Definitions:
Passive investor: Exactly what it sounds like -- you are in a passive, not active, role for a deal.
You pick an active operating team who's job is to source the deal, close the deal, and run the business plan to generate the cashflow returns for limited partners/passive investors.
A passive investor is one of the best positions to be in as an investor.
Syndication: A function of pooling resources to cover the needed equity to execute on a business plan for the given project the bank does not cover.
The bank will typically cover between 60-80% of the costs to both, acquire the asset and to cover capital expenditure.
4 Steps to receive cash flow from real estate syndications:
1. Pick the operating team you trust
2. Fund the deal
3. Monitor the deal through the monthly updates
4. Collect your cashflow
* Review your private placement memorandum (PPM) which will have when distributions can be expected. Always remember that nothing is guaranteed in any investment.
The SEC has defined guidelines to identity whether an investor is accredited or sophisticated. The intention is to protect the investor from predatory practices.
Depending on which exemption the operator is using for the private placement will determine if you have to be accredited or not. 506c offering will require you to be accredited. 506b offering, the operator can take up to 35 "sophisticated"/non-accredited investors if a pre-existing relationship exist.
Accredited Investor: Someone who has made 200K (300K filing jointly) for the past two years with the expectation that will continue to be the case for the remaining calendar year. You can also qualify if your or your joint net worth is 1 million NOT including your primary residence.
*Atlas is not an attorney. Any information shared does not constitute legal advice. Please consult your attorney with any questions surround this topic or the PPM documents.
The deal is NOT the most important thing to consider before investing, contrary to popular belief.
Here at Atlas we believe that you should consider in this order:
1. The People - The people make or break the implementation of the business plan and its success.
2. The Processes - Do the people have processes in place to sustain and scale? Or are they constantly putting out fires.
3. The Deal - Lastly, the deal, IS IT ACTUALLY a DEAL? Are their assumptions that are not set in reality.
*All underwriting is subject to calculated assumptions. This is unavoidable. Data Points, Risk Mitigation, and defensible assumptions are all critical but the order of People, Process and Deal matters most.
