Real Estate Syndication Strategies with Mike Morawski

Over a 30 year investing career, Mike Morawski has scaled a multifamily portfolio across Alabama, Texas, and Ohio. He started off as an agent, before transitioning to real estate syndication. The biggest adjustment Mike had to make was locking in on his investment criteria and raising private equity from investors. Initially, Mike took a less conventional path to find private investors. He attended real estate seminars and paid a premium for a sponsorship booth.

 

Mike also credits his education and mentors as a major key to his success in multifamily syndication. He created My Core Intentions to help educate and mentor other investors looking to grow their own portfolios. In addition, Mike is hosting the first Multifamily Global Summit, a virtual apartment investing event.

 

In this episode, Mike shares how he made the transition into real estate investing, tips for market selection, raising private equity, and the difference between a mentor and a coach.
