Insights to Build Rock Solid Partnerships with Garrett Lynch, Ep. 614

Multifamily Insights

Garrett Lynch, a graduate of Illinois State University with a degree in Marketing, Sales, and Organizational Leadership, initially managed a successful nightlife business in Chicago. Leveraging his industry contacts, he began investing in small multifamily projects with foreign capital. In 2013, at the age of 26, Garrett co-founded a multifamily acquisitions firm, starting with D class Section 8 properties on Chicago's South Side and scaling to 3,400 units across 10 markets. He personally sourced over 70% of this portfolio, primarily off-market, and implemented vertical integration with over 125 employees for property management.

After selling his shares in the firm, Garrett traveled to 17 countries and 33 cities, including Vietnam, Japan, New Zealand, and North Korea. Returning to the U.S., he partnered with Michael Blank and Andrew Kniffin to acquire 150+ unit value-add multifamily assets nationwide. Currently controlling over $300M in multifamily real estate, Garrett also co-hosts the Apartment Investing Podcast with Michael Blank. He is passionate about fitness, international travel, deal-making, and mentoring others in real estate investing.
