Meet Jonathan Twombly
Investment Educator, Syndication Pro and Creator of Ignition Sequence
I’m Jonathan, the creator of Ignition Sequence. I developed this program for apartment investment newcomers as well those who’ve started down this path but keep hitting snags. And believe me, I know those snags. I probably hit every one of them when I got started.
Now, backed by a Facebook following of over 10,000 enthusiasts, my investment training programs have helped hundreds of people go from doubts and overwhelm to finding and making smart multifamily investment deals with total confidence—and incredible results.
JONATHAN’S STORY
I desperately needed a career change.
After a lot of confusion and upheaval, I left a high-powered, high-grind, soul-squashing life as a New York City lawyer to become a full-time multifamily real estate investor—and never looked back. After conquering a gauntlet of trials and errors, I finally built my first 404-unit portfolio, using passive investor money, in about 11 months.
The results: After fours years, I sold my portfolio and nearly doubled my investors’ money.
My journey: I made mistakes, some of which cost me serious time and money. But when the deals started to work, they really worked. That’s how I learned the tactics and strategies laid out in this program.
How I learned: In the trenches, looking for opportunities, rallying investors and trying to work with brokers who didn’t want to give me the time of day at first.
How I almost got stuck forever: Listening to a million podcasts, taking completely over-priced investment training courses from internet gurus and going down research rabbit holes online.
Why I created Ignition Sequence: It’s the straightforward, action-driven course I wish I’d had. Through this new interactive program format, I take you through everything you need to know to create a successful apartment investment business over the course of 8 weeks together. You’ll learn everything I learned the hard way—and how to avoid common setbacks—for a price that actually makes sense.
Why I teach others: Frankly, I think most real estate investment courses are over-complicated, over-priced and leave too many people feeling overwhelmed and like there’s something wrong with them. People come to me afterwards, dazed and disheartened. That stops here.
With Ignition Sequence, I take you by the hand and give you, literally, everything you actually need to know, in a simple, logical sequence so you can build the business you want. There’s no hype and no gimmick to this. It’s an interactive program that takes you from to A to Z as an apartment investor, supporting you every step of the way as you acquire the skills you need.

Real Estate Courses with Industry "Gurus" Disappointed Me
When I first got started, there were some real estate gurus around, and I used their materials. But usually, they were very surface level and left me with more questions than they answered.
Like many of my students, I found they:
- Held back critical information for higher levels of membership
- Lacked a logical sequence
- Lacked step-by-step explanations for what I actually needed to do next
- Left out critical information that cost me thousands of dollars
- Glossed over the idea of work, leaning on get rich quick promises
- Charged way, way too much
- Weren’t even taught by their founders—just a course facilitator
I could have gone so much farther faster without the time-consuming, money-wasting rookie errors I made along the way that slowed my progress... errors that would have been avoidable if I’d only known to look out for them. But none of these pitfalls were ever addressed in any real estate book or guru program I found.


Ignition Sequence is the Program I Wish I’d Had
I’ve closed deals worth tens of millions of dollars, earning incredible returns for investors. But I had to learn a lot the hard way.
Ignition Sequence represents both the knowledge I wish I’d had and the format that would have helped me actually get into action.
This course isn’t about hype, excitement or promises of a flashy lifestyle—all used to bait people into paying too much for real estate courses.
I’ll teach you how to find rapid success in apartment investment syndication, building financial success for yourself and the people lucky enough to invest with you. It offers what I couldn’t find:
- Concrete, logical, action-sparking steps for every stage of the apartment business
- Sample tools, letters and checklists that let you hit the ground running
- Personal guidance from a pro
- Accountability and community of peers
There are wild pipe dreams - but running
a syndication shouldn’t be one of them
An idea is a pipe dream if almost no one can do it. Buying into apartments—with investor money—shouldn’t fall into that camp. While there is a learning curve, thousands of people worldwide have figured it out.
In the beginning, will you feel like an imposter and an outsider? Probably. My hand is raised. It may feel like an epic career flop is looming. That fear of failure kept me up at night. But that’s where we all start and the way we get out of it is simple: we learn this business, step by step, and build a rock-solid foundation for success.
That’s what Ignition Sequence is all about.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, you’ll learn how to approach investors with confidence and ensure you always have funds ready when you find great opportunities.
Absolutely! It will work if you do the work. I created this program through my own trial and error, successes and failures, to help aspiring multifamily real estate investors to get started without struggling like I did. This is the exact method I used when I started to close my first deals.
That is the whole point of this program. I developed it for people who know they want to break into this business but life keeps getting in the way. Some of you may have joined a self-guided program and tried to walk through some of the information yourself only to stop halfway through. That happens. That’s exactly why I designed this more guided, interactive and accountability-promoting program. You’ll be working directly with a peer group of students and meeting with me and the group weekly.
You'll have access to my free Facebook community, and I'm there answering questions and providing guidance frequently. While there isn't any one-on-one assistance in this particular program, you'll become part of a community of like-minded multifamily real estate investors and you'll be supported throughout your endeavors.
What is taught in this program is the method that successful syndicators follow to get their first deals. Market conditions influence how quickly you secure a first deal but the more closely you follow the program the better your chances of securing a deal rapidly.
Now you do! This course introduces you to at least one seasoned pro—me—plus a whole community of peers, some of whom have a great deal of experience in finance and other real estate investment strategies. So you’ll be building a tribe right out of the gates.
I’m an introvert too and I excel at and enjoy this field. We’ll cover how to build a business and be an introvert at the same time. The real estate industry is famous for being a people and relationship business but I’ll unpack and even debunk some of those myths.
The implementation program is 12 weeks long. You should plan on investing 2 - 5 hours/week of your time into the materials, including the weekly calls.
Absolutely. I designed this to program to clear the clutter and confusion that’s rampant in the real estate education industry.
Nope! This program is complete and will take you by the hand to lay the foundation of your investment business. You may wish to join my Multifamily Launchpad community at the end of the program just to broaden your network and keep up the support, but it’s not a requirement.
Yes, there is. I want this program to be right for you. Watch the first two modules and join the first two calls risk-free. If you feel the program isn’t right for you after that, just let me know within 72 hours of that second call, and you will get a full refund. No hard feelings and no questions asked.
Have Your Business Up Fast in the New Year
We won’t offer this course again until summer 2021 so don’t wait too long and regret it. With just 2 to 3 hours per week, you can learn everything you need to know to launch your business and be deal-ready in the new year. Join us for this great introductory rate.
Remember that you can try the program and decide. If it’s not for you, no worries. But the worst thing to do is nothing - making no decision at all. So keep after it and keep moving closer to your financial freedom and personal path to success. I'm carrying all the risk here
Before you do nothing and keep hanging out asking Google for the right answers, think carefully about what it's costing you to stay stuck. How much of your life are you spending right now trading hours for dollars?
If you decide the most powerful next step for you is to join Ignition Sequence and allow me to guide you toward your goal, then now is the time. I’ll see you on the inside to get your business rolling.
