Depends on what the purpose of the fund is. Trunk Yeti seems to be thinking of a large institution raising money. And in that case he's correct.

But if you are a smaller player who is hyper-focused on a single asset class in a single region, it can make sense to go smaller. Buying mid-size MF in Tennessee? $75mm can make sense, because you're not going to compete with big national players to write a $3-5mm checks. Someone running a $750mm fund can't afford to be writing a check that small.
