Locating Private money lenders and equity partners for apartment project?

Need $300,000 thousand in soft cash to fund tax credit apartment
project in Houston, TX. Would prefer a private money lender however I
will consider an equity partner.

Any advice on what direction I should go to find private lenders or equity partners?

Thanks
