Commercial Real Estate Investors - Michigan...

For Michigan real estate investors, the advent of the Rainmaker Syndication Program could not come at a better time, as most Michigan real estate investors are facing tough times across the state, with the economy far away from lassiere-faire.  Rainmaker is seeking to acquire and syndicate projects and programs inside and outside of Michigan, bringing more real estate ownership opportunities and more project development programs.  Programs that are based upon an orderly market operating with complete transparency.  The Rainmaker program focuses on the following:

	Focus on properties and opportunities that project strong earning opportunities for near-term, mid-term and long-term holding strategies based upon some multiple of the S&P 500; and
	Creating new syndicate opportunities in Michigan for the benefit of Rainmaker's global investor program; and
	Providing developer/sponsors of projects to be located in Michigan with market-based project financing solutions that: Have the potential to fund 100% of the project's development budget (hard, soft, finance & carrying costs); and Create additional profit-taking opportunities for the benefit of the developer/sponsor and the syndication buyers; and Have the potential to eliminate bankruptcy risk and foreclosure risk for the benefit of syndicate investors and the developer/sponsor; and Can be applied to almost any commercial real estate development project having a total development budget that is greater than $2,500,000 (USD).
	Creating new syndicates for development transactions that have some universal traits, in that: Every fractional unit sold is sold for $25,000 and $23,000 is netted to the developer/sponsor entity; and Every initial syndication marketing window is for 90 days; and If Rainmaker's syndicate accounts for 100 fractional units ($2,500,000 gross - $2,300,000 net) then the developer/sponsor is obligated to close and accept the funding.  If not, the developer/sponsor can walk away; and If the syndication program is successful, Rainmaker will continue making sales in the form of a post-construction financing.  Each fractional unit sold will be utilized to reduce the outstanding balance owed on the proposed project's construction loan.  This means it is possible to have the construction loan paid-off at the beginning of actual operations.
	Rainmaker offers syndicate participants a level of secondary market liquidity that can be used to resell their fractional units in an orderly market through the Rainmaker portal.  Now investors can decide when they want to redeem their purchase and they can do so with or without the developer/sponsor's blessing.  Rainmaker provides this level of secondary market liquidity through its syndication engine.
	Rainmaker conducts a due diligence review of each transaction before the syndication listing is approved.  The issues Rainmaker reviews include specific aspects of the proposed project that is the basis of the financing: Environmental status. Market feasibility. Financial feasibility. Business Plan/Operating Capacity. Potential Conflicts-of-Interest. Development Plat status. Site Plan status. Architectural Schematic Phase documents. Contracts (architectural design services, engineering design services (including structural and MEP), construction services, development management, property management and entitlements). Development Plan.

Rainmaker doesn't guarantee or warrantee any project.  We rely upon our 15 years of experience in commercial real estate development, finance and due diligence to sift through the projects and eliminate those that, in our opinion, represent undue risk exposure and/or are incomplete and not ready for listing.  Rainmaker supplies the market with one more set of eyes and an analysis of the prospective transaction in terms of market issues.
