what advantages would a syndication investment have over a SFR,MFR investments
Is it advisable to prefer syndications over owing a SFR,MFR either for a cashflow perspective or market appreciation?

Hi @Gopichand N.. Great question. Good reply from @AJ Shepard.
If I am investing my hard-earned capital and savings into any investment, I’ve come to the conclusion that I don’t want to invest it with anybody who’s not a total pro. Especially in this difficult competitive market. That includes myself. Though I flipped homes for years and I’m now in commercial real estate, I would never invest with myself unless I was 100% fully committed and obsessive over getting the best deal, and operating it well, and eventually selling it for top dollar. I’ve concluded that it’s very hard to do that if you have a full-time career and you’re trying to do that on the side. For that reason, I would recommend a syndication if that’s your situation.
if, however, you have time to devote all of your efforts to it, you may be happier being the captain of your own ship and investing in single-family or multi family real estate. Though I am full-time in real estate investing, I still choose to invest with professional operators. Happy investing!
