Join us on Tuesday, March 14th at 6 pm for a panel discussion on syndications. Real estate syndications are a way for multiple investors to pool their resources and invest in larger, more lucrative real estate properties (commonly multi-family, storage, and other commercial classes). By partnering with experienced operators, investors can gain access to opportunities they may not be able to pursue alone. This allows investors to achieve greater returns while building a diversified portfolio. With the potential for higher profits and tax advantages, real estate syndication can be a powerful tool for building wealth.***

Notes: We will start the panel a little earlier than normal at 6:15 pm. We will be in a different room at the Elks Lodge again due to a special event. Hang a left at the front door and we will be in the space past the bar.

The panel will include Damian Lynch, who operates about a dozen syndications in Southern California. He works in all facets as a General Partner (GP) with deal finding, operating and fundraising. Next is Bjorn Beer who is a Limited Partner (LP) in several syndications and will describe his process for due diligence and “red flags” when making investments. Also on the panel will be James Furlo, also a syndication investor who is breaking into the operator side and will review notes from a recent fundraising conference he attended about finding partners and raising capital for syndications (or other group investments). Ryan Long will host the panel (feel free to forward any questions or topics you would like addressed to him at [email protected])

Meeting Date: Tuesday, March 14th

Time: Arrive at 6 pm for 6:15 start to the panel

Location: Corvallis Elks Lodge, 1400 NW 9th St, Corvallis, OR 97330

Drinks and a very limited dinner menu are available to purchase

$5 suggested donation at the door by cash or Venmo to cover facility rental

** Consult with your CPA or tax professional regarding potential tax benefits and depreciation recapture options at the disposition. All investments include risk, carefully review any opportunity against your tolerance, and time horizon while carefully vetting the "deal" and operators. Many syndications and other types of real estate partnerships are extremely illiquid.

We are holding our monthly meeting for networking and learning on February 7th - this coming Tuesday. I am extremely excited to learn creative financing strategies from Trevor Howard & Dane McKinney. Honestly, it will be amazing to just pick their brains for 30-45 minutes about deal finding and some of the ways they are structuring deals and finding capital. You don't want to miss this meeting!

Note: Our meetings are always held on the 2nd Tuesday night of the month. This meeting is a conflict with Valentine's Day and we decided to move the date to the 1st Tuesday of the month.

Linked files have advertised rentals rates for the past 3-6 months in each city. 1-2 bedrooms are almost identical rents across all three cities. Lebanon starts to lag in the 3-4 bedroom categories, but Corvallis and Albany match each other.

Corvallis purchase prices are still ~20% higher than the other two towns. Any speculation as to why rents aren't 20% higher? More run down rentals for students? Corvallis has premium price due to university giving stability??
