You could also act as an equity raise partner on the GP side of a syndication.  You bring the investors and partner with an operator who has experience in syndication for either a finders fee or a percentage of the GP equity.  Great way to learn the business!

Just beware that getting paid a finders fee for raising money is illegal unless they are properly licensed. Being on the GP side and compensated is okay, if structured properly.

Should be about 3.5-4% of total collected income for that size

My colleagues and I say out the acronym all the time. Different circles I guess.

I see. Do all due diligence items have to be specifically stated/listed or can some items be assumed that they are part of due diligence?

Mine lists everything

My PSA always state that the DD period starts upon receipt of all agreed upon documents.

Talking to capital raisers I've seen their fee at 35%-50% percent of the GP equity stake if they raise all of the capital. If they raise a portion of it then that would be prorated.

Unless it was an off-market deal (email blast means it's not) or if you have it under contract already, I'm not sure why someone would give you a finders fee for being on a mailing list.
