Originally posted by @Joseph Binkowski:Hey BP Community -I was sitting-in on an investor presentation for a syndication of an attractive 320-unit Class B MF development in a fast-growing market, and then I realized... it was a 506c project for accredited investors only [which I am not.. yet:)]So then I began thinking...How can I possibly get involved?

I don't think rent to retirement can vet a deal any better than anyone else or you, they just have a bit of a system. but the new builds in Lehigh acres, Cape Coral, north port, etc are all garbage. septic systems, poor economics, low rent to purchase price ratios, you are banking on appreciation and buying at market. building direct is going to give you a competitive advantage on a 3 unit let's say worth 600,000 you are going to be 120k ahead than if you bought it through them. that's my analysis. if you are super lazy and too busy to make money and have millions to throw around then I'd recommend not thinking much about investing. but you can also invest in funds and be way omre passive than buying a new build from far away. but if you want to add real value then get involved and make it happen. getting wealthy isn't easy. you work hard for your money and there are build to rent developers like us that try to answer and add value to start buiding relationshipsl

The buyers had invested a lot into the deal (~$100M) and purchasing the property was critical to complete their development.

Heya Ethan.I've completed 7 secondary suite renovations/developments now and it is extremely difficult to do a true BRRRR where you pull every dime back out again after you refinance.

We are not currently under any sort of contract and we just found this thread through a google search on Lendbase.We are currently working on a construction loan to develop some residential lots, assumed the Mortgage Broker would be on the up and up... had some sales-ey call with a guy out of Utah. 

Also look at pricing softwares and adjust accordingly.

New builds, new developments, plenty of rentals within driving distance of the city center, and there are still plenty of areas where a good eye for a rehab job will get you a good ROI.

That perspective will help me focus on developing and reviewing statements tailored to the scale of my property.
