This week on The Multifamily Wealth Podcast I’m chatting with Shawn Winslow of Greenbriar Capital Group- this episode is a unique one due to Shawn being based in New Hampshire (my home state). During our conversation we discussed what Shawn learned in his first syndication deal, how to go out of state and develop relationships with brokers, and how he leverages his previous career to get a jumpstart in the real estate business
In this episode, Shawn breaks down his playbook on exactly how to reach out to brokers, what to say, how to stand out, and how to build relationships with them. If you are trying to be a better buyer and client for brokers, meet more brokers, or establish better relationships with brokers, this will be a great episode for you! Shawn also does a deep dive into what he learned during his first syndication, both on the capital raising side and on the operations side. Shawn shares how he was able to leverage his career in finance to get into real estate and raise money. Just an all around great episode for those looking to find brokers to work with, and develop the relationships that will bring you more deals!
