The easy way to diversify into commercial real estate with safe fixed returns!

In 2009 the great recession was in full bear, banks were closing weekly, and financing shriveled up. Looking for places to put our money, we saw the opportunity to fill the gap that the banks had left behind. My brother launched a private money fund called Copper River Funding (www.copperriverfunding.com) bringing liquidity to the commercial real estate space. The model was revolutionary, allowing investors to hold their money and preview each deal so they had total control of what they invested. A process we called “simple deed investing” We procured the deals, underwrote them and handled all the due diligence and posted them on our back end portal for our investors to preview. They could then choose how much they want to invest in each deal and would have a first lien secured by commercial real estate capital. Average returns over the last 12 years have been above 11%.

Private money investing is a FANTASTIC diversification when the overall market gets crushed and banks start cratering. Being involved with us gives you a fantastic hedge against disruption in stocks and bonds and the economy in general. But a new opportunity exists to make money EVEN WHILE TIMES ARE GOOD…into this opportunity we are launching our new private fund. This fund will still be secured by commercial real estate but the lending criteria will be focused on people of good character and cash flow rather than collateral. Our original fund is collateral driven and a low LTV is a nice hedge, but we believe that character and cash flow, not collateral is what pays the loan. The huge backlog at banks still reeling from all the PPP loans creates an opportunity to close loans quickly to quality borrowers.
