If you are working at an institutional shop, you likely work at a firm with a decent amount of employees so responsibilities are distributed among different experience levels and specializations. The biggest difference in being a direct sponsor is that everything will fall on you. Also, the financing terms/opportunities will be completely different. That being said, the hardest part for most people moving out on their own is raising capital and it sounds like you have that somewhat lined up so I'd encourage you to make the leap. Once you become a principal its hard to look back at being a monkey.

That being said, you mention your experience as an acquisitions/development analyst in which case I would caution you that tends to exclude project management/rehab, leasing, or asset management.

Also check your employment contract, it could very well prohibit exactly what you are thinking about doing.
