Quotes:

“The pros [of syndication and joint venture investments], number one, you know the exact property you're investing in, and you can see the strategy the syndicator plans on executing upfront.“ - Andrew Keel

“There are typically at least two different classes in regard to ownership shares held by the members of the entity or LLC acquiring the property.“ - Andrew Keel

“The primary downside to JV deals is the large amount of equity required for each deal.”- Andrew Keel

“With 506(b) investments, there must be an established prior relationship between the operator and the limited partner investor. Marketing of the securities is not allowed and this can make it a little more difficult to find these types of investment opportunities.“ - Andrew Keel
