Episode 17: I Raised 19 Million… And Then I Gave It Back

Would you EVER give back $19 million that you’d raised? Take that in for a minute — you just raised $19 MILLION for a commercial real estate investment and, instead of charging forward you called the investors and gave the money right back. Crazy, right? Don’t scream YES so fast because, in this episode of the Commercial Investor Podcast, Sal and AJ walk listeners through their story... what they planned to do, how they raised the funds and why, at the end of the day, they gave it all back to investors. It’s a crazy story, but it’s not a crazy outcome — in fact, it’s what good hedge fund managers and investors should be doing. This podcast is a must-listen no matter where you are in your real estate investing career. You’re dealing with other people’s money and other people’s financial future.
