Dissecting Investing in Real Estate Syndications with Dr. Tarang Patel, Ep #5

Physician Cents

What is a real estate syndication?

A syndication is a way for multiple parties to pool their funds to purchase an asset. It’s a way to legally aggregate a variety of sources of capital. There’s been a significant rise in real estate syndications in the last few years.

Investing in real estate has become popular—and for good reason. Real estate is full of great opportunities that can be rewarding. There’s money to be made, tax benefit possibilities, and it’s a type of investment that behaves differently. If you’ve got a plan in place for retirement, real estate seems like the logical next step. But is investing in a real estate syndication a good choice?

Dr. Tarang Patel joins us in this episode of Physician Cents to cover real estate syndications, why they’ve become so popular among physicians, and how you can protect yourself and make good investment decisions.
