Is fractional investing the same as doing a partial?

Ok first I’m trying to get my foot in the door in the NPN space. No complaints so far; it’s not an easy get rich thing so just plugging away.
I don’t understand partials but I came across something called fractional investing (I believe the term was)
This is a little different than a note. It’s actually a first lien position on the property based on the amount you put in. So for instance say 6 people go in to lending $600,000 to a developer (these are all non occupied investment properties in Texas) and all 6 put In $600,000, supposedly all six people will have their name as a first lien holder on the property.
It’s a lower return than what’s expected from a NPN but much less risk.
The one I’m looking at is a development of a two story commercial retail center with a LTV of 45%. All borrowers must pass a criminal background check and personally guarantee the loan.
Further should they not fulfill there obligation it’s Texas so foreclosure is fast. Exit strategy is expected payoff or refinance in 9-12 months.
Reason I’m doing this is while I work my way through building my NPN business I don’t want to leave cash sitting in the bank not making money.
ROI is expected to be between 8-10%. Sure not some of the much higher numbers that are available in the NPN world but better than what I’m getting now by far WHILE I continue to work on NPN as stated above.
Just curious if this is similar to doing a partial?
Thanks for any help.
