Experts Online - OD Practitioners -- Successful Joint Venture Strategies
Webcast Event - July 12, 2006; 2:00 - 3:30 PM
Have you thought about trying to joint venture with a for-profit developer, maybe to get some mixed-income and mixed-use traction in your neighborhood?
Have you heard one too many horror stories about CDCs who’ve run into problems? Help is on the way! Yes, mistakes have been made, but we’ve learned as well. LISC General Counsel Michael Levine, along with on-the-ground deal doers, a former CDC ED now at LISC and another CDC Commercial Director, are ready to describe success strategies, lessons learned and what they plan going forward. Is being a co-owner/co-manager the way to go? Here’s what you need to think about. Open to other arrangements, like deal broker who earns fees for services? That can produce results -- and revenue -- now and in the future. We can transform our hard-won but scattered affordable housing gains into thriving communities where market forces truly can and will start operating.
