Too many smart investors miss out on real estate investing because they don't want to deal with the hassles of being a landlord. 

They often hesitate because:
> They don’t have the time or patience to manage properties.
> They don’t want the stress of dealing with tenants, toilets, or termites.
> They’re unsure how to find profitable, low-risk opportunities.

What if I told you there was a way to receive all the benefits of real estate, without any hassles (or stress) of being a landlord?

Most syndicators won’t touch construction

1 year of planning 
2 years of construction 
1 more year to lease up 

It's too complex.
It takes too long. 
It has too many moving parts.

This is exactly what I love about development: 
LESS competition 

Not many companies are willing to put in a huge amount of work upfront and wait years for the real upside...

This is where you find the real opportunity 💪

I had a call with a potential investor who thought preferred return = cash on cash return

I had to explain these are not the same thing...

7% preferred return DOES NOT mean you receive 7% annually.

The preferred return alludes to the precedence of limited partners receiving a specified return, BEFORE the general partners share in the profits.

A preferred return (Pref) is not a guarantee or claim that you will get X% in any given year.

How much (or how little) the project cash flows, will determine what you receive on a quarterly basis.

Pref and cash flow distributions are 2 completely different things. 

Did you know this before reading?

When I first started investing in real estate, I assumed the best opportunities had to be in the “hottest” markets.

The ones everyone talks about. 
The ones making the headlines.

Like Florida, Texas, or Arizona.

Boy, was I wrong.

After underwriting deals across multiple states and spending years investing here at home, one thing became clear:
Indiana quietly does a lot of things right.

And for passive investors, especially those who care about stability, predictability, and long-term wealth, that matters more than hype.

Let’s walk through why Indiana deserves serious consideration.

Why Indiana Is One of the Best States for Passive Real Estate Syndication Investors

Raising capital is never easy.
And it’s never something I take for granted.

Every commitment an investor makes is built on trust.

That trust is earned over time, through transparency, communication, and execution.

All investing involves risk.

But when you choose
• the right operators
• the right deals
• and the right markets

that risk is significantly reduced.

One thing I appreciate about Invest Clearly is the transparency it brings to our industry.

It’s a place where investors can read real, VERIFIED reviews from people who actually invested with a company.

I'm grateful for my investors who took the time to leave feedback and look forward to growing on this platform! Check out Invest Clearly if you haven't already.

Do you think this will be a great addition to downtown?

I almost quit
(on more than one occasion)

I was putting in a ton of work and still felt like NOTHING was working for me with real estate.

There were many years in my life where I was working full time AND going to college full time. 

My calendar was packed. My energy was drained. 

I barely had time to do anything fun, let alone slow down and enjoy life. Every week felt like survival mode.

At the same time, I was trying to build something better.

- I was looking for multifamily deals.
- Learning the process.
- Trying to understand how this business actually worked.

Every spare minute went to YouTube, podcasts, and books.

Early mornings. Late nights. Lunch breaks with headphones in. 

But I never saw any progress...

It felt like I was WASTING time.
❌ So I almost quit many times. 
❌ Almost went back to house flipping. 
❌ Almost switched to just buying businesses. 
❌ Almost switched to buying storage facilities. 

But I was wrong. 

✅ In reality, progress was happening slowly over time. 

Day by day it didn’t look like much. 
Week by week it felt invisible.
But month by month and year by year, you make progress. 

Most people quit right before their big breakthrough!

If you feel like you're stuck in a rut right now and not making any progress...this is your sign to keep going! 🚀

Returns work different in a typical development deal:

When you invest in ground-up construction, there’s no cash flow for the first year or so. 

Because the project isn’t stabilized yet.

So how do investors get paid?

Let’s break it down:

• Preferred Return:
> This is your “priority” return before the sponsor makes a dime.
> It accrues during construction.

• Return of Capital:
> Once the project sells, your principal is returned back to you.

• Profit Split:
> After your preferred return and capital is paid, the profits get split.
> Usually 70% to investors / 30% to the sponsor.

Example:
• You invest $50,000.
• No cash flow year 1.
• Small distribution year 2 as things stabilize.
• Pref is caught up at sale.
• Return of capital ($50k).
• Profits are split in year 3 at sale.

You end up receiving $85,782 when it's all said and done.

That’s a 1.72x equity multiple (you turned $50K into $85,782)

Which equals a 20% IRR over 3 years.

This is typically how most syndication returns are structured for a ground-up deal, but the numbers are just for an example.
