Fund management and asset management are two completely different beasts. Joining us today to help educate us on the former is Jennifer Joyce, Owner of JJ Capital Investments. Jennifer has over 20 years of real estate experience, is the fund manager for a 100-million-dollar fund through the Global Housing Assistance Fund, and is a GP on over 1,300 units. In this episode, Jennifer talks us through the intricacies of fund management based on her experience. We find out why her fund is exclusive to multifamily, how long it took to launch, and the criteria her fund allocation is based on before she explains how your resume is cleared the moment you start a fund and why you need to rebuild your fund-specific track record to land family office investments. We also discover why this particular fund is open-ended and what her long-term goals for it are, as well as the reason behind its close resemblance to the direct asset syndication model. Tune in for another insightful episode and some succinct advice for those looking to start a fund of their own!
