What do a broken leg, a fourplex, and a podcast binge have in common? For Dallon Schultz, they were the catalysts that launched him from the high-stress world of emergency nursing into the multifamily investment scene. In this episode, Jake and Gino sit down with Dallon, co-founder of Capitalist Pro, to unpack how he transitioned from patient care to capital raising — now supporting deals totaling over $150 million.

Dallon shares how a false sense of job security inspired his entrepreneurial pivot, the realities of raising capital without a track record, and how his tech-forward CRM system helps syndicators stay top-of-mind with investors. He also dives into syndication red flags, vetting GPs, avoiding capital call disasters, and building long-term relationships through automation without sacrificing trust.

Whether you're an operator, aspiring investor, or raising your first dollar, this episode offers tactical gold on playing to your strengths, automating investor communications, and building real estate wealth through authentic connections.
