On The Market
Chapters
Shownotes Transcript
Are real estate syndications) dead? Some multifamily syndicators are making capital calls) and **hiding information **from investors who anxiously wait (and pray) for their money to be returned. A lot is going wrong, so **should you pause investing in real estate syndications **for now, or should you write them off entirely? Brian Burke, who saw it coming and sold almost everything before prices fell, is on today to give us his answer.
Joining him is a fellow syndication investor and BiggerPockets CEO,** Scott Trench**, who’s had his fair share of syndication headaches over the past few years. We’re going back in time, talking about what exactly went wrong for multifamily syndications, why we saw a rise in untrustworthy/inexperienced syndicators entering the market, and why multifamily specifically is taking the majority of the headwinds.
We’re also sharing the numbers on the almost unbelievable amount of multifamily investors who have short-term loans coming due, all at a time when interest rates) are still high and values are close to (if not at) the bottom. We’ll even** talk about our own failed deals **and whether or not we’d continue investing in syndications.
