Groups that move quickly on large land plays usually include experienced land developers, family offices, private equity real estate shops, or institutional-leaning partners who already have dry powder and a track record with entitlement risk.

Rate matters, but structure often matters more.There’s a world of tools beyond rate shopping that can dramatically change your deal’s economics:Buydowns: Temporary rate reductions (like a 2-1 buydown) that ease you into full payments.Seller credits: Negotiate to have the seller cover closing costs or fund your buydown.Adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs): Useful if you plan to refinance or sell within a few years.Interest-only periods: Boost cash flow early, especially on value-add projects.Example:Let’s say you take a $300,000 loan.

Don't look now..but mortgage rates are down by a considerable margin compared to this time last year. Of note - are commercial loan and mortgage rates. We sold a large multi family complex in Q4 of last year that only...

However, $6k seems pretty high so I would recommend shopping around. 

More than any other business, deciding to invest in a real estate syndication is a declaration of faith in the deal sponsor.In many ways, that faith far outweighs the faith owners of Tesla shares must have in Elon Musk.And Musk is a one in a generation entrepreneurial genius inventor.Like many seasoned real estate investors,I decided long ago that wealth-building was a life-long game of patience and perseverance.On both counts,a real estate syndication fails the test.Most syndicated deals have a hold period of 3-7 years after which the exit strategy involves selling.The few that attempt to hold on to the asset via a refinance run into uncooperative investors who demand their seed capital back for various reasons,often resulting into a compromise to either buy them out or risk a legal battle.The facts of the matter are very basic:if it's not your deal,you don't make the big calls.Conversely,if it's not your money,you don't get to decide it's final destination.Now there's a good reason I never got into the flipping niche either.I'm not a transactional guy.It always felt like slaughtering the hen that lays my eggs,and I love my eggs to bits every time they are laid.It's why I keep going back to the hen.In the end,we don't need 1000 units to achieve financial freedom,we just need a handful of well acquired cash flowing assets to arrive at that place of peace.With some patience and due diligence,most people can get there without sleeping with 75 strangers every 3 years only to end up with no portfolio and a bagful of inflation susceptible cash with little to no tax advantages.That's where we did not want to be in the first place.If you do succumb to the temptation and end up being one of the few deal sponsors that actually look the part and take care of investors' money like it's yours,do make sure you haven't "quit" one job that you hate just to work in another that is even more soul-crushing.Managing multiple syndicated deals as a good deal sponsor can be big business,and big businesses can very easily turn into time-devouring leeches.Covid has shown us all we are nowhere near capable of seeing 3 months ahead,let alone 3 or 7 years.An asset is only really worth what the next buyer is willing to pay for it,no matter how much "forced appreciation" we have projected to investors in a rent drop environment.When balloon payments come due,thou shall sell or refinance,and good luck refinancing if the LTV is suddenly inverted.When the pieces suddenly don't fit the puzzle in front of us,the sinking feeling in the bottom of the stomach can be incredibly gut wrenching.Be careful.A voice in the wilderness,Jacksonville FL.

My plan is to run some wholesale and fix/flips to begin and eventually open my own shop and hire some additional agents at that point, but that's still a few years out. 

I haven't bought my first property yet (I'll start shopping in February) but today I started talking to my realtors about it to feel out which ones I want to include in my venture. 

But the truth is, it’s a mixed bag right now, and success really depends on how specific and strategic you get.Near Disney/Kissimmee, you’ll find tons of demand but also massive competition.
