Large multi family deals (how to invest)

Hi All.

I am a small time investor with just a few properties here in New York. I think I am at a point in my professional and investing career where I do not want to increase my exposure to New York, I also don’t feel comfortable to seek investments out of state by myself (perhaps with a partner).

I have come across a few syndication sponsors, mainly the guys who have podcasts and looked at a few PPMs and reviewed their presentations. Found a few that charged an arm and leg upfront (5.0% origination fee on commitment and in some cases collecting carry before full principal is repaid along with a hurdle in the payment waterfall). So needless to say those have been red flags and I didn’t pursue those. Or maybe I am looking at this incorrectly and 5% upfront is very much in line with industry? Obviously sponsors should be paid an upfront for the work they have done in bringing the deal, but I am still having a hard time with a 5 point fee day 1. Would prefer something where the incentives are more aligned and tied to long term success of the deal.

Where do you typically come in contact with out of state sponsors and investors? Thanks.

Regards,

Przemek

@Richard Neuharth

2% seems totally reasonable.

Some of the ones I have looked at are popular in that they have their own podcasts, so maybe easier to reach and available to a wider audience and therefore are just capitalizing on supply/demand mismatch.
