Fund or Syndication?

[Eric Michiels]

Hi, I'm working with a church to convert their space into an apartment complex where the church will have it's meeting room on the first floor and we will build apartments above the meeting room. 

I'm raising funds for the project and would like to understand if i should create a fund for investors or just do Syndication. I understand how a fund is created and it cost about $15K, but I don't know how to legally structure syndication. 

Any advice on which way to proceed? If I should do the fund rasing with syndication, who should I talk to about the legal structure?

Thank you,

Eric
