5 Questions investors might consider in multifamily syndication

1. WHAT IS THE INVESTMENT THESIS/BUSINESS PLAN?

When you invest in multifamily syndication, you typically do so as part of a fund. With BAM Capital, our Funds fill up quickly. When we decide to purchase a property, it’s based on our ability to add value through property improvements, management changes, facility improvements, and increased rents when they are below industry standards. We typically invest in areas we know well, usually Midwest properties.

2. WHAT IS THE EXPECTED RETURN?

Returns represent the money an investor can expect to earn in return for the initial capital they invested; ROI is calculated as a percentage of the initial investment and is often used to compare different investment opportunities.

At BAM Capital, we work diligently to provide our investors with competitive returns by utilizing our experience and expertise to pinpoint and execute well-located and well-managed multifamily properties. Our investment strategy involves identifying value-add opportunities, which allows us to enhance the physical and operational aspects of the properties we acquire, thus creating additional cash flow and equity for our investors.

We understand that our investors want to see a return on their investment as quickly as possible, so we focus on efficiently and effectively implementing our business plan. We aim to enhance the properties we acquire while upholding high standards of quality and integrity, thereby providing our investors with consistent potential for reliable cash flow and generating long-term appreciation.

At BAM Capital, the success of any investment depends on a partnership between the investor and the sponsor. See our “syndication structure” article to learn how a real estate syndication program is assembled. We are committed to being transparent with our investors and providing them with regular updates on the progress of their investments. Our team of experienced professionals endeavors to exceed our investors’ expectations by providing them with exceptional service and meticulous attention to detail.

At BAM Capital, we find value-add opportunities and efficiently fulfill our business plan to maximize our investors’ cash flow and equity. We intend to provide our investors with consistent, reliable return potential while maintaining high standards of quality and transparency.

3. IS THIS A PASSIVE OR ACTIVE INVESTMENT PLAY?

Active investments involve direct ownership of a property or properties, requiring investors to be actively involved in the day-to-day management of the asset. This type of investment is typically suited for experienced investors with the knowledge and expertise to effectively manage a real estate asset. Active investments demand a significant time commitment and can be more challenging to manage than passive investments. However, they can also offer the potential for higher returns.

On the other hand, passive investments are less hands-on and require less involvement from investors. In this type of investment, investors provide capital to a sponsor or syndicator who acquires and manages a real estate asset. Passive investors strive to receive regular cash flow distributions and share in the profits generated by the investment.

This type of investment is typically suited for investors who prefer a more hands-off approach to real estate investing.

At BAM Capital, we offer passive real estate investment opportunities through our multifamily syndication programs. We acquire and manage high-quality multifamily properties and provide our investors with regular cash flow distributions and the potential for long-term appreciation. Our team of experienced professionals handles all aspects of the asset management process, including acquisitions, renovations, leasing, and property management. This allows our investors to enjoy the benefits of real estate ownership without the day-to-day responsibilities of managing the asset.

4. WHAT ARE THE TAX BENEFITS?

Please note that this is not tax advice. As a real estate investment company, BAM Capital understands the tax benefits of owning investment properties. One primary benefit is the ability to depreciate the property over time, which reduces taxable income and generates significant tax savings. 

Additionally, expenses such as repairs, maintenance, and management fees can be deducted from taxable income, further reducing the property owner’s tax liability. 

Furthermore, if an investor holds the property for more than a year, they can take advantage of favorable long-term capital gains tax rates when they sell the property. At BAM Capital, we understand the importance of maximizing tax benefits for our investors. While tax laws and individual situations vary, we work closely with our accounting team to ensure that our investments are structured with the goal of maximizing tax savings and benefiting our investors.

CONNECT WITH AN INSTITUTIONAL REAL ESTATE OWNER/OPERATOR

Like other real estate investments, multifamily syndication remains subject to illiquidity due to the long-term nature of these deals, which typically last for years. Accredited investors are somewhat more comfortable with not having access to their funds because of their high net worth and income.

Still, working with a syndicator you trust is important because, as this is a passive investment, they will make all the decisions regarding the investment property.

BAM Capital partners with accredited investors who want to enjoy passive income and all the other benefits of multifamily private placement. As the private equity arm of The BAM Companies, BAM Capital’s investment strategy aims to create forced appreciation while mitigating investor risk. To date, the brand has successfully managed over $1.7 billion in assets across ~9,000 apartment units.
