Any comments about your experience so far in the Warrior Program?

The Warrior program is great. We’ve had an amazing experience and are grateful for everything we have learned. We also learned to be cautious of who we associate with within the Warrior program and do business with. Be cautious of the deals that are presented, the person and their involvement on the deal.

Financing is 6.3 % interest amortize for 25 years at 67% LTV. There is no bridge debt for this deal.

Was this a joint venture or syndication?

Syndication

How did you raise the equity?

Raising equity through syndication. Having several calls to reach potential investors and inform them of this particular deal. Reaching out to fund to fund partners as well.

What was the equity raise?

$3,000,000

What are some hurdles you had to overcome to get this deal done?

The biggest hurdle was raising capital. The deal is closed but there is still some equity captal still availble to raise. At this time, too many investors are holding back investing in MF deals.

What are some of the lessons you learned with this deal?

Being prepared to raise capital. Initially, we were not ready to raise the capital as the KP mention they had investors wanting to inject between $2MM – $3MM onto this deal. When the potential investors did not inject their respective funds, we had to raise capital. Scrambling to reach potential investors was daunting as we were not prepared.

Although we have numerous documented successful deals from our coaching students, we cannot track all of our students’ results, and therefore cannot provide a typical result. You should assume that the average person makes little to no money or could lose money as there is work and risk associated with investing in real estate.
