Fortune favors the bold.

They show you potential savings - if everything works in your favor.

Whatever is measured is more likely to be changed in favor of what you want it to be.

I beleive this is an important distinction because you appear focused solely on apartment buildings that were acquired because of favorable debt or other bad projections. 

Getting the deal under contract at a favorable price for all parties is the biggest challenge.If you are able to obtain that, the buyer is much easier to find. 

Investing 30% of the equity and presumably guaranteeing the debt is more than you see most GP's contribute and should justify better splits in your favor than instances where you see a 5% or 10% co-investment.

Does this number require you to sell more to achieve a split which is more favorable to you vs them?

Speaking as a lender (not investor) with some experience in small balance commercial lending, I can tell you that it is likely going to be tough to find financing most likely as a lot of commercial lenders tend to stay away from churches, although could be more favorable if the building is true retail/office rather than a structure built specifically in the style of a traditional church (i.e. hard to transition to other tenants if needed)

While true student rentals typically operate on a per-bedroom basis, your lender might not favor this approach.

We got judgment in our favor.
