Hello everyone I know I've said this before, but my name is Oren Reece, I'm a novice real estate investor who has connection to agents and investors throughout the Tennessee mostly, but Kentucky, Alabama and Georgia markets. would love to connect and network with likeminded individuals so please feel free to reach out to me. Recently I was asked to be on the panel of my local REIA here in Nashville TN which was an honor. I was able to connect and share what I've learned over the years and what's working for me in my current business.

A lot of people think the goal is to “come up with more money.” It’s not. The goal is to structure smarter deals. Because here’s what happens all the time: A seller says: “I want 25–30% down.” And immediately the buyer thinks: “Welp… guess I can’t do this deal.” But experienced investors don’t stop there. They start asking: 🧠 Why does the seller want that much down? 🧠 What problem are they trying to solve? 🧠 Is there another way to create security without dumping all your cash into the deal? Because tying up huge amounts of capital in one property is how investors stay stuck. A deal with a massive down payment requirement shrinks your buyer pool fast. Even great operators start backing away because the structure kills the opportunity. This is why deal structure matters more than hype. Sometimes the answer is: ✔ Smaller down payment + stronger terms ✔ Deferred payments ✔ Interest-only periods ✔ Seller carry in second position ✔ Higher purchase price in exchange for flexibility There are so many ways to make a deal work when you stop negotiating from fear and start negotiating from understanding. Want The Down Payment Playbook? Comment PAYMENT and I will send it to your DMs. Most sellers are not married to the down payment number. They’re married to what they think that number solves. Treat down payments as an opportunity, not an obstacle. That's the shift.

Before you roll into the weekend, take a second and look back at this week… What did you learn? What conversation did you finally have? What fear did you push through? What goal did you move closer to? Seriously — celebrate that. Because progress in this business doesn’t only look like closing a deal. Sometimes progress looks like: ✅ Making your first broker call ✅ Understanding underwriting for the first time ✅ Showing up to a live workshop ✅ Asking questions instead of sitting quietly ✅ Starting to believe this is actually possible for you That stuff matters. A lot of people spend years saying the following: “One day I’ll start.” “One day I’ll learn.” “One day I’ll take action.” But YOU showed up this week. You invested in YOU. So let’s celebrate the wins—big or small. 🎉 👇 Drop ONE thing in the comments: What’s something you learned this week or a goal you hit? Let the community celebrate with you. Let’s end this week strong.

Most people never hit scale because they stay trapped in transaction mode. One deal. Then starting over. Another deal.Then back to scrambling for leads again. No real systems. No momentum that compounds. And honestly? A lot of people stay stuck there because they’re trying to build a multifamily business completely alone. That’s a hard way to grow. The investors who scale the fastest are usually in rooms where: 👉 deals are being discussed in real time 👉 capital conversations are happening 👉 strategies are being sharpened 👉 relationships are being built That’s the point of the Multifamily Investors Club. This is not another “watch a webinar and disappear” type event. This is a high-level room for investors who are serious about: 🏢 Bigger opportunities 📈 Smarter deal structure 🤝 Better partnerships 💰 Long-term portfolio growth Real conversations. Real strategy. Real multifamily thinking. If you’ve been feeling stuck trying to level up on your own…this is the room you need to be in. Comment CLUB and I’ll send you the private invite.

Im aspiring to do my first commercial deal by the end of the year, but something keeps pulling me back to what feels comfortable in the single space.
