Be the best informed and prepared and you should outperform your competitors and investors will begin seeking you out.

For example if the project is only 60% occupied and you have a clear plan to lease up to 95% then it is the way to go.In this case long term takeout financing is NOT available at 60% occupancy, therefore you have to get creative.

I'm thinking it's time for a creative real estate deal.

RE financing from an institutional lender is nothing to get creative with, without full disclosure of the deal.....ever.

Approach them with normal and then inquire about more creative approaches and see if they are receptive, if they aren't you know and while you can do something different, you'll know how to approach them if you do need them.

Before looking for a new market with better numbers, I wanna give this market my best shot as I am already invested there in many ways.My latest idea is not compete where its most competitive and get more creative.

Your advice will help me prepare my questions.

It just gives me a bit of creative leisure as well as a productive skill I get to see how it affects others.

Due diligence can suppress issues down the road but when fibbing (i am being nice) takes place be prepared for the worst.

What are somethings i need to be prepared for when doing this long distance?
