Access To Private Money Is Like A Private Money Dating Service

September 3rd, 2010

Welcome back!

When you go to an on-line dating service you’re looking for a date. When you come to Access To Private Money you’re looking to have a meeting with a potential private money investor. That’s the Access. They are no so far apart.

Private Money Investor Meeting And A Date

The meeting with a private money investor isn’t so much different from a date. At the meeting you hope to develop a relationship so that you can get your project funded. With a date, well the expectation is that it will develop into so much more also.

To Pay Or Not To Pay

With Access To Private Money you pay a meeting hosting fee to have that meeting with the private money investor. With some of the on-line dating services you also pay a fee to get information about your date so you can have your date. It’s your choice. You can choose to use a service that charges no fees or one that does not.

All Meetings Don’t Produce Funding
And All Dates Don’t Work Out Well Either

When you attend a private money investor meeting there is no guarantee that the meeting will go well, and that you will get the funding that you’re seeking. The same happens with dating. You don’t always go any farther than just that first date. In both cases you take your chances.

How Many Meetings Will It Take?

In dating you don’t usually score on the first date. You also don’t get the funding you’re seeking with the first meeting. Things don’t go right. You’re nervous and can’t relate that well with the investor. The investor doesn’t sense a level of trust that the investor is comfortable with. So you can expect to strike out at first. You have to get your feet wet.

The Funding Investor Meeting

So when will you find an investor who will fund your project? That all depends upon you, your project, and the investors you meet with. But the JV Network Company is willing to make a performance guarantee when you have 5 private money investor meetings.

The Performance Guarantee

Access To Private Money doesn’t guarantee any funding. However, the JV Network Company guarantees the following:

“In the event that a client attends a minimum of 5 investor meetings and does not yield an acceptance or counter-offer to fund a minimum of 50% of the funding request or $50,000,000.00, whichever is smaller, then the JV Network Company will refund 90% of any meeting fees paid.”

One Out Of Five Confidence Level In The Meeting Process

So if you are willing to have 5 investor meetings with the investors in the JV Network Company’s investor network, the chances are really good that you’ll get an offer to fund your project. The other part is whether the offer is one that you can live with, and that is up to you.

If you think that you’re project is solid enough to meet the challenge of 5 investor meetings, and you’re willing to risk not getting any funding, then our program may be the one that could get your project finally funded. Don’t forget that the investors you meet with are interested investors, not just any investor.

If you want more information about the funding process go to AccessToPrivateMoney and sign up for the full description of how the process works and what you’ll need to submit to qualify.

Private Money Investor Sentiment Has Changed

March 23rd, 2010

Private Money Investors in the JV Network Company network have become more cautious in their willingness to invest since the global economic crisis. Although they are still interested in placing their private money into good projects, they are taking more time to do their due diligence.

Private Money Funding At 100% Is Rare

The norm before the economic crisis was that a private investor would be willing to fund the entire project. That’s 100% funding. Now the private money investors are only willing to fund at 95% to 98%. Some private money investor may still fund a project at the 100% level, but that is rare in this economic climate.

Private Investors Use Business Trusts To Fund Projects

The other big change in the way many of the private money investors are making their offers to fund projects is that they are using a business trust type of arrangement as a means to provide funds.

Private Investors Will Provide Private Money For 95% To 98% Of Project Needs

What this means is that the request for funds will only be funded at 95% to 98% of the amount requested, and that the remaining 2% to 5% needed will have to be acquired from some other source prior to the investor giving any funds. In addition, the 2% to 5% must be in cash and placed into an escrow account before proceeding to get any funding documents prepared.

The Current Economic Climate Requires 2% To 5% Cash To Get
Big Money Funding

So in this economic climate you now need to have 2% to 5% of the funds necessary to make your project work already available prior to gaining any big money for funding a project from a private money investor in the JV Network Company’s investor network.

If this type of arrangement is something that you can live with, then the private money available through Access to Private Money may be able to get you to funding you want.

