Questions about Real Estate Syndication

Joel has been answering some of the questions he's been frequently ask. Here are three that I believe are important.

How is it that some people perform badly but their clients continue to invest with them?
Unbelievably, in the stock market, during turbulent times when things weren’t going well, even when investors were taking losses, the brokers would continue to get investment instructions from their clients, largely because they learn to be good communicators. If they called the client and they told them what was going on, the client would retain their confidence and continue moving forward. The issue of dealing with hardship is always one of communication. Be a good communicator, be honest, and people will respect the good effort that you make on their behalf.

How do you deal with some investors who want straight interest, while others want an equity position, or some who may want both?
If you have different kinds of investors who want different kinds of returns, you can create multiple classes inside of your operating agreement. You have to know what kind of investors you have access to. If you have investors who simply want a strong rate of return and a secure interest in the property that gets paid before others get paid, then structure a deal where they provide a certain kind of loan to the deal, while the equity investors get a subordinated interest in the property. By doing that, you can accommodate many different kinds of investors.

Should the syndicator always be a partner in the deal?

When the syndicator is an investor in the deal, it provides great confidence to the investors because you put your own money on the table. That puts you on the same side of the table as the investors. However, as a syndicator you have to ask yourself if you have enough money to put a lot into every deal. Putting a lot into every deal is contrary to the concept of leverage that the syndicator gets. Therefore the syndicator needs to take a small and properly calculated interest in each deal that he takes. And the syndicator needs to manage when the cash gets put into the deal. The syndicator does not necessarily have to write a check on day one to get into the deal. The syndicator may instead place that money into the deal over time, as his cash flow permits. There are strategies that we will discuss in the live seminar program that help the syndicator to manage this very delicate situation.

What is a Real Estate syndication?

by Nan Woodward
Connector


A syndication is truly a partnership; Usually in the form of private corporation. When we find a property for sale that has an unusual profit potential, we canvas individuals from our client lists to find a buyer, or we may find two or more buyers willing to form a partnership to purchase the property forming a syndicate. Its the partnership agreement of a syndicate that determines what kind of syndicate it is. Our syndicates are based on simple and straight forward partnership agreements, as we deal with experienced well qualified individuals who rely on the strength and experience of their partners rather than the existence of a lengthy, convoluted and complicated partnership agreement. We use one local lawyer, experienced with our history of syndications, to prepare the agreement, and individuals in the partnership seek independent advise from there own legal counsel before entering our syndicate.

Joel Block is holding a seminar in LA covering raising capital for Real Estate. Joel says:

It's no secret that investors who leverage their money profit more in real estate than others do. If you're one of the thousands who come across many real estate deals and you don't know how to get enough money to profit from them all, then this may be the most important article you read all year.

Let us explain. There are two sides to succeeding in real estate investing. First you must have intimate knowledge of the real estate market. Second you must have access to the money to capitalize on your real estate knowledge. If you have either one without the other, you won't be able to maximize your earning potential. But what if you could have both?

What if someone could show you how to leverage your real estate knowledge and get others to happily put up the money to build your real estate empire?

Joel, one of California's successful syndicators has agreed to show a few ambitious real estate professionals how to leverage their expertise instead of their money in order to generate profits several times greater than they ever thought possible in this one-of-a kind, closed-door event.

In fact, we guarantee you will not find this type of information readily available anywhere else at any price. There are very few people who have access to this insider information, and they're not talking. And why should they share the business secrets that are making them rich?

Please listen to the preview call and judge for yourself. The event will be held in LA, the last weekend in May. I'd like to connect you with Joel to discuss your possible promotion of this life worldclass event for everyone's mutual benefit.

Real Estate Markets are Uncertain Today

Stocks are jumping all over the place. Bear Stear is being bought out by JPMorgan. Investors are concerned.

the dollar is sinking against the euro, oil plunged, the Nikkei stock average fell.

when will this stop???

First Time buyers are creating Upsurge

The market is becoming a bit more viable. First time buyers are in the first time buyer's market of this century. Sellers are more willing to work with buyers.

Borrowers with good credit and a downpayment will see flexibility. At this point lenders are not accepting those with credit issues and no down payments.

The recent Fed changes make it less likely that there will be a meltdown in the housing industry. The fed is taking the bad loans off the banks books. Central banks in Canada and Europe are injecting money into their financial systems at the same time.

The dollar rose against the euro and the yen based on these announcements. The slipping dollar has driven up oil prices to record leves. Oil is priced in dollars.

The future looks brigher today.
