How to Find Funding Partners for Building a Home in a High-End Community?

Hello all,

We’re exploring the idea of possibly building a single-family home on a 2.66-acre vacant lot we own in a high-end community in South Carolina (to sell and split profits with a funding partner). We’re still in the early stages and just trying to figure out if this makes sense, so I’d love to hear thoughts from anyone with experience in real estate development of this nature.

We’re curious about how to finance a project like this, maybe through an investor or lender open to sharing profits after the sale. What kinds of funding setups or partners might work for a single-home project in a luxury community with amenities like a lake, clubhouse, and golf course, where homes typically sell for $1.5 million to $5 million?

If you have any practical tips or insights on navigating this kind of project, I’d appreciate hearing them. Thanks in advance!
