Syndications can be an excellent way to add passive income to your real estate portfolio. Today’s returning guest sits down with Jonathan to explain the current state of multifamily syndications.

On this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes back Drew Breneman, founder and CEO of Breneman Capital. Breneman Capital is focused on helping its investors create passive income streams through multifamily syndications.

Jonathan and Drew start by delving into the big changes for real estate investors over the past couple of years. Drew explains why many people are choosing to rent versus buy with the ever-increasing cost of housing and shares he is also a renter. You’ll hear the potential downsides of markets, Drew's criteria to decide on one, the markets still doing well in the Midwest, and how he manages their properties remotely. Jonathan and Drew explore the deals Drew never buys, which ones make the most money, and what he will look for over the next two years as the market shifts.

If syndications are on your radar, returning guest Drew Breneman outlines what you can expect in the near future.
