I do. I focus on spreading smaller amounts of capital across multiple deals to diversify risk while still participating in larger opportunities. In our Co-Investing Club, we all have access to bigger projects without needing to put up all the cash ourselves.

Breaking into larger apartment complexes really comes down to vetting operators and deals thoroughly. Starting small, analyzing each opportunity carefully, and gradually scaling across multiple markets, like you’re doing with central PA and Jacksonville, is the best way to gain experience and build confidence while managing risk.
