Risk vs Return profile on syndications

[Jeremy Marquez]

Hi, I'm still relatively new to RE investing. This year, I've acquired 1 SFH turnkey in Tulsa and invested in my first apartment syndication. Both have been great learning experiences but as I look forward, I anticipate the majority of my investments will be in syndications, since I prefer the truly passive style involved.

Since I work full time and don’t need the investment income for living expenses, I was wondering what types of syndications are out there that perhaps offer less (or no) cash flow but higher growth potential? As I build my nest egg for the next 12 years or so, I’m willing to trade cash flow opportunities for higher growth opportunities (for at least a portion of my portfolio). What should I be looking at and researching that is in-line with this mind set? What should I be concerned about?

Thanks for your input

Development or redevelopment. These are of course a bit higher risk, but also have much higher reward potential. We haven't done development, but we do some redevelopment/repositions. These are properties that are in C or D condition, located in A or B class areas. Major renovation is then completed with no/minor cash flow for 2-3 years.
