If you need to raise money for your business, then this episode will be a great start to help you understand which direction you need to head in, so that you can stay legal, stay out of prison, and get the money you need. “I think it’s really important that we allow mom and pop investors, to invest in new entrepreneurial endeavors so that they’re not just available for the venture capital angel investors. But there has to be proper disclosure to those investors. Those investors have to be treated properly within the law”.

And there’s no guarantee I’m going to be able to get you out of trouble”. Jill Sidoti. Listen Today For, What is ‘Regulation A’? “Regulation A is one of the new crowdfunding laws that allow companies to raise up to $50 million, and raise money from anybody”. Why you want to go after people in your current network before you go out anywhere else. “The money we know is that is way better than money the money we don’t know”. Jill Sidoni. The difference between Regulation A and Regulation D, and how that affects you if you’re trying to raise money from private investors. Why a company might work under Regulation A when it costs more money and takes more time. “Normally, if somebody comes to me and says, Hey, I want to do a Regulation A offering, then I kind of put them through the wringer first to see if they a critical mass in some way, shape or form. Or do you have something so novel that you marketing the opportunity it’s definitely going get your money through the door.” • Why you need the Marketing element and the legal element to raise money. “If you have the legal element, that’s great, but it doesn’t do any good if you don’t have the marketing element. And if you have the marketing element but you don’t have the legal element. I mean, you risk going to prison”. Jill Sidoti Plus, • Resources for you to learn more.

David Chesnosky, our guest today, runs a leasing business and is a leader in the San Fransisco leasing space. In today's episode, we learn from David what it takes to run a leasing business in such a competitive market and all the services that his company provides.---Our gracious sponsor: Gene Trowbridge and Jillian Sidoti, founding partners of the top syndication law firm Trowbridge Sidoti, have a legal team with over 88 years of combined legal experience.

Firms that provide passive investment services have to wear many different hats, doing everything from due diligence to asset management and syndication. Each of these processes themselves can be broken down into further distributions of tasks, and our guest on the show today joins us to share some insights into what a few of those look like. Danny Randazzo has been on the show several times before, but his rise to success over a few short years means he has fresh experience to share each time he joins us. Danny is a real estate investor, national speaker, author of The Boy Who Lost His Wallet, and a partner at passiveinvesting.com. After making his first million at age 29, he now controls over $225,000,000 in real estate. Today Danny talks about how he splits the roles between him and his partners at passiveinvesting.com.---Our gracious sponsor: Gene Trowbridge and Jillian Sidoti, founding partners of the top syndication law firm Trowbridge Sidoti, have a legal team with over 88 years of combined legal experience.

The path to success looks different for everyone. While some are meandering, others are more direct. But the common thread among all of them is that there is a guiding framework because success doesn't happen overnight. Strategically planning each step to get to an ultimate goal is the key to success. Our guest today, M.C. Laubscher, has taken lessons from hundreds of successful people to create his ‘Business of Multiplying Capital' framework. In this episode, we learn about the four pillars of the framework.----Our gracious sponsor: Gene Trowbridge and Jillian Sidoti, founding partners of the top syndication law firm Trowbridge Sidoti, have a legal team with over 88 years of combined legal experience.

When looking for the next deal, many investors tend to overlook mobile homes, but this doesn't change the fact that there is certainly money to be made from them as an asset class. With over 18 years of experience in mobile homes and parks, our guest on today's episode can certainly attest to that. John Fedro stumbled upon mobile homes when he invested in a four-bedroom unit inside of a preexisting park. Over the next eleven months, he added ten more mobile homes to his cash flow and portfolio. ----Our gracious sponsor: Gene Trowbridge and Jillian Sidoti, founding partners of the top syndication law firm Trowbridge Sidoti, have a legal team with over 88 years of combined legal experience.

Deals don't always go smoothly. That's just the reality of the syndication game. But it's not all that often that we get operators talking about deals that go awry. While these difficult deals can put operators in vulnerable positions, they also serve as excellent lessons for future endeavors. Our guest today, Feras Moussa, who was recently on Episode 446 as well, joins us to share how he handled his own nightmare deal.----Our gracious sponsor: Gene Trowbridge and Jillian Sidoti, founding partners of the top syndication law firm Trowbridge Sidoti, have a legal team with over 88 years of combined legal experience.

Today on the show we are joined by Feras Moussa from Disrupt Equity to talk about his experiences in real estate and the lessons he has learned about syndication. We discuss deals of different sizes and why the price is not always the determining factor of a deal. Feras breaks down the work that goes into an acquisition and the whole process from start to finish.

On this special episode, we are so excited to celebrate our 100th episode of the Real Estate InvestHER Show! Andresa and Liz are thrilled to sit down with two newer investors – Amina Sanders and Kristin DiPasquo from Philadelphia, PA. On today's episode, we discuss with these newer investors – their investing journey, their learned lessons along the way, and how the Real Estate InvestHER Community has helped them take action and build their investment portfolio – one property at a time. Amina Sanders is originally from Long Island, New York and moved to the South Jersey area six years ago after graduating undergrad. For the past six years, she has worked in the biotech/pharmaceutical industry as an analytical scientist. She stumbled onto real estate investing in 2016 after working on a family research project by finding BiggerPockets and then the Real Estate InvestHER Community (both the Facebook community and the Philadelphia InvestHER Meetup). She spent the next two years educating herself about real estate investing and she found that the best way for her to get started was through house-hacking. She quickly realized that investing in real estate was her chance to gain financial control and stability over her own life. In 2018, after a roller coaster of emotions her and her husband bought their first home: a 3b/2b Single-Family home in Philadelphia. They rented out two bedrooms and lived in the master. This past August, they acquired their husband's childhood home which is a single-family home rental in Atlanta, GA. Currently, they are under contract for what will be our third property, a duplex conversion. Kristin DiPasquo had a winding path in her adult life, starting out professionally as a software engineer, taking off several years in her 20's to explore different parts of the world, landing in Philly as an elementary school teacher and occasional yoga teacher and then truly landing in my mid 30s as a realtor and now investor. She loves working as a realtor, helping people in a very concrete way and being her own business person. Thanks to many things, including her supportive family and the InvestHER community, she has been able to take the leap into Real Estate Investing. Aside from owning our home, which she was fortunate to purchase in a time when our neighborhood was ripe for appreciation, they have one rental property that they acquired in the summertime, which she has rehabbed, rented, and will refinance soon and now has their 2nd investment property under contract. She plans to grow her portfolio significantly over the next few years using the BRRRR strategy! Aside from Real Estate, some things she loves include: her family (especially her 5 year old daughter and 2.5 year old son!), spending time in the outdoors, connecting with community, dancing and bike riding.

