Holly's Experience as a Limited Partner
Most of Holly’s assets are in multifamily syndications. According to her, the advantage of being a Limited Partner is that there is zero operational liability, getting passive income without drawing down on the principal. With that being said, Holly further stated that there is nothing that’s guaranteed in this world and there is nothing safe, but most of her assets are with multifamily syndications, and so far, it has been a great experience as she can now live off of her investments.
Holly's Tips for Aspiring Limited Partners
Below are Holly’s Tips for aspiring Limited Partners:
- Be clear on your investment goals, especially on desired hold time. Investing for appreciation is different from investing for the purpose of cash flow.
- For Holly, capital preservation comes first, the cash flow is second, and forced appreciation is the last priority. Make sure you know what your priorities are.
- Helping to drive improvements in the neighborhoods and communities where your tenants live will ultimately create more room for value-add.People say that investing is passive but you have to put in the time somewhere. You have to do your diligence to invest passively.
The Horrible Truth of the Investment Industry
The investment industry is not stacked in your favor as Holly has personally experienced. Financial advisors are only there to make recommendations based on the person’s age and not taking into account their risk profiles which caused the value of her daughter’s plan to decrease by 20%. Additionally, advisors are still getting paid even if their client is losing money. According to Holly, most aren’t paying attention and it's essentially a racket.
Tapping into the Knowledge of Hidden Investing
The Uber wealthy people leverage their money in real estate through multifamily syndications, oil and gas which normal people like us do not know. These are knowledge that are hiding in plain sight. That is why knowledge is power and modeling how the rich invest their money pays the best interest for common people like us. The system is set up for us to die broke but it is really up to us to take charge of our financial destiny.
