In Episode 26 of The Stephen Lee-Thomas Show, we talk multifamily real estate with Dave Dubeau, who has helped countless capital raisers generate millions in committed capital, not by chasing investors, but by attracting them.

Dave shares his unique journey from language school entrepreneur in Costa Rica to a full-time real estate educator and capital raising expert based in British Columbia, Canada. After several real estate investing pivots including rent-to-own and multifamily, Dave found his sweet spot: helping syndicators and fund managers systematize their investor outreach using podcasting.

In this episode, you’ll hear how Dave helps clients book 20+ accredited investor meetings a month, and why he believes building relationships before pitching is the smarter, more scalable path to raising capital.

Whether you're an apartment syndicator, fund manager, or W-2 professional trying to raise money for your deals, this episode is a must-listen.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How to turn your podcast into a lead-generating machine for accredited investors
  • Why attracting investors beats chasing them every time
  • How to get high-level professionals to want to talk with you (and eventually invest with you)
  • The exact pre-call and post-call system Dave uses to move guests into soft/warm commitments
