In this episode, host Dr. Brad welcomes Daniel Brereton, to demystify crowdfunded real estate investing. Brereton shares how platforms like Equity Multiple pool investor funds to participate in large-scale real estate projects, a shift enabled by the Jobs Act under the Obama administration. He discusses the role of middlemen in curating deals, key investment metrics like IRR and equity multiple, and strategies for mitigating risk. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking to diversify their portfolio with informed, accessible real estate investments.

Three Actionable Takeaways:

1. Understand Key Metrics – Learn terms like IRR (Internal Rate of Return), equity multiple, and cash-on-cash return to evaluate real estate investment opportunities effectively.
2. Vet Platforms with Transparency – Choose platforms that provide full deal track records and align sponsor incentives, ensuring trust and reducing risk.
3. Research Market Data – Use public sources like Google Maps, Zillow, and Yelp, or leverage platform-provided institutional data, to assess property viability and local conditions.
