Summary: <p>My guest today, Adam Adams, needed some convincing to get started in real estate. But after he got his first $12,500 check, he was all in. He skipped single-family investing and went straight for multi-family, but he went about it strategically, learning from other more experienced investors. He funded his first deals with capital he raised (hello, new investor with no capital of your own) and today he’s working on a 250-unit apartment complex deal.<br> <br>Can you tell this guy is smart?<br> <br>Adam Adams also loves to share what he’s learned as a coach and as a meetup organizer and host for over a dozen different meetups in his area. And today he’s sharing some of his experiences as a multi-family investor, his thoughts on the state of the market, and his tips to leverage meetups to find and fund deals.<br> <br>First Adam explains what he’s learned about multi-family deals, including how to get started with very little real estate investing experience (it is possible). He walks through what his deals look like, what made him get into multi-family in the first place, and the cash flow structure.<br> <br>We also explore the current market. Adam shares how to really understand the state of the market and how to decrease the risk of an investment (especially a multi-family investment) in the event of a recession.<br> <br>Finally, we turn to meetups with all their possibilities.
