Lessons Learned From A $4.8 Million Cash Raise [Commercial Real Estate Development]
As you might expect, raising capital for commercial real estate isn’t all that easy. In fact, it’s my least favorite aspect of investing in commercial properties - I’d much rather stay in my lane and focus on deal sourcing and acquisitions, planning for and developing the project, and executing our ideas. However, capital is a finite resource and if you’re looking to grow your assets under management, you’ll need to throw that fuel on your fire and bring in outside capital from investors. I recently finalized a $4.8 million cash raise with my partners on a commercial development in Nashville. At 10x my largest capital raise to-date, this raise gave me some valuable insight to the entire process. So, here are my biggest takeaways.
