In today's episode of the Real Estate Syndication Show, we had the pleasure of welcoming back Lance Pederson, co-founder at Passive Advantage and creator of the Empire Builder Formula. Lance brings a wealth of experience in advising both General Partners (GPs) and Limited Partners (LPs) in the real estate syndication space.Our conversation with Lance was incredibly insightful as we delved into the common frictions that arise between GPs and LPs and how to mitigate them. Lance shared valuable suggestions that can help both GPs and LPs have a smoother and more transparent partnership.Key Takeaways:Transparency and Access to Information: Lance emphasized the importance of GPs being transparent with LPs by sharing detailed financial models and documentation. He suggested using secure data rooms like Google Drive, Dropbox, or DocSend to provide LPs with access to sensitive information under a non-disclosure agreement (NDA).Background Checks and Principal Questionnaires: He recommended that GPs run annual background checks on themselves and upload the results to the data room, along with a principal questionnaire, to build trust with LPs.Realistic Underwriting: Lance discussed the pressure GPs face to inflate their underwriting to show higher potential returns. He advised GPs to be conservative and honest in their projections and to educate LPs on the reality of investment returns in the current economic climate.Personal Habits for Success: Lance attributes his success to his habit of going to bed early and waking up early, which allows him to have a productive start to his day.Spiritual Discipleship: Lastly, Lance spoke about the importance of discipleship and mentoring in one's spiritual journey, highlighting the need to actively help others grow in their faith.We're also excited to announce that Lance will be contributing to the podcast by hosting someAfter interviewing thousands of entrepreneurs, one truth is clear: business success means little if it costs your marriage, family, or faith.I'm now hosting the Courageous Men podcast for men who want to lead well at home and at work. I'm looking for five men to walk closely with who want to lead well at home and work.  Email me at whitney@whitneysewell.com and tell me why you should be one of the five. whitneysewell.com  VISIT OUR WEBSITEhttps://lifebridgecapital.com/Here are ways you can work with us here at Life Bridge Capital:⚡️START INVESTING TODAY: If you think that real estate syndication may be right for you, contact us today to learn more about our current investment opportunities: https://lifebridgecapital.com/investwithlbc⚡️Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealEstateSyndicationShow📝 JOIN THE DISCUSSIONhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/realestatesyndication➡️ FOLLOW UShttps://twitter.com/whitney_sewell https://www.instagram.com/whitneysewell/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/whitney-sewell/ ⭐ Be Our Guest!We are continuously working hard to help our listeners with their journey to real estate syndication.
