How It Works

Find a deal. Get paid.

01

Find a developer

Someone with entitled land, a shovel-ready workforce housing project, and no clear path to financing. They're everywhere—stuck, waiting for banks to start lending again.

02

Introduce them to us

Send an email. Make a connection. That's the whole job. We take it from there—diligence, structuring, capital partner matching.

03

We close the deal

We bring pension fund capital through a forward purchase agreement. Developer gets funded. Building gets built. Project 18618 moves forward.

04

You get paid forever

1% of the NOI, paid from our cut. The building produces income for 50+ years. So do you.

Who Can Do This

Anyone. Literally anyone.

You don't need a real estate license. You don't need experience. You just need to know one person with a stuck project.

How to Find Developers

Our founder found Deal #1—a 376-unit workforce housing project in Las Vegas—through LinkedIn cold outreach alone. No warm introductions. No industry connections. No real estate background. Just a laptop and persistence.

That deal is how Project 18618 got its name.

"Elliott reached out cold on LinkedIn. We'd never met. No mutual connections. Now we're building 376 units together."

Shaun M. Principal, Mojave Group

If he can do it, you can do it. Here's exactly how.

01

Know What You're Looking For

You're looking for workforce housing developers with entitled but unfinanced land. That's it. That's the whole target.

The Criteria:
  • Workforce housing — apartments for teachers, nurses, service workers (not luxury)
  • 100+ units — big enough to matter
  • Entitled land — zoning approved, ready to build
  • No financing locked — they have the land, but can't get the construction loan

These developers are everywhere. Banks pulled back from construction lending in 2022-2023. Thousands of projects are stuck. They're not hiding—they're waiting.

02

Find Their Contact Info

We recommend Seamless.ai for finding contact information. It's what we use internally.

Seamless.ai

Search for "multifamily developer," "workforce housing," or "apartment developer" + your target city. Pull their email and LinkedIn profile.

Other options: Apollo.io, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, or just Google "[developer name] + email".

03

Reach Out on LinkedIn First

Start with LinkedIn. It's warmer than cold email and has higher response rates.

Sample LinkedIn Message:

"Hi [Name], I work with a group that connects workforce housing developers with pension fund capital through forward purchase agreements. If you have any entitled projects that need financing, I'd love to make an introduction. No cost to you—happy to chat if it's relevant."

Keep it short. Keep it human. You're offering help, not selling.

04

Follow Up by Email

If no response on LinkedIn within 3-5 days, follow up via email.

Sample Email:

Subject: Workforce housing financing—quick question

Hi [Name],

I reached out on LinkedIn but wanted to follow up here. I work with Spot Origin—we connect workforce housing developers with pension capital through forward purchase agreements. 85% LTC, no fees to the developer.

If you have any entitled projects that need construction financing, I'd be happy to make an introduction. Takes 5 minutes to see if there's a fit.

Worth a conversation?

05

Follow Up At Least Twice

Most deals happen on the second or third follow-up. People are busy. Your first message gets buried.

Day 1: LinkedIn message
Day 5: Email follow-up
Day 12: Second email (short: "Just bumping this up—any interest?")
Day 20: Final follow-up or LinkedIn nudge

Be persistent, not annoying. Two or three follow-ups is professional. Ten is spam.

06

Make the Introduction

When a developer is interested, introduce them to us. That's it. We take it from there.

Email [email protected] with:

  • Developer's name and company
  • Project basics (location, unit count if known)
  • Their contact info
  • Any context from your conversation

We'll handle diligence, structuring, and capital matching. If we close the deal, you get 1% of the NOI. Forever.

Pro Tips
💡

Search local business journals for "multifamily development" or "apartment construction." Developers announce projects that later get stuck.

💡

Check city planning records for approved but unbuilt projects. Public information, goldmine of leads.

💡

Talk to general contractors. They bid jobs that never break ground. They know who's stuck.

💡

Target Sun Belt cities: Phoenix, Las Vegas, Austin, Nashville, Tampa. High growth, lots of stalled projects.

For Developers

How much do you need?

If you're a developer with entitled workforce housing—100+ units, GMP in hand, shovel-ready—we bring pension capital to the table. Forward purchase agreements that unlock 85% LTC construction financing.

No more chasing equity. No more begging banks. We bring the take-out commitment. You build.

The Mission

This isn't a marketing slogan.
It's a calculation.

There's a shortage of 7 million workforce housing units in the United States. Teachers, nurses, firefighters, service workers—they can't afford to live in the communities where they work.

At 376 units per building, it takes exactly 18,618 developments to close that gap.

We've signed Deal #1. 18,617 to go.

Every deal you find is one step closer. Every building funded is hundreds of families housed. The returns are real. So is the impact.
