@Brandon BellIf you have a loan officer you are planning on working with, it might be best to consult them first on the best route to go for this scenario.

@Ravi KaruturiRavi, a Project with a $10M “all in” cost will typically support a 70%-80% loan to cost (LTC).This means that you can borrow $7M-$8M which means that you will have to invest an equity infusion of $3M-$2M.More fundamentally, if you are asking a question like this, your priorities need adjusting.Raising capital from whomever, and especially from friends and family must come after you have acquired and can demonstrate the skills necessary to build a $10M ground up development.I believe that if you pursue a plan to raise the equity required that you will find it very difficult to secure bank debt without a track record and or the skills noted above.Feel free to reach out to me if you want to talk.
