    Lindahl has also authored numerous

    What’s most surprising is that Lindahl
was at first reluctant to accept responsi-
bility for other people’s money, but he re-
alized it was the only way he could reach
his goal of amassing 10,000 units. So, he
set out to formulate a program to stream-
line the process and ensure maximum
success.
    We recently caught up with Dave in be-
tween his travels to discuss syndications
and their importance in growing a well-
balanced real estate portfolio.
