Wording alone is not enough to overcome the economic realities test of SEC v. W.J. Howey Co., 328 U.S. 293 (1946).  Members of the organization must have substantial participation in the operations of the organization, mere voting rights are nowhere near enough (even if you didn't know the case law, think about it logically, most equity stakes traded on the major exchanges have voting rights and are still securities).  What concerns me about all these investments I see on here are that so many of the issuers are misleading investors into thinking their offerings are compliant when they're not.  That means either the issuer is ignorant, which is a concern that investors are putting their money with incompetent people, or the issuer is malevolent, which is concerning for obvious fraud reasons. 

I don't know about everyone else here, but I'd feel much more comfortable with an issuer that came out and said "look, law essentially prevents me from raising money from you, so this issuance is probably not going to be compliant with the law.  Caveat emptor and all that.  I think most people here are pretty libertarian, we agree the laws and regulations are draconian, so why try to pretend your compliant?  Don't spit on our cake and call it frosting, be up front and let us be adults and make our own informed decision.

I addressed your concerns if you have any "business" related questions I would be happy to address them, but as for now I just see you as trolling and will not respond.

Try re-reading your original post.

Or maybe you'd just like to say that it wasn't really you who dropped in a mention of REITs because you were only quoting somebody else mentioning REITs -- and that doesn't count? 

You had the opportunity for some constructive engagement here, you had the opportunity to identify some gaping chasms of confusion in your offering, you had the the opportunity to achieve at least a marginal improvement in how your plans are being articulated. As I said, I'm done here; good luck to you.

(Oh, and you do get that REIT = Real Estate Investment Trust, right?)

It was addressed at you DrGregMulhauser smart guy. It is very very apparent you only read the FAQ and only the FAQ.

Sir no where is there any word of REIT's in any of post or plans the first word of REIT was brought up by you in this post


Excellent question.


So your using a example of how passive investors invest in real estate as your reason from bring up a REIT? Lest not take it out of context like you have

Thank you, for your remarks but most of them could have been answered if you would have read.

In mathematics, we use the phrase "proof by reference to converging irrelevancies"...


I can assure you, I won't be wasting any more of my time on my apparently pointless attempt at offering feedback on a few of the outright howlers from your "offering". Kthxbye.


Excellent question.


I didn't bring up REITs -- the OP brought up REITs, as if they were in any way relevant.


Congratulations! If that's the level of detail and coherence you expect from someone asking for your money, then you are exactly the sort of "investor" the OP needs.

It might be easier to assume that someone whose standards are a little different from your own simply doesn't know how to read, but that doesn't make it so.

What part about a member managed LLC do you not understand? Think this explained it in the business plan

Start up capital of $75,000 is needed, this will be in the form of crowd-funded virtual currency stocks , with the eventual offering of HML1 loans if full amount can not be raised. The purpose of the loans will be to gain capital with out diluting stocks. 

Does it matter if its 75k @ 10 stocks or at 10,000,000?

I am starting to get the feeling you did not read the business plan....

Obviously you're not forming a genuine REIT; that's why it's hand waving to talk about REITs. The question has nothing to do with "most real estate terms"; it has to do with whether you are prepared to offer something other than hand waving.


You're failing the sniff test pretty badly here. You've not yet explained even 1% of how you might possibly think about maybe one day potentially if the moon is in the right phase organise the capital structure, let alone 100% of how you will actually do it. Generally speaking, not knowing how you're going to structure a business until after you've entered into business commitments is not a good sign.


I cannot tell you what would be "acceptable", but I can tell you that failing to provide a cogent offering document, failing to elucidate the basics of capital structure, and failing to offer even a vague outline of how a business will operate is not a recipe for inspiring confidence in the people you're asking to support your project.

REIT would have to be registered with the SEC, so that is a no go. If you get any sort of pooled funds in a real estate transaction it must be registered as a security with the SEC.
There are a couple of exceptions
1) The entire loan must come from 1 person with out the pooling of funds
2) The company must be formed as a LLC as a tenants in common aka members manage LLC

The wording has to be in such a way to not trigger a SEC registration. Most real estate terms are written in such a way it seams to be hand waving.
This is the address to a property, I understand it, most people will not its not fancy hand waving its legal description written to locate a property.

