Insights for Regulation D Sponsors from the 2011 REISA Annual Conference
Posted in Real Estate Syndications on October 22, 2011
The REISA Annual Conference offered a lot of great advice for success in the real estate syndication market. Sponsors, due diligence officers, and other industry experts offered guidance to new sponsors looking to raise capital through Regulation D private placements. Having worked with Reg. D sponsors for 15 years, it was good to see the industry still values the same basic “best practices” such as: (i) sticking to your core competency (i.e., if your experience is in retail, don’t be too quick to bring an office project to market, (ii) simplicity sells (don’t get too cute or complicated with your deal structures), (iii) transparency is now more valued than ever (don’t bother trying to hide fees, relationships with affiliates, past regulatory problems), (iv) set reasonable expectations, and (v) a strong commitment to compliance and ethics.
