on our part is to control risk by exhaustively researching each deal, paying all cash,
and selling quickly.

significant change in you life, and if your funds are currently tied up in a
transaction, you must wait until that particular deal is complete. You will receive
your full principle back along with the Preferred Return. You will not receive the
Upside Participation return.

A: Email updates are sent to the investor during every step of the transaction (e.g.
property acquisition, start of renovation, etc.)
