Obviously. I'm well aware of how these things are financed.

And, the Independent had contracts on almost 90% of its units within a few months of opening their sales office. So, that was not the cause of any delay in starting.

An additional variable to funding is the overall economy - post-pandemic. What is it going to look like under new governmental control? Plus, there is a correction still looming. Furthermore, nobody knows how long it will take for the office & leisure markets to bounce back.
