1
00:00:01,050 --> 00:00:02,850
Tilden Moschetti: So you're
putting together a real estate

2
00:00:02,850 --> 00:00:07,290
syndication but you want to know
who needs to be on your team. A

3
00:00:07,290 --> 00:00:10,740
lot of times people will call me
first, they'll say till then

4
00:00:10,740 --> 00:00:13,470
you're a syndication attorney
who needs to be on my team.

5
00:00:13,710 --> 00:00:16,770
Well, in today's video, we're
gonna go through the five main

6
00:00:16,770 --> 00:00:20,670
players and a couple other ideas
on who needs to be in your

7
00:00:20,670 --> 00:00:25,410
Rolodex as key players so that
you when you're putting together

8
00:00:25,410 --> 00:00:28,230
that's indication, you know who
is on your team.

9
00:00:40,770 --> 00:00:44,866
My name is Tilden Moschetti. I
am a syndication attorney with

10
00:00:44,934 --> 00:00:49,031
the Moschetti syndication Law
Group. We specialize in putting

11
00:00:49,098 --> 00:00:53,195
together Regulation D 506b and
506c offerings for real estate

12
00:00:53,262 --> 00:00:57,023
syndicators, real estate
developers, businesses, anybody

13
00:00:57,090 --> 00:01:01,187
who's looking to raise outside
capital for the acquisition of

14
00:01:01,254 --> 00:01:04,948
assets, and those outside
investors get compensated. So

15
00:01:05,015 --> 00:01:09,247
let's talk about some of the key
players who need to be part of

16
00:01:09,314 --> 00:01:13,411
your team. First off is the real
estate syndication attorney,

17
00:01:13,478 --> 00:01:17,776
such as myself, I specialize in
this field, I've done many deals

18
00:01:17,843 --> 00:01:22,075
for myself, as well as acted as
an attorney on hundreds of real

19
00:01:22,142 --> 00:01:26,507
estate syndication offerings put
together by my clients, but I do

20
00:01:26,574 --> 00:01:30,604
my own deal. So I boots on the
ground experience. And I have

21
00:01:30,671 --> 00:01:34,701
know firsthand the situation
that you're going through. So a

22
00:01:34,768 --> 00:01:39,134
lot of times people will come to
me first, because I already have

23
00:01:39,201 --> 00:01:43,164
been there and bend down the
path that they're that they're

24
00:01:43,231 --> 00:01:47,395
looking for. And they know, I
probably know people, that would

25
00:01:47,462 --> 00:01:51,425
be good additional team members.
So real estate syndication

26
00:01:51,492 --> 00:01:55,790
attorney, my job is to make sure
that you are compliant with the

27
00:01:55,857 --> 00:01:59,887
rules of the SEC in the States
and that you're complying and

28
00:01:59,954 --> 00:02:04,118
doing all the things that are
necessary when you're offering a

29
00:02:04,186 --> 00:02:08,283
security because that's what
you're doing in a syndication is

30
00:02:08,350 --> 00:02:12,111
you're selling a security, it's
a free pass to sell that

31
00:02:12,178 --> 00:02:16,544
security, but you need to follow
the rules, you know, just like a

32
00:02:16,611 --> 00:02:20,573
stockbroker, you know, they're
selling securities, and they

33
00:02:20,641 --> 00:02:24,670
probably have an MBA. In this
case, you're getting to do all

34
00:02:24,737 --> 00:02:29,103
that work. And you're getting to
make money as somebody selling a

35
00:02:29,170 --> 00:02:33,334
security your own. But you need
to comply with those rules. So

36
00:02:33,401 --> 00:02:37,028
our job as a syndication
attorney is to make sure that

37
00:02:37,095 --> 00:02:40,991
you're compliant. Our job is
also to make sure that you go

38
00:02:41,058 --> 00:02:44,953
down a road and that you're
ultimately successful, because

39
00:02:45,021 --> 00:02:48,916
then you can keep doing more and
more syndications, right.

40
00:02:48,983 --> 00:02:52,811
Another major key player, the
probably number one on your

41
00:02:52,879 --> 00:02:57,110
list, or number two on your list
is a real estate agent or real

42
00:02:57,177 --> 00:03:01,408
estate broker, you need a way to
be able to find properties and

43
00:03:01,475 --> 00:03:05,505
and be able to source those.
Some people have those in house

44
00:03:05,572 --> 00:03:09,804
and that's or they come to the
doing real estate syndication as

45
00:03:09,871 --> 00:03:13,632
a broker agent themselves. But
if they're not, it's very

46
00:03:13,699 --> 00:03:17,796
helpful to have at least one and
probably a multitude of real

47
00:03:17,863 --> 00:03:22,229
estate agents or brokers to help
them find the right property and

48
00:03:22,296 --> 00:03:26,124
to set up that deal for the
acquisition of the asset that

49
00:03:26,191 --> 00:03:29,415
will be part of their
syndication to begin with.

