This week I'm going to share with you two critically important clauses that you should be using in all of your purchase agreements. It’s very common that if you’re using a standard commercial contract from a broker that neither one of these clauses will be included and they absolutely should be. Below are the actual clauses so that you can easily cut/paste them and add them to your next contract.

Clause #1:

The PURCHASER'S Due Diligence time frame will be for a period of 60 days and will commence when PURCHASER receives all requested Due Diligence from seller as outlined on the Due Diligence request form.  After all documents and materials have been delivered to PURCHASER, PURCHASER may cancel this Agreement for any reason, at the sole discretion of PURCHASER, within sixty (60) days  after receiving all documents and materials from SELLER.  In the event that PURCHASER elects to cancel this Agreement during the initial 60 day inspection period this paragraph shall serve as authority to the Escrow Agent from the SELLER to act upon the “single order” of PURCHASER to distribute the Earnest money to PURCHASER.  Additionally, this paragraph shall serve as the SELLER’S release of the Escrow Agent from liability for disbursing the Earnest money to PURCHASER,

Clause #2:

PURCHASER to have a period of 30 days following above Due Diligence period to secure financing at terms acceptable to PURCHASER.  PURCHASER may cancel this Agreement during this Thirty (30) day period in the event that PURCHASER does not obtain a loan approval for the purchase of the Real Estate and Personal Property that is satisfactory to PURCHASER.  An automatic extension of 30 days shall be granted to PURCHASER for loan approval and funding provided LENDER provides a letter showing the loan approval and funding process is moving forward and additional time is needed to finalize the loan and funding process.

Our guest for this week’s show is Real Estate redevelopment expert, Jay Several. Jay has a very interesting story because his real estate investment career started off as more of a hobby which he dabbled in in his spare time while running his software consulting company.

The exciting part about Jay’s journey is that not only did he start investing full-time just a short 10 years ago, but he started just before the biggest real estate crash in history was about to happen. And if that wasn’t already challenging enough, the projects that he was acquiring weren’t simple deals like stabilized apartment buildings or fully leased NNN shopping center deals. No, he started off by redeveloping vacant buildings and repurposing them for entirely different uses. This, my friends, is not a business for the faint of heart or for the beginner investor. Listen in to hear how Jay makes the magic happen

 In this show with Jay you’re going to learn:

• How jay got involved in Real Estate after selling his software consulting firm
• Why he decided to take the path of redeveloping infill properties instead of purchasing already occupied and cash flowing investments.
• How he was able to profit $1 million on his first deal and how he’s been able to duplicate this success over and over again.
• What qualities he looks for when determining whether or not a property makes for a good redevelopment opportunity.
• Why he never gives exclusive listings to commercial brokers.
• The process he takes to proactively seek out tenants to fill his centers before he’s even finished with the project.
• Why he feels that everything you own should be for sale….at the right price.
• The reasons he prefers the retail sector due to its ease of management.
• The $250,000 mistake he made and how he overcame it and became a smarter investor because of it.
• Why he feels that persistence is one of the most important qualities needed in becoming a successful real estate investor.
• And much more

Dan Miller is Co-Founder and President of Fundrise, the first and leading real estate crowdfunding platform. The first company to successfully crowdfund real estate, Fundrise brings world-class real estate investments to institutional, high net worth and retail investors throughout the United States.

Founded in 2010 by Dan and his brother Ben Miller, Fundrise has brought real estate crowdfunding to the mainstream, allowing anyone—accredited and unaccredited—to invest in property for as little as $100 per share, and as much as $10 million, and earn favorable returns (historically 12 to 14 percent). 

At Fundrise, Dan is responsible for exploring and opening up new markets and vetting real estate projects. Dan also speaks across the country as one of the leading authorities on real estate crowdfunding.

• What crowdfunding is and how it’s changing the real estate investment landscape as we currently know it by making investments available to the mainstream public.
• How the JOBS act has changed the securities and investment laws that hadn’t been changed since the early 1930’s and what these mean for smaller investors.
• The benefits that Fundrise provides both accredited and non-accredited investors who have an interest in participating in premium grade investments.
• The step by step process that Fundrise goes through to vet their property offerings.
• What separates Fundrise from all of the other crowdfunding sites out in the marketplace.
• Why Fundrise funds all of their own projects with their own money prior to making these properties available to members of their website.
• What advice Dan would give to someone who was attempting to raise capital for the first time.
• What signs Dan looks for when trying to identify emerging real estate markets and why he refers to it as an art form, but one that can be learned.
• What he would have changed if he could go back in time knowing what he knows now.
• And much more
