Investing Through Real Estate Syndication

Access real estate projects beyond your reach

Real estate has long been one of the most powerful ways to build wealth. But traditional real estate investing requires large upfront capital, specialized knowledge, industry connections, time to manage your portfolio, and strong credit.

Real estate syndication removes these obstacles. With syndication, your funds are pooled with capital from other investors, giving you the benefits of real estate ownership with lower minimums, no prior experience required, and a fully passive investing experience.

Syndication also gives you access to real estate projects that would traditionally have been available only to the wealthiest and most experienced investors.

At Gatsby Investment, we use the syndication model to bring individual investors professionally managed real estate projects with strong return potential. You can leverage the knowledge, skills, and resources of our real estate experts while we do the work for you.

Why Investors Choose Gatsby

Gatsby makes Los Angeles real estate development accessible to everyday investors. We specialize in building modern multifamily homes from the ground up, turning the city's severe housing shortage into a powerful investment opportunity.

Through our Build-to-Rent strategy, investors benefit from value created during construction, passive rental income once the property is stabilized, and a strategic exit when the fully leased asset is sold.

With deal by deal flexibility, full transparency, and a 100% profitable track record on completed projects, Gatsby offers a more efficient and profitable way to invest in Los Angeles real estate.

Gatsby’s Investment Strategies

Gatsby offers two development focused investment strategies designed to maximize returns through value creation, shorter timelines, and diversified investment opportunities. By offering multiple investment models, Gatsby is able to adapt to changing market conditions and focus on the strategy that delivers the strongest risk adjusted returns in each market cycle.

1. Growth Investments

Short to medium term development projects built to maximize appreciation through new construction or renovation

Growth Investments are designed to elevate property value quickly. By building new multifamily assets or transforming existing ones, these projects aim to generate substantial appreciation within defined timelines. Once construction is complete and the property is sold, profits are distributed to investors.

Build to Sell Projects Include:

  • New Development
    Ground up multifamily construction sold upon completion.
    • Timeline: 18 to 24 months
    • Returns: Profit distributed at sale
  • Value Add TIC
    Renovation and Tenancy in Common (TIC) conversion with a targeted resale.
    • Timeline: 18 to 24 months
    • Returns: Profit distributed at sale

Ideal for investors seeking:
Maximized appreciation in shorter timelines, faster capital recycling, and clear project lifecycles with defined exits. No tax benefits are included since the asset is not held as a rental.

2. Growth + Income Investments

Development projects designed to build equity through construction, generate rental income, and offer tax advantages

Growth + Income Investments combine the upside of development with consistent rental income. After construction or renovation, properties are held as rentals, producing recurring cash flow. Because the assets remain in service for more than 12 months, investors may benefit from depreciation deductions and long-term capital gains treatment at sale.

Build to Rent Projects Include:

  • Build to Rent
    New development designed for value creation and rental income before sale.
    • Timeline: 2.5 to 3 years
    • Returns: Quarterly rental income plus profit at sale
  • Value Add TIC
    Renovate, lease up, hold, and sell.
    • Timeline: 3 to 5 years
    • Returns: arterly rental income plus profit at sale

Ideal for investors seeking:
Recurring passive income, long term wealth creation, and exposure to both income and appreciation potential. Strong tax benefits.

How Gatsby Delivers Exceptional Results

Gatsby Investment is different from other syndication platforms. Instead of outsourcing key parts of a project to external sponsors, we serve as the sponsor, syndicator, developer, property management, and brokerage, all in house. This fully integrated structure gives us complete control over each project.

By specializing exclusively in the Los Angeles market and focusing on one primary build type, our team has deep local knowledge and proven expertise. This specialization gives us greater control over costs, timelines, and design standards, which helps maximize margins while reducing risk.

Our proprietary platform was built to streamline and modernize the real estate investment experience. It provides transparency, efficient project management tools, and an interactive investor dashboard that allows investors to follow progress at every stage.

10 Key Reasons to Invest with Gatsby Investment

Annualized returns ranging from 10-25%. This is largely because of Gatsby’s proprietary software, automation, and proven business model we have developed over the years. Our projects are completed quickly and affordably. This efficiency leads to higher-than-normal returns.

Our projects are offered on a deal-by-deal basis, putting you in complete control of which properties you invest in. Before you invest, you’ll have access to the property details (including the address), financial breakdown, and a full description of what we are doing to maximize the value of the property.

Choose from real estate investments ranging from 6 months to 5+ years. We even offer the option to continue your renovation or development investment into a long-term rental investment once the property is stabilized. This flexibility allows you to tailor a real estate portfolio that meets your personal goals.

Own a piece of L.A. real estate for as little as $10,000. Because of the systems Gatsby has in place, we can pool money from multiple investors to offer comparatively low minimum investments.

Our industry connections allow us to locate deals with the greatest potential. Some of our acquisitions come from auction, some from broker relationships, and some are even off-market. Many of our projects would traditionally only be available to elite real estate investors using their connections to find deals that would have been inaccessible to the average investor. But with our innovative systems, Gatsby has made these deals available to the public.

Our team has successfully completed hundreds of real estate deals. By leveraging our experience, you automatically avoid the pitfalls of most real estate investors. From brokers to contractors and analysts to architects, our professionals are the best in the industry. You get to benefit from the experience, knowledge, and skill of some of the most accomplished experts in the LA market.

Gatsby Investment is registered with the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) and files reports regularly.

Gatsby offers complete transparency into our full track record. We allow all investors to view the financial details for every completed property.

You can invest quickly and securely from your computer or smartphone from anywhere.

At Gatsby Investment, we are proud of our track record! Since the start of the company in 2016, we have never lost money on a property.

Why Add Real Estate to Your Portfolio?

Real estate is one of the few asset classes that combines cash flow, appreciation, tax advantages, and protection against inflation. Because it is backed by a physical asset, it experiences far less volatility than the stock market and has historically delivered reliable, above-average returns. Adding real estate to a traditional portfolio can improve long-term performance while reducing overall risk.