Private Money Lenders And Meeting Fees

November 2nd, 2009

It seems like we have at least one question a week asking about the requirement for meeting fees when meeting with a private money investor. The person making the inquiry says something like this, “I can’t pay the meeting fees, so could you have them waived?” Then there’s the question like, “I’m not paying for a meeting fee until I know the investor will fund the project, so couldn’t the meeting fee be rolled into the fee due when the project funds?”

No Waiver Of Meeting Fees

Access To private Money can’t waive what we don’t have. The meeting hosting fees are a requirement of the JV Network Company we do business with for the private investors. Since we don’t have the right to waive the fees, we are not in a position to grant a waiver.

We Can’t Give What We Don’t Have

Access To private Money can’t give away what we don’t have. We are also not in a position to subsidize client’s meeting fees. Since no one at Access To Private Money is present at the investor – client meeting, we can’t control what goes on there. As stated in Private Investors and Private Money Meeting Fees the meeting fee goes to the JV Network Company, and Access To Private Money can’t risk what we can’t control.

So if you are thinking that maybe you are the client with a project so good that there has to be an exception for your project to be submitted, consider what you’re asking. Access To Private Money can’t give up what it didn’t have to begin with.

The Rules Of The Game

We all live by rules, and sometimes we don’t like some of the rules. But if you want to play the game of finding a private investor using the network of private investors assembled by the JV Network Company you have to play by their rules.

You have two options, play by the rules and submit your project for consideration, or find another game, another source for private investors. It’s really that simple.

If you choose to use Access To private Money to find private money investors we will be happy to submit your project for you. To get more details about the submission process you can request private money funding information and receive the PDF file Joint Venture Funding Guidelines and Procedures.

Private Money in Private-Equity Group

July 30th, 2009

Private money is still out there. There’s a group, First American Financial Management Co., in Charlotte looking for small banks. They recently bought Community Bank of Rowan last week for about $16 million.

So, if you have the right kind business opportunity you can find private investors interested in funding your business.

Tony Plath, banking and finance professor at UNC Charlotte, said that private investors usually wait until the banks hit bottom before they invest. Right now private-equity groups are beginning to get into the banking community, and that’s an indication that the recession is reaching the bottom.

For more information see Charlotte private-equity groups on the hunt for small banks.

If you think that private money could help your business, then Access to Private Money may be able to get you to funding you want.

Private Money, Exotic Cars And Cash For Clunkers

July 26th, 2009

Private Money always finds a place to go. Private Investors look for places of high return to place their money, and they also look for highly appreciating assets. Investors are wondering how the “Cash for Clunkers” incentive program will affect the value of their vintage cars. Actually, if many people turn in their old cars, then vintage cars will become more valuable.

If you’re interested in vintage cars, check out the current news article in the Examiner “Exotic Cars 101: How will ‘Cash for Clunkers’ affect or apply to vintage exotic cars?” which talks about how President Obama’s new “Cash for Clunkers” will affect the vintage or exotic car market. It’s notable that the “Cash for Clunkers” program only talks about “old cars” and “gas guzzlers” rather than vintage, antique, racing, performance, luxury, limited edition, exotic, classic, collectible, or sports cars.

So there still may be a business in restoring vintage cars and attracting private money.

If you’re looking for private investors consider what Access To Private Money can do for you.

Private Money Investor – One Size Doesn’t Fit All

October 28th, 2008

Remember the rage of the tube socks where the advertising was “one size fits all.” I recently checked online, and you can still get tube socks that say “One size fits all.” So I guess they are not all out of style.

One Size Fits Most

When it come to socks, the “one size fits all” size seemed to fit most people. But for the really small and the really large, they didn’t fit very well at all.

Private Investors Are Not All One Size

But when it comes to Private Investors and Private Money Lenders, one size doesn’t fit all. It seems simple enough. People are different. They all have different likes and dislikes, ideas and notions of what is reasonable under each circumstance.

But visitors to AccessToPrivateMoney.com keep asking:

“What Do ‘The Investors’ Want For ROI?”

The simple answer is “it all depends.” Each investor has an idea of what he or she would like to make with his/her money. The investor looks at the available projects and decides which seem to be likely candidates to give that type of return. If a project piques the investor’s interest, then the Private Money Investor will want to evaluate it to determine whether the investor can get the return he or she wants.

