REIT vs. Single Real Estate Deal: Which Should You Invest In?

About This Episode

Should you invest in a REIT or a single real estate deal? In this episode of The Multifamily Investor Playbook, Mark Faris and John Makarewicz break down the pros and cons of each — and why they believe direct, single-asset syndications give investors a clear edge.

You’ll learn:

✔ What a REIT is and how it works vs. a single deal syndication

✔ The trade-off between liquidity (REITs) and higher upside (single deals)

✔ How direct investing offers more control, transparency, and alignment with operators

✔ Why tax advantages (return of capital, capital gains, cost segregation) matter

✔ How Faris Capital Partners’ 28-Day Transformation creates impact for residents and boosts investor returns

Whether you’re focused on liquidity, diversification, or long-term wealth creation, this conversation will help you decide which strategy aligns best with your goals.