50
00:03:29,482 --> 00:03:33,512
Another key person is, is an
accountant. Now, the accountant

51
00:03:33,579 --> 00:03:37,676
certainly is going to be doing
the taxes and making sure that

52
00:03:37,743 --> 00:03:40,900
the K ones get filed most
syndications that our

53
00:03:40,967 --> 00:03:45,333
partnership returns, which means
that we issue K ones every year.

54
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,631
And that account is critical to
make sure that all the benefits

55
00:03:49,698 --> 00:03:53,728
of owning real estate such as
depreciation, are passed on in

56
00:03:53,795 --> 00:03:57,825
the appropriate way to your
investors, as well as giving tax

57
00:03:57,892 --> 00:04:02,056
returns which need to get filed
every time. And you along with

58
00:04:02,123 --> 00:04:06,153
that accountant, you will also
want a bookkeeper. And so you

59
00:04:06,220 --> 00:04:10,586
want to be able to keep track of
all those expenses and make sure

60
00:04:10,653 --> 00:04:14,414
that they're being attributed
properly to the investment

61
00:04:14,481 --> 00:04:18,444
vehicle itself. We want to make
sure that distributions are

62
00:04:18,511 --> 00:04:22,272
happening in an appropriate way
and make sure that those

63
00:04:22,339 --> 00:04:26,503
distributions are happening and
a bookkeeper can help you with

64
00:04:26,571 --> 00:04:30,466
that. Lastly, you may choose to
have a property manager, a

65
00:04:30,533 --> 00:04:34,630
property manager is the one on
site or near the site that can

66
00:04:34,697 --> 00:04:38,526
be the boots on the ground and
make sure that tenants are

67
00:04:38,593 --> 00:04:42,757
paying their rent to make sure
that improvements are happening

68
00:04:42,824 --> 00:04:46,921
to make sure that expenses are
getting paid. All those things

69
00:04:46,988 --> 00:04:51,085
that a property manager does.
Having a great property manager

70
00:04:51,152 --> 00:04:55,383
is a lifesaver for a syndicator
I've never had a syndication go

71
00:04:55,451 --> 00:04:59,346
south where I haven't had a I
should put that differently.

72
00:04:59,413 --> 00:05:03,644
I've never had a syndication go
south. And that is because I've

73
00:05:03,712 --> 00:05:07,540
always had the very best
property manager I could find to

74
00:05:07,607 --> 00:05:11,435
make sure that the property was
being managed in the best

75
00:05:11,503 --> 00:05:15,264
possible way in the most
efficient way possible. Key key

76
00:05:15,331 --> 00:05:19,226
key to have a great property
manager. Other people you may

77
00:05:19,293 --> 00:05:23,592
want to consider as part of your
team is maybe especially if you

78
00:05:23,659 --> 00:05:27,420
have a more complex structure,
you might want a business

79
00:05:27,487 --> 00:05:31,316
attorney to make sure that all
those deals that all those

80
00:05:31,383 --> 00:05:35,144
arrangements that are being
made, maybe with vendors, or

81
00:05:35,211 --> 00:05:39,039
maybe it's contracts that are
being made with developers,

82
00:05:39,106 --> 00:05:43,002
things like that are being done
in a way that is legal and

83
00:05:43,069 --> 00:05:47,233
compliant. And under your local
state specific rules. You also

84
00:05:47,300 --> 00:05:51,666
may want to hire a tax attorney,
certainly if there's going to be

85
00:05:51,733 --> 00:05:55,897
some sort of 1031 exchanges as
part of this or if you're going

86
00:05:55,964 --> 00:05:59,591
to be doing anything different
than just straight line

87
00:05:59,658 --> 00:06:03,352
accounting. A tax attorney can
be very helpful as well,

88
00:06:03,419 --> 00:06:07,785
especially or if you're doing an
opportunity zone fund. They will

89
00:06:07,852 --> 00:06:11,613
be the one who can help
structure that opportunity zone.

90
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,374
And then the raising of the
capital gets done through a

91
00:06:15,441 --> 00:06:19,001
securities attorney such as
myself. My name is Tilden

92
00:06:19,068 --> 00:06:22,964
Moschetti. I'm a real estate
syndication attorney with the

93
00:06:23,031 --> 00:06:27,195
Moschetti syndication Law Group.
We specialize in Regulation D

94
00:06:27,262 --> 00:06:30,956

95
00:06:31,023 --> 00:06:34,449
developers but also for
businesses or anybody who's

96
00:06:34,516 --> 00:06:37,740
looking to raise outside capital
from investors.
