Exchanging into a TIC interest in a new development from two sold properties is no easy task. The timing has to align perfectly on all ends. The additional complication is having a construction lender and their requirements, along with the equity and debt legal structure for participation and allocation which is required to meet all tax and legal requirements for my exchange.

The Grocaptus team made it happen using a very organized and systematic process for the entire transaction. The support of Neal, Anna, and Peter was exceptional in all respects. Their legal team led by Dugan Kelley was superb in their preparation and review of all the required documentation for a successful closing.

The end result was our ability to participate in a financially attractive new development that is projected to exceed most 1031 offering.

As a former commercial lender and current active investor with over 30 years of experience and current investments in multifamily, hotels, retail, land, triple net, and industrial properties, I highly recommend Grocapitus as an excellent source for passive real estate investments.

Investing in syndication has been a game-changer for me. After years in the corporate world and luxury flips, I started investing in syndications two years ago. This gave me access to large-scale projects and diversification, reducing my risk. Grocapitus’ expertise, especially Neal and Anna’s track record, gave me confidence. I learned a lot from their university program. I did a 1031 exchange into the Idaho fall project, and Peter Majeski guided me through the process. The closing was seamless, and the team stays in constant contact. I highly recommend Grocapitus for anyone looking to scale their portfolio with seasoned professionals.

Neal and his team at Grocapitus have run this project very professionally and I’m extremely pleased to double my money in 4 years. Grocapitus has set the bar high for their competitors–I’ll definitely be investing with them again! 

For all those interested, I can shed some light on the subject. I invested in one of the the projects 2 years ago and expecting an exit next year. The totals shown are the average for all the projects and exists (completion and safe), so far. Neal knows his stuff and they don’t move on risky projects. I would definitely invest with them again. If considering another investment, ask about their experience and established track record.

Grocapitus is not just your average passive real estate syndication. It’s a dynamic powerhouse of real estate investments with outperforming returns. I have partnered in 6 projects with Grocapitus and have already exited on one of them (Greenfill Storage) with 2.16x equity multiple in less then three years.

Neal’s laser sharp focus on industry trends, macro and micro economic indicators combined with data centric research is at the core of such performance. Neal and Anna actively manage every project with a unique and innovative approach to enhance and extract highest value for their investors. With timely communications via monthly updates, quarterly webinar and other ad hoc  communications I am always in the know of what’s happening at the ground level on every single project.

Thank you Neal, Anna and the entire Grocapitus team.

I so appreciate your care for investors, combined with excellent intuition combined with hard ass negotiation skills Happy holidays – I hope this is one thing off your plate so you can focus on other projects and have a good holiday

I’ve invested in 6 of Neal’s projects. As I write this, we just had the first successful exit: the Windward Forest Multifamily project, where we earned >20% IRR.

Neal is extremely agile. Until COVID hit us, his projects were mostly multifamily deals (each with some value-add strategy that should increase the NOI). Since then, he realized that there may be higher risk in such deals due to tenants’ unemployment, inability to pay rent, and eviction restrictions. 

Still, I am very impressed by the multifamily projects performance: the occupancy levels have not gone down, and rent collection is very high, given the circumstances. I personally like the multifamily projects more, as they offer dividends from the rent income, and it’s easier to predict their performance. Anyways, I trust Neal’s numbers, so I have invested in his recent construction projects, too. Keep them coming, Neal!

Neal’s datacentric approach gives him a near oracle like insight into the vagaries of not just commercial real estate, but also macroeconomic trends as they impact microeconomic zones and industries. His ethics are beyond reproach and his interests are clearly aligned with his passive partners.

He is what you want in a partner, someone who is scanning the horizon for both threats and opportunities, someone who can hunt for the right prey at the right time, and you both get to dine on the feast together.

I always wanted to get involved in real estate investing, but never wanted the headaches that can be associated with being a landlord. I also knew that I lacked the knowledge needed to make informed investment decisions.

Fortunately, a friend told me about Neal, Anna and the Grocapitus team. I was impressed with the ease of onboarding, detailed due diligence of opportunities to aid decision making, and great communication via monthly project updates.

I was so impressed with their organization that in the last 2 1/2 years, I have invested in a total of seven projects. Our first project together, Greenfill Storage Depot, recently had an early exit that far exceeded our expected return! A true home run! Thank you Grocapitus!

Neal does wonders with investor money. The ROI with Neal beats all my projects with other firms. Besides this key aspect, I want to share a few other things.

I met Neal in 2017, to purchase a single family house owned by Neal. Neal was selling it to focus on his syndication journey. Unfortunately, I had to withdraw the contract. Neal graciously returned the deposit, which could have been kept by contract. At that moment, I knew Neal is a big hearted person!

Neal told me he has an offshore administration team. To me, that was a novel idea for a start-up real estate firm back then. When I started working with the team in 2018 for the Park Canyon project, I found Neal’s team to be superb. They are responsive, provide quality work, and the operational flow is seamless.

Neal not only deploys many advanced technologies, concepts, methods to identify opportunities, but also manages each project with unbeatable efficiency. He has a great team, and I have been working with the same team today as I started four years ago, so I think Neal really takes care of his people.

Bottom line – Neal is a disruption force in his field, he has everything down to a science. He fuses the best practice of both technology and business, into his workflow. And he always seeks the truth. If you are with Neal, you are on the fastest train!

Neal and his team are awesome! I’ve invested in 8 projects with him and after 3 years we’ve already sold three. He’s outperformed other syndicates that I’ve invested with for much longer. I love getting his monthly updates. It’s rare to have a syndicator update us so regularly.

Grocapitus is a breath of fresh air. They do things differently and way better than their competitors. Thank you Neal for being an amazing leader to your team! I couldn’t be happier with the results so far. Looking forward to investing more in the future.

I invested in Grocapitus’ project because I liked their data driven approach to analysis and conservative underwriting. So far results have been delightful as the project has outperformed the projections and continues to perform well even during the coronavirus crisis. I also appreciate the fact that Grocapitus is easily available and they make it a point to communicate personally to address any questions I might have.

One of our investments with Neal had an exit with better than projected returns (during uncertain times with the pandemic)!!

What impresses me about Grocapitus is their quality research on every aspect of the market, their excellent communications and updates to investors, and their ability to add value to every property they touch.

I also appreciate their personal care about their investors and that they are accessible to discuss investments and concerns in a prompt manner. I highly recommend them for real estate investment.

“Awesome presentation. Thank you so much!

I currently invest in Houston and San Antonio and the oil news we all hear about will be good for Houston. But your analyses of San Antonio blew my socks off! I know it’s a good investing opportunity due to the military, but I never thought to think through the booming manufacturing boom in Mexico and how it would affect San Antonio.

I now know where I will be spending quite a bit of my investment dollars for the next few years!

Thank you for your awesome insights Neal!”

So much to unpack here. Neal Bawa is always on the forefront of what is happening in the commercial real estate markets. He shows what data based due dilligence looks like when applied to emerging markets, brilliant.
