At Shield Capital we specialize in investing in, managing, and selling multifamily properties. We’re a multifamily syndication business, which means we pool money from investors to purchase an apartment complex. This generally results in great returns for our investors. 

As the syndicator (or “General Partner” or “Sponsor”) we find, analyze and close the deals. We work closely with a property management company to manage the apartment complex and improve it before we sell it for a profit that we’ll share with you.

Depending on the deal, as our limited partner (or “passive investor”) you may also earn a return on your investment through the rent payments.

In our experience, the returns have been much higher than other types of investments, and have had a more stable trajectory. There are also tax advantages to investing in multifamily.

Investing in syndication means you’re able to buy a larger deal than you might be able to personally since funds are pooled from many investors.

One of the great things about investing passively is that you don’t have to worry about the day-to-day operations and the execution of the business plan. We handle all of that and just communicate with you to keep you informed about how things are going.

Excellent question. 

Doing your research and asking the right questions is key for finding the investment opportunity that’s best for you. As no two syndicators or deals are alike, we suggest asking questions like …

“Who’s the syndicator/sponsor and who are they working with?” 

We understand that you entrust your hard-earned money to the syndicator to create a return for you. That’s why you want to know as much as possible about them. You want to trust that they can make you money. Try to get to know them, their team and what they stand for.

”Investment periods vary. They range from 1 or 2 years, up to 10+ years, with the average being 3-7 years. Every syndication business takes a slightly different approach, and a lot depends on the deal.

A common scenario is to have some modest cash flow starting from rents within the first couple of years, maybe increasing gradually, and then the big payout at the end when the property is sold or refinanced.

It’s your money, and you have goals and needs that are specific to you, so find a deal that works for you.

For example, maybe you want to retire in 10 years and want to increase your investment as much as possible. Or maybe you know you’ll have something else you’ll want the money to be available for in a few years and a shorter-term deal would be a better fit. Find a deal with the investment period that’s in line with your financial goals.

“What’s the minimum return on investment (ROI) I’d accept?”

Multifamily deals vary. That’s why you cannot assume that the ROI of one deal is the same as a previous deal. Always get the necessary information on the ROI and see if it’s what you realistically expect.

Another good question. Of course, you’ll want to speak to your accountant to find out exactly which tax benefits you’re eligible for. But there is potential to save thousands of dollars. If you meet certain requirements you could benefit from:

▪️ Depreciation benefits

▪️ Using your self-directed IRA

▪️ A 1031 Exchange

These are a few possible ways you can give yourself a tax break and save money.

We recommend that you talk to a professional accountant to make sure you maximize your savings.

For most deals, you can start investing with $50,000 - $100,000. Some real estate investment platforms will accept smaller investment amounts, but most private real estate syndications begin at a minimum investment of $50,000.

If you decide to invest in a multifamily syndication, you will receive a steady, passive income. With the apartment units rented out, you’ll have a constant flow of cash coming in without the hassles of property ownership. And then, of course, you’ll generally get the most returns once the property is sold for a profit.

Historically, multifamily investing also performs better during a recession. Sure, an economic downturn hits everyone, but even during a recession there will be tenants paying rent so that you continue to get a return on your investment. 

Certain types of deals require us to have a relationship with you prior to presenting any deals with you. The best place to start is by telling us more about yourself and your investment goals. Then, as we get to know each other better and deals come up that fit your criteria, we would love to work with you.
