WHAT IS A FAMILY OFFICE AND WHY SHOULD EVERY REAL ESTATE INVESTOR KNOW THIS?

In this episode of The Real Estate Investing Club, host Gabriel Petersen sits down with Richard C. Wilson — founder of FamilyOffices.com and the Family Office Club — to uncover one of the most powerful and underutilized capital sources in real estate investing. If you've been wondering how to raise capital for your next syndication or private equity deal, this is your roadmap. 🏦💰 The family office industry is larger than all of private equity and all of venture capital combined, yet most investors have never learned how to access it. Richard has spent 19 years mastering this space, and today he shares everything.

HOW TO RAISE CAPITAL FROM ULTRA-WEALTHY INVESTORS AND FAMILY OFFICES

Richard shares battle-tested strategies for approaching family offices and high-net-worth investors. According to research by Dr. Robert Cialdini, you are 16 times more likely to close a deal in person — and Richard explains why that matters even more in an era where AI can fake virtually everything digitally. 🤝 He walks through what ultra-wealthy investors want to see, from a sharp one-liner pitch and a one-minute video to a concise 15-page pitch deck rather than a bloated 44-page one. Trust — in the person, the market, and the opportunity — is the only currency that matters when competing for the top 0.1% of deal flow.

HOW TO START AND GROW YOUR OWN REAL ESTATE INVESTOR CLUB

One of the most eye-opening parts of this conversation is Richard's breakdown of building niche investor clubs — from doctor and dental investment groups to pro athlete networks. With over 1,300 investor clubs tracked globally and 30 in-person events per year generating five to six million dollars in revenue, Richard reveals what separates thriving clubs from ones stuck under $200K per year. 🚀 Whether your goal is to raise capital, source better deal flow, or build relationships with aligned investors, the investor club model is something every serious real estate entrepreneur needs to understand.

AI TOOLS THAT ARE TRANSFORMING REAL ESTATE INVESTING AND DUE DILIGENCE

Richard and Gabe dig into how artificial intelligence is reshaping deal analysis, negotiation structuring, and due diligence in real estate investing. Richard's team has built 57 unique AI tools — including a Deal Structure Ninja trained on 1,000 real deal structures, a billionaire advisory board simulator built from transcripts of real billionaires, and a deal screener that flags risks in PPMs before you ever speak with a sponsor. 🤖 If you have been skeptical about AI in your investing business, this conversation will shift your thinking. These are not gimmicks — they are the second brain that serious investors are using to move faster and make smarter, better-informed decisions.
