Breaking Down the Nuances of the Fund of Funds Model - E745 - CFC Nov 01, 2023

Show notes

When I have a legal question about fund regulations, there is one person I have on speed dial…

Mauricio Rauld is an expert attorney with over 24 years of experience practicing law and studying the details of real estate syndication.

That’s why, today, I’ve brought Mauricio on the show to explain the trending strategy of the fund of fund model and the nuances of structuring a deal like this to raise capital for real estate.

People have been trying to get around the #1 rule that you cannot raise capital for other people unless you are a broker-dealer…

But if you are a co-GP, you don't have to get a broker-dealer license because you have an issuer exemption…

Which brings us to the fund of funds model that allows you to create a fund and raise money then invest it in other people’s deals.

The catch to raising capital with this model is that, when you invest in someone else’s deal, you are now investing in securities rather than real estate.

This opens you up to scrutiny from the SEC and whether you are now considered an investment advisor to your clients.

You have to check your specific state regulations and apply for an issuer exemption in hopes that your assets under management and qualified clients fit the standard.

There are many stipulations to follow, which is why having a good relationship with your attorney is crucial.

And if you are thinking that becoming a broker-dealer seems easier at this point, just remember that almost all of them aren't at the institutional level and familiar with the nuances of securities.

So, tune in today to learn how you can implement the fund of funds model in your company and avoid the pitfalls of working with securities to raise capital!

Take control,

Hunter Thompson

The Key to Uncovering What Your Clients Really Want - E743 - MM Oct 30, 2023

Show notes

As a capital raiser, you probably LOVE the investment niche that you're in.

However, in order to truly scale, you've got to remember one critical thing...

Your investors are NOT you.

They are LP investors, not real estate nerds.

The reason they are considering investing with you is because they have a PROBLEM that you might be able to solve.

Unfortunately, most capital raisers don't listen to the problems that their investors are having...

...and instead jump right into pitching their niche, strategy, market, and thesis.

The key to scaling to raising $1M - $10M per deal is understanding what PROBLEMS your dream clients are facing, and then showing them how you can help them solve their problems...

Curious about amping up your capital raising game? Well, don't miss our latest episode. It's gonna be a game-changer, trust me!

Exposing The Myth Of Perfectionists - E742 - FF Oct 27, 2023

Show notes

Welcome to another revealing Freedom Friday on the Cash Flow Connections podcast!

Today, I'm setting the record straight about perfectionism in entrepreneurship. Many believe perfectionists produce superior work, but the truth is quite the opposite.

I'll illustrate this with a simple example: creating an ebook. The perfectionist may take six months crafting the "perfect" ebook, isolated from market feedback. Meanwhile, the action taker completes one in a month, benefiting from real-time feedback and iterations. Fast forward six months, and whose work is better? The action taker's, of course. Real-world market feedback trumps self-imposed perfection.

So, if you've been stuck in perfectionism, it's time to shift your approach and prioritize action over perfection. Don't miss this eye-opening episode!

Show notes

As many of you know, I run RaiseMasters, the #1 mastermind for elite capital raisers…

And the idea of this company actually came from writing my book Raising Capital for Real Estate.

The logical next step after writing about how to raise capital was to teach people how to implement the steps themselves…

From launching the company in January of 2021, the business has exponentially exceeded my expectations with over 400 members and $10 million to date.

Today, I talk with RaiseMaster member Brandon Cobb about how I’ve scaled RaiseMasters into an 8-figure company that helps its members achieve their capital raising goals without sacrificing the customer experience.

If you see an opportunity that you like, brings you fulfillment and generates revenue, you should go for it and that’s what I did…

I saw this opportunity to become one of the #1 capital raising coach and I took it.

Every move my team and I make is fully focused on the customer journey.

Our thought process is about how we can add value to our customers on top of the information we provide, which makes our members inclined to show up and put in the work.

And the way we generate our revenue is simple, from a 2-page website to clear coaching to system automations, because simple scales.

So, tune in today to discover how RaiseMasters became a success and cultivates a community of ambitious entrepreneurs crushing their capital raising goals!

The Problem That Will Get Bigger As You Grow - E739 - MM Oct 23, 2023

Show notes

When you reach new levels of success, you'll start to hit hurdles, roadblocks, and issues you previously would have been unprepared for.

One of the challenges I have found only gets WORSE as you grow is the challenges with opportunity cost and distraction.

Your calendar is empty; all you want to do is fill it up.

...all of a sudden, everyone wants your time.

And what's more challenging is that once you develop skills, your time is valuable...

This year, I'm confident I made a decision that will likely cost me $1M in revenue over the next four years...

...but it may have saved me $5M in lost revenue.

So, tune in today to discover how to surpass your limitations and cultivate your mindset toward productive thinking!

Show notes

Welcome back to another straight-talking Freedom Friday episode on the Cash Flow Connections podcast!

Today, I've got some real talk about "rescue capital." Let's cut through the hype and dive into the math and logic behind this concept. The reality is, when you're buying in a competitive market with high loan-to-value ratios and prices have corrected significantly, rescue capital may not be the lifeline it's cracked up to be. The numbers just don't add up.

Join me as I break down why this might not be the savior some claim it to be and explore the real opportunities that lie ahead. Don't miss out on a refreshingly honest discussion this Friday!
