How to be a Loan Guarantor and Key Principal: Navigating the High-Stakes World of Financial Responsibility (Episode 23) - Ethan Gao
Description
Welcome to the 23rd ever episode of the Failing to success in multifamily show. A podcast where we appreciate, discuss, and reflect on the setbacks real estate investors have had leading up to their success.
I know I say this often, but today I have the absolute honor to have Ethan Go on as a very special guest. Ethan has owned several rental properties, made over 300 private loans secured by real estate (both single family and commercial real estate), invested in over 100 single family fix and flip projects and is a general partner on multiple commercial and multifamily projects totaling over 900 units. His primary role on deals is loan guarantor/key principal or gap funder. For example, where the sponsorship team has raised around 80% of the limited partnership equity but does not have enough time to raise the remainder - Ethan will come in and lend that remainder to the team so that the deal can get done on time!
Ethan personally and through his private equity fund, Good Bull Investments LP and Good Bull Lending, LLC has also invested in commercial properties totaling over $25 million (including hotels, self-storage, office building, medical office and retail). The guy is an absolute rockstar!
Now, I’m sure that behind all his success is sacrifice, dedication, and a whole lot of hard work so I can’t wait for you all to hear his journey, his successes, but most of all, and the reason why we’re all here today, his failures as he continues to reach his goals within multifamily!
Ethan, welcome to the show my friend!
