The Founders and management of the Fund are keenly aware of the liquidity needs of the investors. The management will develop an annual liquidity plan to provide the long-term cash needs of investors. The Plan will address among other items the cash flow needs to fund the following:

  • Investor’s Tax Liability on the original gain deferral due December 31, 2026. Provide adequate liquidity to fund investors’ desire to liquidate their investment upon completion of the minimum 10 year holding period.
  • To provide the required liquidity and an exit for investors, the management anticipates utilizing the strategy of maintaining reasonable cash reserves, selling real estate assets held, recapitalization of business assets, as well as exploring the potential of taking the Fund public to generate requisite liquidity needs, and participating in the Entrextrading platform that allows investor to sell or trade their shares based on their investment strategies and needs.
  • Management will maintain direct relations with Investors to assist in their cash flow needs and liquidity requirements.

Returns

Based on our cash flow and investment projections we forecast a return of 15% IRR.

The Fund’s investments are formulated to generate returns through a combination of land sales and equity investments with a target per share price of $3.52 in year 10.

Fees:

  • The Fund’s management is committed to operate the Fund at the lowest possible fees and operating expenses of any Opportunity Fund. The priority of Management is to maximize Investor returns by minimizing the operating expenses of the Fund.
  • Our forecasts are based on total overall fund operating expenses, including management fees, at just 4% of Fund Value.
  • We see many Opportunity Funds charging its investors 3.5% –5% just for management fees.
  • We believe this conservative style of expense management will provide adequate resources to operate the Fund and manage all ofits investments and projects while maximizing its Investors’ returns.
