Joint Venture, Syndicate or Go It Alone
Hi all hope everyone is doing great.
Your thoughts:
I’m a commercial realtor and General Contractor in Knoxville TN. I specialize in multi family. Over the past 6 yrs between importing materials and rehabs I’ve been involved in over 3,000 units value adds across the south east for others.
I want to start value adding my own deals but don’t have the funds for the size deals I want to go after. I do have the resources to value add though.
Should I find joint ventures, syndicate or just start small and work my way up to bigger deals.
Thanks all for your time.
Happy investing.

@Will Morris I 2nd "all of the above" as the option. JV with others who can round out the team. Syndicate 80 to 90% of the equity with passive investors.
My biz exploded when I found the right partner. We are nearly exact opposites and together the value of the team is great than the sum of the parts.
All the best man!
