The best, safest private investments available!

Our forty years of experience in the world of investing leads

us to view private-equity investing in a little different way than
most people. Most people view “Private Equity” as buying or
providing growth capital to an already existing company.
This is only a small sliver of the private equity market.
This view does not mesh with our real world experience in
the general marketplace. The real opportunity lies in
funding niche markets and companies that are filling needs.

In our experience, it takes some equity to execute on any

investment. When the investment is a privately held, we call
this Private Equity, regardless of size.

To buy any piece of real estate you need some equity. To

start a company, you need equity. To build anything, you
need equity. To drill a well, you must have equity. To lend
money, you need equity. To grow a company, you need
equity. We consider all these activities as Private Equity
investments and focus our resources on the most profitable.

Our particular bent is to research and find opportunities for

cash flow and growth where we can fill niche needs and offer
superior and more secure returns than the public markets,
generating wealth by creating and/or growing companies. As
you will see, we have found substantial success using this
approach.

Using the above as a definition, the task my teams have

been training for over the past 40 years is to research,
uncover, analyze and implement the best, low risk private
investments available.

This publication is designed for potential partners to get to

know who we are and how we think. To be comfortable with
us, you need to know about our education and experiences,
as well as the reasons why you should participate.

We are opportunistic, hard asset, cash-flow investors,

syndicators and sponsors who work in niche markets where
we have experience in execution. We sponsor and
syndicate all our programs in compliance with the securities
laws and regulations or the United States, generally using
the sponsor exemption or the new Reg 506(c) exemption
from registration under the federal and state rules.
