If you can show that your project will be profitable (comps, etc), that you can complete it properly and that you are serious about protecting your investors you will have a much easier time finding money partners.

My question is because a HML has all the resources to protect the private money source, ie; they have lawyer connections for foreclosure, a network for evaluating property, a servicing company ect... if a private money source wants to be able to use all the HML sources can the PM Investor/ TD investor choose to have the HML originate the loan as a JV?

They also did not just choose to not purchase flood insurance, it was to their understanding not available to them because their community was not part of some flood protection program, but I really don't know the details.To say my dad is not successful would be completely false, as he is very successful in comparison to the vast majority of our local population and I lived I privileged child hood - so it's not a matter specifically of my potential of earning for more income.

My state laws allow for such caps and outright bans, so I have no legal protection.
