Hi team,I'm looking at a Real Estate Development opportunity within the Chicagoland area and will be tapping TIF and EB5 Funding.

For me it is about building a relationship with people to develop it, etc.

and how does one use it. and what is this new thingee and how does one use it.. in plain English.. us old RE developer lenders are pretty thick when it comes to this  we are too busy counting our money !

I see you have some web development experience.  

Although I'm not in that niche, I haven't heard about new 4-plex developments for instance.  

You need to know your market and for want of a better word develop a philosophy for your purchase.

I develop my own with help from hired independent contractors.

Or brand new developments. 

I personally know and have developed a relationship with my tenants. 

If your in development its very common for the city to ask for them on a new street or in front of a new project.
