Creating Profit for Investors thru Class-A Apartments

[Mike Huang]

Hey everyone,

Out of pure curiosity, I started browsing Loopnet for a market I normally wouldn't even dare to look at. I saw a Class-A building, very newly built, in a location that I have 85% confidence will continue to rise in rents compared to expenses. 

Given how expensive this particular market is, I'd have to raise millions compared to the tens of thousands I've raised for my past deals. 

So what I'm curious about is what kind of financing models work so that investors can make money when major renovation won't be a value add? There are minor value adds like additional submetering. Is raising through equity/syndications the only way?
