JF 3945: Fund of Funds, First Big Deal, and Scaling Fast with Chris and Richard
Manage episode 490308864 series 109682
On this episode of Unlimited Capital, Chris Lopez and Richard McGirr break down why they chose the fund-to-funds model for their first major capital raise—and why it's a powerful starting point for aspiring syndicators. They share how they scaled quickly without years of operational experience by leveraging experienced operators, reducing risk, and maintaining compliance through a special purpose vehicle (SPV) structure. They also discuss their first deal: a 34-unit value-add multifamily property in Denver, how they structured compensation fairly, and the importance of property walks in converting investors. The episode closes with actionable tips for aspiring capital raisers and operators alike.