So… How Is The Private Investor Return Calculated?

Since each Private Investor makes his or her own choice about the return that he/she wants, there is no standard calculation for the ROI. However, every investor wants to be able to share in the profits of the project. That’s why they are investing in the first place.
They are not making loans with a set interest rate. So, they expect to get a percentage of the profits. How much an individual investor wants is up to that investor. But it falls in the range of 20% to 50% of the profits.

Will The Private Money Investor Get Their ROI?

Each project is evaluated by the investor to determine what percent of the profits will give the investor the overall return they want. And it can vary project by project because of the time and risk factor of the investment. Then, if the project would be able to generate the return the investor is seeking, the investor calculates the percentage of the profits that would give that return.

Why is 50% The Upper Limit?

Although it is not a hard and fast rule, the private investor doesn’t want to take too much out of the business. The investor doesn’t want to cripple the business by taking too much out. Also the investor doesn’t want to take so much out that the business owners have no incentive to make the business succeed. It’s a fine line to determine what’s fair and what will give the investment results the investor is seeking.

Every Investor Is Different

Back to the “one size fits all” answer that visitors to AccessToPrivateMoney.com want. Since there is no standard Private Money Investor, there is no standard ROI that an investor wants. The only way to find out what an individual investor wants is to submit your project into the private investor database and see who shows up as interested investors. Then at the investor meeting, that particular investor will say what that investor wants for a return. That’s the ROI for the project with that investor.

The FAQs http://accesstoprivatemoney.com/faqs.htm#f5 have been updated to give a short answer to this complex situation.

How Is The Money Crisis Affecting Private Investors?

October 14th, 2008

Although not all private investors use the banking system to obtain their funds to invest, many do use it.

Take the situation where the private investor has a corporation with a business line of credit. The corporation exercises the business line to get money to invest. Then the private investor uses those funds to make private investments.

In that case the private investor is essentially doing what the banks have been doing. The private investor is making money on the spread of the interest rate they got on the credit line and the amount they charge to the client seeking private money.

So what happens when those credit lines are diminished or cut out entirely?

The private money dries up just like the money in the banks. So the private sector is also affected by the banking crisis and the credit crunch.

Although I don’t’ know for certain how the investors in the investor network get their money to make investments. It’s reasonable to assume that at least some of them are using their corporate holdings to get the cash to invest. This means that their money supply is also smaller.

So the private sector does follow the banking industry to some extent when the banks fail or refuse to make new loans or lines of credit.

There’s a recent post on The Money Code Blog which talks about how the governments are getting into the banking business and what effect that may have on the future of the whole money system. The post, “When The Government Gets Into The Banking Business” is worth reading for the insights about what this means for the future of credit and lending.

It may even change the future of private money investors.

Private Money Funding – Private Investors Are Pulling Out

July 29th, 2008

Today the world of finance is in turmoil over not enough money for current projects. Consider the recent article posted on MSNBC, Credit crisis halting commercial construction Investors pull out of $5 billion project to build tallest building in Vegas.

In this article the Clise family in Seattle had to stop their project.

Clise Properties Inc. halted discussions with potential partners in April after it became clear that most investors wouldn’t find reasonable financing to develop the site with the company during a global credit crunch. Interested investors had to put up more than $600 million just to compete for the opportunity.

Again another large project failed in Las Vegas.

Last month, Australian gambling firm Crown Ltd. backed out of a $5 billion project to build Las Vegas’ tallest tower because of financing issues. The company held a 38 percent stake in the joint venture with Texas developer Christopher Milam and private-equity firm York Capital Management and will have to write off about $42 million related to the investment.

Boom Areas Turn Into Bust

In addition, the boom areas of a few years back are turning out to be busts.

Commercial real estate projects in Denver, Phoenix, New York and even Donnelly, Idaho, have run into similar snags, while developers in housing-bust markets like Florida and Southern California have axed smaller projects.

You Are Not Alone

So if you think you’re having a hard time getting the financing you’re looking for you are not alone. The world of both public and private money is playing it very cautious these days. They are taking a lot longer to evaluate any project, and they are really looking closely at the business plans and the areas to be developed.

