I started researching and I came up with Multifamily Investment. I started following the gurus of the multifamily space, started listening to podcasts (this is the time I met Brian Brisco), I have listened no less than 30 episodes of Brian Briscoe's podcast while I was working in a hotel, I learned how to underwrite a deal (I studied Business Administration) and when I got to Orlando I started to take action, to go network, attend to local REA and I finally met a man who owns a property management company, I told him that I know how to underwrite deals, he's been an LP in a few deals and he wants to be a GP with me on his team, now I work for him in his PMC and we are looking to find deals to invest in."Learn more about him at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/miguel-diaz-a734bb23b/

When you're a new real estate syndicator with a smaller network, you can keep track of investors with a spreadsheet and work through the process of raising money manually. But as you grow your investor database, it becomes more and more tedious to do things this way. The good news is, you can leverage investor management software to automate the process of drafting legal documents and wiring money, saving yourself and your investors a lot of time and trouble. So, how do you choose an investor portal that's the right fit for you and your syndication business? Perry Zheng is Founder and CEO of https://themichaelblank.com/cashflow/ (Cash Flow Portal), a real estate syndication platform that helps syndicators streamline the process of raising equity, automate operations and attract more investors. Perry began his career as a software engineer, taking on roles at Twitter, Amazon and Lyft. He has also acted as lead sponsor on three apartment syndications, raising $20M to build a portfolio of 850 units. On this episode of Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing, Perry joins Garrett and me to explain how his frustrations with the process of raising capital inspired the creation of Cash Flow Portal. Perry discusses how GPs and LPs alike benefit from using an investor management platform and describes what differentiates Cash Flow Portal from other syndication software on the market. Listen in for Perry's insight on vetting investor management software and find out if Cash Flow Portal is the right long-term partner for you!

When asked what was the best restaurant he'd been to, he promptly noted that Le Bernardin in New York City was top notch.Once he had a few single family dwellings in his portfolio, he decided to syndicate a deal for a multi family complex. In doing this, he quickly realized how complicated the process was to get this done. He decided to apply his tech knowledge and create something to solve his problem.This is the creation story of Cash Flow Portal.SponsorsImmediateOrbitPostmarkStytchVerb DataWebapp.ioLinksWebsite: https://www.cashflowportal.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/perryzheng/Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Stay tuned to the end of the interview where I'll give you some actionable insights that I learned from my guest. These insights are also in the show notes. As always, thanks for listening. Now on to my guest for today, Perry Zheng, founder and CEO of Cash Flow Portal. Perry started working as a software engineer in 2010, working for fast-growing companies like Twitter and Lyft. Five years into his career, having reached the position of engineering manager, he started investing in real estate. First he bought a house and lived in it, renting out the other bedrooms. He repeated this a few times and gradually accumulated more properties. Ultimately he decided to take a bigger step of investing in a multi-unit property, which required bringing on other investors. He found, however, the process of basic tasks like obtaining signatures and transferring money was inefficient. This led him to hire a team to develop a software program that people like himself could use, ending up with Cash Flow Portal.  Perry didn't dive head-first into being an entrepreneur. As a manager at Lyft, he could afford to invest in the company and pay employees while continuing to work. He bootstrapped the company for the first year and a half until he saw that he had a viable product. Once he started to work on attracting investors in order to grow his company, he decided it was time to become a full-time entrepreneur, and he now has a clear vision of where he and his company are headed. Now let's get better together. Actionable Insights  Perry had funds to finance his startup, but he waited until he saw it could be a viable business to quit his job. This might not be an option available to everyone, but he found this strategy enabled him to start the company without the immediate pressure of having to find and satisfy investors.  Perry notes that by working at both a job and his company, he sacrificed emotional stability for financial stability. What kept him going was passion to the point of obsession for making his idea a reality. In order to achieve your goal, you will need to become someone different than what you are. This doesn't mean necessarily sacrificing your values, but it does mean recognizing that you may have to learn and acquire new skills to be successful. In short, move out of your comfort zone; if you fail, take the lessons you learned and move on.  Links to Explore Further CashFlowPortal.com Perry Zheng on LinkedIn CashFlowPortal on Facebook Keep In Touch Book or Blog or Twitter or LinkedIn or JSYPR Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, Perry shares his insights on career growth, starting out in the real estate industry, and what it's like to work towards success as an immigrant in the US.

KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Work smarter, not harder. 2. You shouldn't be looking too far into the future; don't underestimate what you can do in the long term. 3. Enjoy the journey; focus on what you can control. 4. Networking is an important tool for education and building experience aside from making connections.
