Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Hard Hat to CEO, Chris G talks with Ryan Twomey, co-founder of TR Capital Partners, about how he went from a corporate finance job to owning over 500 rental units and why he shifted from being a landlord to investing in larger real estate deals through syndication. They break down what syndication is, how everyday professionals can get involved, and why it's a favorite strategy among the wealthy for building passive income and cutting taxes. From “phantom income” to smart investing tips, this episode is packed with real-world insights explained in a way that makes sense.

Ryan Twomey is the co-founder of TR Capital Partners, a real estate investment firm focused on helping professionals and business owners build passive income through multifamily syndications. He began his career in wealth planning and financial services before transitioning into real estate, where he now manages a portfolio of over 574 rental units across multiple states. After facing the challenges of being a hands-on landlord, Ryan pivoted to real estate syndication, giving investors access to cash-flowing properties without the headaches of property management. He’s passionate about financial freedom, long-term wealth building, and educating others on how to use real estate to offset taxes and grow generational wealth. Based in Massachusetts, Ryan collaborates with a nationwide network of investors and operators, always seeking to partner with growth-minded individuals.
