Would You Rather Syndicate or Go Solo? Let’s Debate.

[Robert Ellis]

When it comes to raising capital for real estate projects, syndication is a popular strategy—but is it the best? By pooling funds from multiple investors, you can take down larger deals, but it also comes with legal complexity, investor management, and ongoing reporting requirements.

For those of you who have syndicated deals before:

• 1. What structures have worked best for you (LP/GP, equity splits, preferred returns)?

• 2. How do you attract and retain high-net-worth investors?

• 3. Have you explored SPVs or crowdfunding platforms as alternatives?

And for those considering syndication:

• 1. What’s holding you back?

• 2. Are the SEC regulations intimidating, or do you need help structuring a deal?
