Capital Funding Proposals - When There Is No Room For Errors...

Most capital funding proposals fall flat on their face and are DOA before the underwriter ever even bothers to look at the funding proposal. The rejection rate for capital funding proposals easily exceeds 90% in today's capital markets. It's not that these plans aren't presented in full-color detail so as to catch the eye of the reader and engage them; far from it. Most plans are now being submitted electronically, so full-color detail isn't as big an issue as it was even five years ago, but underwriters expect to see a professional document without any errors in the document whatsoever. Their job is to kill your deal.

That's where Rainmaker comes into play because you will want us to create your funding proposal because we are so good at preparing these plans. When it comes to capital funding proposals (click here for a peek at a sample report) the key issues that seem to percolate to the top are:

Summary Page. The summary page is really important because it provides the reader with the opportunity to quickly determine whether or not the proposal may in fact conform to the investor's underwriting requirements.

Presentation Order. The document should flow from one matter to the next in a building block fashion - the same way the due diligence presentation is created.

Elements. The document has to have the "four corners of the deal" as it were that include the following:

	The program economics have to make financial sense. All required sources of capital funding have to be identified.
	The project team has to have a demonstrable track record of success for development management, construction management, operations management, professional services (legal, accounting, audit, investment banking, etc.).
	The due diligence documentation is complete and the conclusions clearly documented.
	The plan has to have an exit strategy that works for the investor and all the other participants. The exit strategy is based on the findings of your due diligence documents.

When Should You Be Talking To Rainmaker?

If you will be seeking construction financing from a third-party lender (or investor) with whom you do not already enjoy a previous underwriting relationship, then you need to be talking to Rainmaker. If you have insufficient equity or assets necessary to sustain a construction mortgage financing for a new construction project, then you need to be talking to Rainmaker about the alternatives. If you have doubts, Rainmaker is the firm to turn to when it's time to deal with them.
