Dylan Marma and Mr. Chopra crossed passed a little over two years ago. Dylan born and raised in upstate New York has jumped into the real estate world and not looked back. When Vinney and Dylan met, Dylan had already caught the real estate bug and also new learning from someone like Vinney that has worn every hat in the multifamily syndication business was going to be key to his success, and it was. A great success story to learn from, a story about hard work and massive action brings massive reward$. Dylan started learning the apartment syndication business and all the ins and outs; then, in a little over two years, Dylan Marma was able to build a portfolio of 50+M and over 700 units. That's what having the right mentors, and massive action accomplishes. Dylan has taken huge risks, and they have paid off tenfold. He tells his story and the why behind his decision to get into the apartment syndication side of the real estate business. Once, Dylan figured out what he wanted; he then found the right person to educate him on the process. Dylan tells his story on how when he moved to Atlanta, he made a smart decision that while his company was new and he had no connections, no brokers and no one in the multifamily business to start marketing. So, he started his own Meetup group and started heavily marketing himself on social media even before he moved there. Before he got busy, he took advantage of that time to build relationships and his tribe, which paid off in the next few years. This podcast is not only about success between a student and a mentor but relative and real information anyone in the multifamily syndication world would want to listen too.
