Need more ways to get your deals in front of capital?

That’s a big part of what we’re building inside the Best Ever Inner Circle.

Members get multiple opportunities to expand their investor network, including:

→ Meet accredited LPs at monthly investor events
→ Pitch deals to fund managers through Best Ever Pitch Slam LIVE
→ Present opportunities to active fund managers through Connected Capital
→ Build a pipeline of passive investor conversations through LinkedIn
→ Learn what other operators are doing to raise capital right now

As Joe Fairless explains in this video, the Inner Circle was built to amplify what experienced operators are already doing by giving them the tools, resources, relationships, and expert access to grow.

If raising more capital is a priority for your CRE business, let’s talk.

🏆 THE CHAMP IS BACK.

Chris Lenoir won the last Best Ever Pitch Slam. On September 30, he returns to defend his title in front of a brand new panel of judges.

This time, Chris and Haverkamp Group are bringing Attivo Trail Omaha to the judges:

🏡 Class A, 55+ active adult living
🏗️ 165 units in Phase 1
💰 $14.1M target raise
📍 Omaha, Nebraska
📈 Potential expansion to 286 units

It’s Haverkamp Group’s third Class A 55+ community, but past success won’t get Chris a free pass.

He still has to make the pitch, face a brand new panel of judges, and earn another PURSUE.

🔥 Can the defending champion keep the title?

Watch it happen LIVE at the Best Ever Pitch Slam on September 30 at 12 PM ET.

We built the Best Ever Inner Circle to be the CRE group we’d want to join ourselves.

A growth system for experienced commercial real estate operators and fund managers who are actively raising capital, finding deals, making acquisitions, building teams, and navigating the challenges that come with growing a real business.

And now we’re giving you a better look inside.

In this video, Inner Circle members share what they’ve found most valuable, from the relationships and accountability to expert sessions, capital-raising resources, deal support, AI tools, and simply having experienced operators available when a problem comes up.

Because sometimes the biggest value isn’t another piece of information.

It’s knowing who to call when you need it.

As one member says in the video:

“If we’re struggling with a problem, there’s a group of really smart people that have either already struggled with that problem and solved it, or they’re struggling together with us.”

That’s the Inner Circle.

Experienced operators. Real business challenges. Practical solutions. And a group that’s continually being built around what CRE operators actually need right now.

When evaluating private real estate opportunities, investors may have more than one way to fund their investment.

In addition to taxable funds, some investors may choose to invest through self-directed retirement accounts.

Recognizing retirement capital as a potential funding source can help sponsors have more informed conversations and broaden awareness of available funding options.

The raise didn’t stall because you ran out of investors.

It stalled because there was never a system underneath it.

As I said on the Best Ever stage:

“Good people don’t fix broken systems. Broken systems break good people.”

If every raise starts with a new list, a new deck, and a new scramble, you’re not building momentum. You’re starting over every time.

First, audit what you’re doing now.

Then systemize what works.

Then optimize it.

That’s the framework behind Unlimited Investor Leads.

“I don’t have the deal yet, so how do I raise the money?”

That’s the wrong way to think about it.

You don’t start raising capital once you have a deal under contract.

By then, the clock is already ticking.

The best operators are building investor relationships long before there’s a deal to fund. They know who is interested, what they’re looking for, and where their capital is likely to come from.

So when the right opportunity shows up, they’re not starting from zero.

The deal might create urgency.

But the capital raising happens long before the deal.

Your deal is not your unfair advantage.
Not the returns.
Not the structure.
Not how well you packaged the offering.

There are 10, 20, maybe a thousand other fund managers positioning a nearly identical opportunity right now.

Most first-time capital raisers don't realize this. They find a good deal, package it well, and lead with it. Here's the return. Here's why this asset works. And they let the deal carry the entire conversation.

That's not a pitch. That's a bidding war. Because if the deal is the reason someone invests, the only thing left to compete on is who pays more for the same opportunity.

The fund managers who raise consistently do not lead with the deal. They lead with the reason someone should want to work with them specifically. Their team. Their track record. The way they think about risk. The specific edge that means they see what other managers miss.

Not because the deal doesn't matter. Because the deal was never the differentiator to begin with.

Unlimited Investor Leads breaks down how to package your unfair advantage so LPs choose you before they ever see the deal.

Capital doesn't follow the best deal in the room. It follows the manager investors trust the most.

Many private fund sponsors spend little time educating investors about using retirement assets for alternative investments.



Understanding how self-directed IRAs work can help create more informed conversations with prospective investors.

For sponsors, a stronger understanding of retirement account investing can help support:

Better investor education
Smoother investor conversations
Broader capital awareness

Familiarity with self-directed IRAs may also make it easier to answer common questions, explain the investment process, and recognize retirement capital as a potential source of funding for private offerings.

There's something different about getting everyone in the same room.

For months, our Best Ever Inner Circle members have been connecting over Google Meet, sharing ideas in WhatsApp, helping each other navigate acquisitions, capital raises, lender challenges, and everything in between.

Yesterday, those conversations came to life in Cincinnati.

We spent the day sharing what’s working, brainstorming through real business challenges, and learning from each other's experiences. There were plenty of "I hadn't thought about it that way" moments, new connections formed, and ideas that will have a real impact long after everyone gets home.

One of our favorite parts of the day was right before we wrapped up.

We asked every member to write down their biggest takeaway on a flip chart. Looking at the finished board, it was a great reminder that the value of a room like this isn't just the conversations, it's what people choose to implement afterward.

And of course, we couldn't end the day without heading over to Great American Ball Park to enjoy a Reds game together. ⚾️

A huge thank you to everyone who traveled to Cincinnati, showed up ready to contribute, and made this such a fantastic day. The willingness this group has to openly share ideas, experiences, and lessons learned is what makes this community so special.

Until next time!

Our Best Ever Inner Circle members are together for a full day of strategy, collaboration, and real conversations with experienced commercial real estate operators.

Big ideas. Honest conversations. New relationships. Practical takeaways.

Looking forward to an incredible day. Let's get to work. 🚀
