Basically.....You invest the $50k-$60k up front for a single-family build or $100k for a duplex build.BTR company creates an entity together to own the asset.BTR company secures lending and builds out the asset over the next 6 months.Once it’s complete, BTR company refinance out and you get your $50k back + 16% at that point (or $100k + 16%)You retain 30% equity in the asset going forward (and therefore 30% of the cash flow or profit upon selling)Exit: 6-7 years once BTR company packages it and sells it to 4.5 Cap rate to Wallstreet.
