Equity Brokerage Groups that Specialize in placing or sourcing Opportunity Zone capital for a single project?
Is anyone aware of any brokerage groups that specialize in opportunity zones? I am looking for a group that specializes in the opportunity zone space that would be able to source equity for a multifamily development project. The total capitalization would be approximately $100M with a well known sponsor. Thank you in advance!
