Hello All,

Does anyone have suggestions on hiring someone who professionally raises equity and/or debt? Thanks!

Yes, as long as you make sure your deal fits what the advisor has done historically I think it’s a great idea and I’ve done it twice successfully

You could get a buy side advisor or DD advisor involved upfront if you have the funds, but for self funded, first time buyer, you should be super engaged in the process, I think. No one will sell the find raise as well as you, the operator, PG, and main investor.
