While there, he advised clients on a variety of business combination transactions, equity financings, real estate syndications, real estate funds, mortgage pools, and performing and non-performing note pools. He is himself a real estate investor, author, speaker and educator having written two books about private money lenders. Currently, Powell is working on a real estate syndication eBook. He is a graduate of the University of Montana’s Alexander Blewett III School of Law. Additionally, Powell holds certificates in Venture Finance from VC University Online (University of California, Berkeley) and in Commercial Real Estate from Cornell University.
