    Welcome to the lab. Today, we're thrilled to have Seth Bradley, a real estate securities attorney, fund manager, and Chief Legal Officer at Tribevest. With a background as a fund manager, lead sponsor, real estate broker, and startup executive, Seth has a deep understanding of capital raising, deal structuring, and compliance in commercial real estate. His passion lies in educating investors on how to legally and effectively raise capital, structure deals, and scale their portfolios.


    In this insightful episode, Seth unpacks the nuances of raising capital the right way, the importance of securities compliance, and the power of fund structures in real estate. He shares how he transitioned from being a real estate attorney working on syndications to actively raising capital himself—leveraging his expertise to grow a portfolio that scaled to $120 million in acquisitions in 2022 alone. Seth explains why most people raising capital are doing it wrong, the legal pitfalls of co-GP models, and why fund-of-funds structures are becoming the go-to model for capital raisers. He also covers the importance of authority, trust, and network when raising capital and how to structure deals in a way that benefits both the syndicator and the investors.


    If you're looking to raise capital legally, scale your portfolio faster, and structure deals the right way, this episode is packed with must-know insights that can save you from legal trouble while maximizing your profits. Tune in now to learn how to legally raise capital, build a fund, and become an authority in your space!