Raising Money Like A Rock Star with Jillian Sidoti

This week I interview Private Money Rockstar Jillian Sidoti who is one of the country's leading experts on Regulation A+. (Regulation A is an exemption from registration for public offerings.) She is also the author of the highly rated book, The Crowdfunding Myth which debunks the multiple myths surrounding crowdfunding and teaches the reader how to effectively crowdfund their securities offering Jillian also spends her time speaking at seminars educating real estate investors on how to legally raise capital for their real estate investment projects. You can reach out to Jillian at PrivateMoneyRockstar.com or CrowdFundingLawyers.net This episode is PACKED with solid gold chunks on how to legally raise money without getting yourself in hot water with State and Federal Regulators.  The reason I asked her to join me was due to a Facebook post she made regarding advertising on Facebook to raise private capital. Lots of investors tend to feel that SEC regulations don’t apply to them, this is for various reasons but often these people are the victims of bad information.  As we all know, on social media, everyone has an opinion it seems.  Sometimes those opinions lead others unknowingly astray from the law.  Below is her post: “Today the SEC came out with this as part of their complaint against a defendant selling private securities: "Respondents did not have pre-existing, substantive relationships with a number of the Fund’s investors and engaged in a general solicitation of public interest in the offering through Fund's website and traditional media interviews." It continues to be unlawful to solicit for investors outside an applicable exemption such as one under Rule 506(c). This means solicitation on FB, FB pages, your website, Linked In, other social media, or standing up in the front of the room at your local REIA and asking "does anyone want to invest?" Ask yourself: "do I really have a pre-existing, substantive relationship with all of my FB friends or all of those in that FB group I just posted to?" Such a relationship is "intimate knowledge of one's financial ability to invest." You can achieve this through an investor qualification form and that is the safest way to achieve such a relationship. I see this type of offense all the time and people always have an excuse as to why the rules don't apply to them...until they do apply to them. By the way, the defendant above raised a total of $567,000 - not millions of dollars. So if you don't think the SEC will care about "little ol' you" you couldn't be more wrong. You are what is referred to as "low hanging fruit." Jillian doesn’t pull any punches here in this post, in fact, during the episode, she mentions that these government agencies are on a mission to collect fines.  In fact, they even go so far as to pay people who bring forth complaints that wind up uncovering illegal activity.  I see people begging for money on Facebook every day, don’t be surprised if these people wind up going to jail or being heavily fined.  Be sure to bring a notepad when listening to this episode because you a guaranteed to learn a ton.

Back in 2012, the JOBS Act was passed. What we have seen happen is that more people are now advertising for investors because there’s a couple of different rules that allow you to advertise for investors. One of those rules is 506c which allows you to raise money from accredited investors only. You can do general solicitation, but you have to verify that those investors that are coming in your deals are indeed accredited. On this episode, Scott talks with attorney Jillian Sidoti about some common crowdfunding mistakes and ways to legally raise private capital. Love the show? Subscribe, rate, review, and share!

Legal fees can cost you some money. But it costs even more if you wait to get a lawyer until you are in trouble, maybe because you don’t know about real estate processes and paperwork. Today, my guest is Jillian Sidoti, a syndication lawyer. A syndication is when people are brought together to own an asset, such as a property, that’s brought forth by a sponsor, which provides property disclosures. Previously, Jillian was in the music industry and barely getting by. She got sick and tired of being poor, so she went back to law school. But even she couldn’t stand lawyers. So, she got into the real estate industry thanks to her finance degree. While trying to find investors, she met her partner to create Crowdfunding Lawyers.  Topics on Today’s Episode: What is a syndication and why do you need one? Need to disclose everything - all pertinent information to save yourself from heartache and being sued When you make money, you will have more than one syndication - and lawyers love to follow the money Hire a securities or syndication lawyer to properly prepare documentation What happens if you do not close on a property? Will lawyer amend documents? 506(b) and 506(c) offerings to raise capital Investor qualification form and verification for accreditation No one is going to steal your ideas, instead you are building trust; always be a student and a teacher Get into the habit of vetting investors as much as they vet you Be responsible for your investors and their money, but don’t put them on a pedestal Where to raise money and capital - go to galas! Be cognisant - don’t talk too much or be creepy; be genuinely interested in people Do not pay more money than you need to pay to your investors Links and Resources Mentioned: Gene Trowbridge Crowdfunding Lawyers Jillian’s email Jillian’s phone number is 323-799-1342 Quotes: “Legal fees can sometimes cost you some money, but it costs you more to call me later when you’re getting into trouble.” - Jillian Sidoti “A syndication is bringing a group of people together to own an asset that’s brought forth by a sponsor.” - Jillian Sidoti “Every time I give one of my investors the packet...this is going to be a document.