The capital structure has not been 100% decided yet due to us not having nailed down a home.
I do not think 18 pages of business plan would be acceptable here?

Few people have much positive to say about MPOE-PR, but you're missing point, which is that if you have any actual business plan, put it here and make it part of the public record, don't just link to some random document on Dropbox.

While you're at it, you might consider addressing a whole boatload of questions around the topic of why you're looking to raise equity financing as opposed to debt financing, despite indicating that the latter via a "hard money" lender is next on your agenda. (Or maybe you're looking to offer this as securitised debt? It's hard to tell based on what you've actually written so far.) As far as I can tell, apart from some irrelevant hand waving in the direction of REITs, you have yet to spell out anything at all about capital structure.

The fact that you just criticized the posting format is a great! Thanks!

Just had a lead from a "We pay cash for homes close in 7 days ad"

This property would take 10k Max to get up to selling conditions. The property is in default status and vacant, the estimated pay off on the property is 58,000. ARV of the property is 115,000.

See here. As for that "business plan", it'd be much more valuable to post it here (no, a dropbox link doesn't suffice) in lieu of the atrocious marketing speak you've put up in its place.

Crypto REI maintains a full array of well-trained professionals who continually strive to provide top quality service for their individual clients and customers. Crypto REI is a creative, innovative and people-oriented organization providing individual opportunity, personal satisfaction and rewarding challenges to all members and investors of the firm.

Why?
A funny thing happens in real estate. When it comes back, it comes back up like gangbusters.
"Barbara Corcoran"
            About 77 percent of investors with at least $1 million in assets own real estate, according to a survey released today by the New York-based investment bank’s wealth-management unit. Direct ownership of residential and commercial properties was the No. 1 alternative-investment pick for 2014, with a third of millionaires surveyed saying they plan to buy this year. Twenty-three percent said they expect to invest in real estate investment trusts, the second-most popular choice. (We are not a REIT) This is was used as a example
            Most of us do not have enough money to go and buy a property for cash, but with our knowledge and funds we could all be on our way.
What?
            Residental SFH defined by H.U.D as between 1 and 4 units. Focusing on distressed properties in high turn over area's. These properties would be located in neighborhood away from large roads, close to schools, with a decent image. We would ideally like to buy at 60% ARV with a negotiation range of +-5%.
When
            As soon as we secure funding we will start our first project, if enough funds are not raised we will use a Hard Money Lender to cover the rest. We already have a one lined up.

F.A.Q.
Q. Will shares be BTC Based or Fiat Based.
A. Shares will be based on fiat due to the extended amount of time it will be tied up. We will not be dealing in rentals to start with, all dividends will be paid per sale of fix and flip. If we fix and flip 13 houses a year you get 13 dividends that year. We aim to profit min 10-50k on each fix and flip.

Q. Is this really a good time to be investing in real estate?
A. YES!! As a matter of fact, this is probably the greatest buyers market any of us will ever see in our life times. During a economic downturn, smart money is buying, dumb money is on the sidelines. Even though the recession is over, many people are holding on to fears and misconceptions about investment real estate. This is a HUGE mistake. Many people will secure their financial future during this limited buying opportunity, the question is will you be one of them.

Q. Why do you buy foreclosure properties?
A. In real estate, rule number 1 is "You make your money when you buy" That means we need to buy below market value. Foreclosures are not only available in abundance, but they are bad loans on the books of the banks and need to be sold. More often than not, these sales are at pennies on the dollar.

Q. This sounds like a good way to get rich quick. Is it?
A. Rich is a relative term. For some people $100,000 a year would be life changing. For others it would be a drop in the bucket. However, this is not a "get rich quick" I personally am not aware of anything that is. Investment real estate is and always has been a "get rich slow" investment. That being said, properties that are bought and sold with profits of $10,000- $40,000 will certainly make an impact on anyone's bottom line.

Q. I have no experience at this. Am I qualified?
A. The reason so many people lost money during the real estate crash was due to exactly that reason. Many people jumping in the game with little to no experience. Bad idea. What we have done is taken the need for experience out of the equation. We will do the entire transaction for you. No guessing on your part. You agree to the deal, and we drop a completed, rented property in your lap. The only real qualifications that you will need is the willingness to make money.
