How much real estate would you buy if money was not a limiting factor? I’m guessing the answer is that there is no limit and you would buy all you could. If that’s not your answer then this article probably isn’t for you.
It seems that everyone is on the hype wagon that is multifamily syndication. Everywhere you turn someone is espousing the virtues of passively investing in an apartment complex through some Deal Sponsors project.

The way to do that is to learn to delegate.
