What to Look for in a Real Estate Syndication Deal

03-2023

Real Estate Syndications 

Investors who want to access larger, high-value commercial real estate projects should look into real estate syndication deals. But not all syndication deals are the same, so it’s critical to know what to look for before you part with your hard-earned cash.

At F2H Capital Group, we focus on real estate syndication deals that provide investors with at least a 21% Internal Rate of Return (IRR). We welcome your contact if you’re eager to learn more about our investment opportunities. In the interim, the following are some important aspects to take into account when analyzing a real estate syndication deal.

Track Record of the Sponsor

A real estate syndication deal’s sponsor is the person or business in charge of finding the deal, overseeing the property, and allocating profits to investors. Prior to making an investment, it is critical to investigate the track record of the sponsor because their knowledge and experience will have a direct bearing on the outcome of the investment.

We have a track record of success in the real estate sector at F2H Capital Group. Our team has successfully closed transactions totaling more than $1 billion over the course of our many years of commercial real estate experience. We strive hard every day to produce excellent results, and we’re happy to have gained the confidence of our investors.

The Property’s Location and Market

Other crucial elements to take into account include the property’s location and market. You want to make an investment in a house that has solid market fundamentals and is situated in a desirable neighborhood. This includes elements like population growth, employment growth, and financial stability.

At F2H Capital Group, our main area of investment is real estate in dynamic markets with solid fundamentals. Our team carefully assesses each property to make sure it satisfies our investment criteria and has a thorough understanding of the market.

The Investment Structure

It’s important to know how your investment will be structured before investing in a syndication deal because the investment structure can vary. Typical structures include:

  1. Equity: Investors get a piece of the profits and a piece of the property.
  2. Preferred Equity: investors have less ownership in the property but receive a fixed return on their investment before other investors.
  3. Debt: Investors lend money to the sponsor and collect interest on the loan.

The majority of the time, at F2H Capital Group, we structure our syndication deals as equity investments. In addition to offering downside protection due to our conservative underwriting standards, this enables investors to share in the property’s upside potential.

The Sponsor’s Alignment of Interests

It’s crucial to invest with a sponsor whose interests are closely aligned with those of their investors. This indicates that the sponsor has a financial interest in the investment and is driven to increase returns for investors.

At F2H Capital Group, we put our own money into every deal we sponsor along with the money of our investors. This guarantees that our interests and those of our investors are completely aligned, and it also demonstrates our commitment to providing exceptional returns.

Risk Profile of the Investment

Before making an investment, it’s critical to understand the risk profile of a real estate syndication deal because all investments carry some level of risk. Several typical risks include:

  1. Market Risk: Due to shifting market conditions, the property’s value could decrease.
  2. Real estate investments typically have a low level of liquidity and can be challenging to sell quickly.
  3. Tenant Risk: If the property is rented to tenants, there is a possibility that tenants could quit or break their lease agreements.

At F2H Capital Group, we carefully assess the risks connected to every investment opportunity and work to reduce those risks through our cautious underwriting standards and proactive asset management.

Investors may find real estate syndication deals to be a great way to gain access to high-value commercial real estate projects. But it’s important to carefully assess each deal and take into account elements like the track record of the sponsor, the property’s location and market, the investment structure, the sponsor’s alignment of interests, and the investment’s risk profile. We take pride in providing syndication deals at F2H Capital Group that satisfy these requirements and provide investors with an IRR of at least 21%.
