Show Notes
Have you ever wondered why ultra wealthy families invest in private real estate? Why wouldn’t you just buy your own rental property or invest in a public REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust)? How do you even find a quality partner to invest with? What types of real estate investments are out there? As a professional athlete, when would this type of investment make sense for you?
In this episode, we talk with experts from two different private real estate firms to get an insider’s guide on what to look for in a deal, how to evaluate it, and how to choose a partner to invest with. And they both happen to be former professional athletes as well. Dan Kennedy is a Partner at Driven Capital Partners and a retired MLS player, and Peter Tomasulo works for Lyon Living and is a retired PGA Tour player. I learned a lot in this interview and hope you do, too.
