Diligence questions when evaluating commercial investment

Hi all, thanks for considering the below questions and providing your thoughts.

I've been involved in SFH investing, and recently have started looking towards investment in other people's multi-family development projects (syndication?).

I am evaluating my first investment opportunity and am admittedly novice to multifamily and syndication. I have received the vision and high level prospectus for the development, a subscription agreement to purchase Class A membership interests in the company, and a sheet outlining past development completions and their returns over the last about 10 years.

I am meeting the CEO of the development and investment company on Friday. My primary question to the BP community is this: What are some of the questions I should be asking right out of the gate to qualify this investment opportunity? 

Here are some of the details that I discern would be helpful to know:

- Property type is senior living center, mix of independent living homes and apartments, assisted living apartments, and care residences. Large shared spaces and common areas. (100 beds total)

- Development with intention to operate, including food services, activities, and care.

- Advertised expected return: Preferred 6%, IRR Year 6 28%, and return on equity 13%

- Development team is a major capital investor and also will be self performing some of the work

Thank you for any insight you may have.

@Mark Kelley Joe Fairless has a great article of questions you can and should ask about the deal and overall about being a passive investor. Check out the article here and let me know if I can personally answer any questions. Happy to help.
