Project Opinion
Overall, the As des As project at Raizers seems promising. It offers a high return and has a track record of successful crowdfunded projects. The location of the property in Pessac is advantageous, as it is in a residential area and close to amenities. The acquisition and selling prices are competitive compared to the local market. However, there are some weaknesses and warnings to consider, such as the high loan to acquisition ratio, the difficult evaluation of the senior coliving space selling price, and the lack of market study data. It is important to carefully assess these factors before making an investment decision.
