Old Capital Real Estate Investing Podcast with Michael Becker & Paul Peebles

Beware of internet scammers when it comes to raising money for apartment investing. In the first part of the podcast, Paul discusses a real problem that recently occurred to one of his borrower. The sponsor’s email address and database were hacked. The scammers sent out emails to the borrower’s investor database asking for $250,000 for additional rehab on an apartment building owned by the borrower. The scammer offered an unbelievable 45% rate of return. The scammers false email address was close to the borrower original- except a small “i” was added into their faux email address. Fortunately, a few spelling errors were caught by alert passive investors that felt that the email was fake and reported it. BEFORE sending money to your general partner, make sure that the transaction is real and the wiring instructions are correct.

Michael gives general partners tips on what limited partners need to make an investing decision.

Real estate is easy; people can be hard. In apartment syndications, general partners need equity. That equity comes from limited partners. Not all limited partners are going to be easy to work with AFTER you close. Setting the correct investment expectations with the limited partners at the beginning of the transaction is very important. Michael also discusses how he has dealt with a challenging investor.
