How Our Investors Build Wealth
Not everyone has the time, connections, and applied expertise to actively manage a large real estate portfolio and cater to all its growing needs.
However, you can still get exposure to cash-flowing passive real estate investing without having to be the landlord in an active role. Real estate syndications are a great option for passive investors that want to put their money in deals with experienced operators and managers who have experience in executing on these types of projects. Real estate syndications are an easy way for you to invest as a limited partner (LP), alongside other accredited investors or institutions like private equity firms. You’ll be able to participate in these exclusive multifamily investment opportunities while only committing a fraction of the total capital that is required for a deal.

Cash flow
Each month, rent is collected from tenants minus the operating expenses incurred, which gives us the Net Operating Income (NOI). The only expenses not included in the NOI is the cost to service the debt. When you subtract this number from the NOI, you get the total cash flow available for distribution, which we both share in. -
Forced Appreciation & Market Appreciation
The value of multifamily properties are based on the Net Operating Income (NOI), not nearby property comparables. When you increase the NOI, you increase the value of the property. We achieve this by “Forced Appreciation”, buying properties where we can add value, bring the current rents up to market rents, adding other income drivers, leaning out the operating expenses and much more. Market appreciation is achieved through buying in the right cycle of the market, and the value of the building increases based off of the market and economic drivers. Both forms of appreciation increase the building’s value and build more equity, which we would both share in. -
Amortization
The principal pay down of debt on the property from the NOI increases the equity to multi family private equity investors. We then share in the equity on the refinance of the property and when we sell it. The potential exit strategies will have been highlighted before we even purchase the deal. -
Depreciation
Having actual ownership in the LLC of the property we purchase allows for you, the investor to partake in all the tax benefits of owning commercial real estate. Some of those advantages include the ability to utilize “paper losses” through depreciation, and cost segregation, as well as tax-free cash out refinances.

Common Questions

A real estate syndication is an efficient way for investors to pool their money together to purchase larger real estate assets that they typically couldn’t manage or afford to purchase as an individual investor. Generally, by leveraging and raising additional funds from outside investors to purchase it, we force appreciation and then actively manage the asset.
Typically 25%-30% of the funds are pooled together from the syndicator and the passive investors, and the other 70%-75% of the funds come from the lender/bank.
There are many parties involved in a syndication, including, but not limited to, CPAs, lenders, real estate brokers, attorneys, property managers, passive investors (you) and the syndicator who puts the whole deal together and manages the asset (Willowdale Equity).
We are a multifamily real estate syndicator. We find and vet cash-flowing multifamily real estate properties, raise additional funds from outside investors to purchase it, then force appreciation and actively manage the asset.
This varies based on the deal, but whenever there is an update, we will effectively communicate through email or phone. Additionally, we are available for communication Monday through Saturday!
An accredited investor is an individual who meets the guidelines and requirements of income and net worth based on securities and exchange commissions (SEC) regulations. This is so that the SEC can ensure proper protection for all investors.
To be an accredited investor, you must satisfy at least one of the following:
1. Have an annual income of $200,000, or $300,000 for joint income, for each of the last two years, with expectations of earning the same or higher income this year.
2. Have a net worth exceeding $1 million, not counting your primary home.
The only real estate assets we purchase are multifamily. We generally pursue value-add B & C class properties. The investment contributions you make go toward one deal, not a fund of multiple deals.
No. Depending on the deal, it can be short- or long-term. The first liquidity event may occur on the refinance of the property. This event may take place as early as year three.