What does this mean for your current projects?

Any project you are proposing for private money funding needs to really be air tight. Make sure all your i’s are dotted and t’s are crossed. Cover all the marketing plans with extensive research to show there will be a profit. Have a white paper ready to explain how you’ll address any negative issues in your plan. Show that the principals in your plan really have the expertise and past experience to pull off the project. And make sure your projected figures are conservative.

There still is money available for good projects that have the proper back up in documentation. But the era of the “No Doc Loan” is gone. Be prepared with full documentation and you still may be able to get the funding you’re seeking.

In terms of sources for funding our JV Funding Investor Network only requires a minimum of an executive summary and business plan to determine whether any investor is interested. But after that point, you’ll need good documentation when you meet with an investor.

So if you’re still looking for funding, AccessToPrivateMoney can provide the opportunity to meet with an interested investor who may actually fund your project.

Private Money Investing Criteria – An Idea Is Not A Business Plan

July 7th, 2008

When you have a great idea and you’re looking for a Private Money Investor or Private Money Lender, you need to do some work first before presenting it to the investor. Investors want to see Business Plans and not ideas. Ideas are a dime a dozen and not worth much more.

Create A Business Plan

If you want to be taken seriously as someone who knows what they’re doing, you have to have a business plan. You have to put the work in first before approaching any investor.

Think of it this way. If you were the investor, wouldn’t you want to know exactly how someone wanted to use your money and how you would be paid back. You’d want to know what the risks are in the investment. The Private Money Lender is no different. They need to know as much as possible before they’ll commit to any investment.

Access To Private Money deals with an investor network of multi-million dollar investors. They will not consider any project without a good executive summary and business plan. So we cannot accept any project that doesn’t have that spelled out.

We Need The Plan And Not The Idea

So the next time you have an idea of how to make money, (that’s the basic purpose of all businesses) consider developing a complete business plan prior to seeking funding. Your chances of success will be thousands of times greater.

If you’re new at developing a business plan check out Entrepreneur.com for what needs to be in a business plan. They give a good guideline as a place to start. In addition, there are many services that will develop a plan for you for a fee.

So when you send us information about your new business proposal, send a business plan and not an idea.

Private Money Investor Funding – Do You Meet The Criteria?

July 5th, 2008

Over and Over and Over again I get questions about meeting fees and needing millions fast for some special reason to fund a project. The reality is that NO Private Money Investor or Private Money Lender will give you millions of dollars FAST. They’d be crazy to do so. And NO project is accepted without paying a meeting hosting fee.

Not all projects are accepted for submission. You need to meet certain criteria in order for your project to be accepted for consideration. See blog post for Private Money JV Funding For A Few Good Clients. Do You Qualify? for the kinds of projects we are looking for.

So Here’s The Deal

If you CAN’T or WON’T pay any meeting hosting fees – BUZZZZZZ Game Over!
Your project WILL NOT be placed before any investors in the Private Money Investor Network.

If your project needs to be funded in less than 60 days, there’s no way this investor network would be able to fund your project.
It just takes longer for everyone to check things out.

If your project is in one of the NO Funding areas of the world, NO investor in the Private Money JV Investor Network will fund your project.
It doesn’t matter whether other investors are funding there, it’s a great place to live, and you believe your project is the best in the world. It just isn’t going to happen.

The Basic Private Money Funding Requirements

You MUST pay meeting hosting fees – NO exception

Your project does not have to be funded immediately

Your project is NOT in a NO Funding Location

So if your project fits into any one of these categories, we’ll consider it. Otherwise don’t bother to send it in. You’re only wasting your time and it will not be accepted for Private Money JV Funding.

If this sounds harsh to you, please don’t take it personally. I want you to know the hard facts about what is required so that you can decide if this is the right option for you.

The reality is that there are hundreds of Private Money JV Investors looking for projects, and there is money available. But the JV Network Company we work with has certain requirements. If you can meet these requirements, you may get the JV Funding you’re looking for.

If you can meet these requirements, I am eager to help you get the money you’re looking for.
