    Should your business mantra be “Go big or go home,” or “Too big not to fail”? In a lively, freewheeling exchange intended to educate emerging entrepreneurs and perhaps amuse mature ones, John McNellis author of the ULI book “Making It in Real Estate,” explores the benefits-and costs-of using other people’s money to fund your development deals versus the freedom-and limitations-of using your own money. Is it better to own 1 percent of a high-rise or 100 percent of a gas station? To go national or stay local? Spoiler alert: You can go broke either way.
    Speaker:
    John E. McNellis of McNellis Partners LLC

    I enjoy how humble this guy is. Good talk. As a last note, crowdfunding is a mess, you have to have existing projects worth tens of millions under management for the crowdfunding platform to even look at your deal.

      It makes sense, crowdfunding portals want all of their investors to win, so they are very conservative with the promoters they select. CV makes a good point, you can make your own portal, but it's mostly a marketing issue.

    regarding spikes in earnings - what about you structure the sale in a way that buyer does not pay all at once (to your financial partner), but pays within X amount of years? I know it was just an example though, but my idea is that you can always be creative :)

    Realistically
    How much would one need to get started ?

    • @Victor35b
      @Victor35b 5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Depends on the project size, and type. Ex. Project in AZ: Cost of land ~140K, cost to build ~$130 per square foot on a 2000 Sqft house is 260K. General area for those numbers can sell for about 650K. That is not including demolition costs, permits, etc. But on a deal like this you can find a lender that is willing to fund up to 90% of the deal (this is normal), the other 10% would be what you need to put down. Some lenders will not fund building costs or on a flip, repair costs. However, some will. Hence, the amount you need to get started is contingent upon the deal.
