My son recently talked to me about being a sponsor on a sophisticated value add.  

Traditional non-residential and new development syndicators have similar challenges.Look for syndicators that are leveraging a more sophisticated value add. 

Compare this to other sponsors on here who are getting completed roasted, and it comes down to them being smaller, not communicating and appear to be focused on their next fund and not the ones they have.I think really the key to answer the status of those syndication is if we have AI that can do sophisticated intel and ask something like these :Hey ChatGPT, what is the current occupancy and DSCR of Apartment at 123 Main St, PA 11222 ? 

When you are forming all sorts of small partnerships with no real "corporate" backing and pooled asset base to provide security for the counterparty, typically you can't get a swap.right so one of this big group that brought swap is making huge win when rate is going up, i would not reveal their name, you are right it's not for everyone juice. but for us small LP, investing to those big group and the small newbie sndication, is just about the same.for swap, i read in pensford website and they are really sophisticated, leant tons about interest rate.

@Spencer CuelloSpark Investment Group generally does 506b deals open to sophisticated and accredited investors. 506b rules require syndication sponsors have a relationship with the investors prior to entering into any investments.

If at the end of the first year with your rental property in operation that you are able to profit $10,000 from cash flow after all operational expenses and debt service were paid, your COC return would be $10,000/$30,000 or 33%.Sophisticated investors compare COC with other investments to determine the highest and best use for their liquidity going into an investment whereas ROE is used once the investment is owned.

Most M&P sophistication stops at an LLC.

They want your business, and it does not pay for them to be a shark when they are dealing with a sophisticated clientele.
