3. Transformational Rules
PeerRealty
• Crowdfunding is the practice of raising money through
contributions from many individuals, instead of just a few
• Crowdfunding allows individuals to invest in a project in exchange
for equity — a fundraising technique legalized in the USA by the
passing of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act in
2012
• In amendment of the Securities and Exchange Acts, the JOBS Act
allows for citizens around the country—and around the world—to
invest in businesses and products over the internet, as long as the
goods and services are offered in accordance with regulations set
by the SEC
4. • Regulation D
– 506(b) Most common, no public solicitation
– 506(c) Public solicitation
• Title III
– “Crowdfunding”
• Regulation A+
– Mini-IPO
• Regulation S
– International Investors

8. • Presently, 3.7 million investors have at least $100,000 in securities and
over 8 million people are qualified to invest under Title II; when the
details of Title III are finalized, roughly 230 million new individuals will be
eligible to invest.
• Regulation S allows foreign investors to take part in US private
securities transactions
• According to Forbes, the entrance of just 25,000 new investors to the
market will result in a $300 million dollar bump in invested funds.
• It is further expected that amendments made to Title III of the JOBS Act
will transform the U.S real estate investing industry into a $300 billion
market.

14. Portals either earn a flat fee or roughly 2% on all amounts raised.
• This is generally rolled into closing costs
Some portals will earn a 1%-2% asset management fee on invested dollars while
others will not take any role in investor management
• This is generally charged to the investor directly
Finally, portals who take an active role will then share a small portion of the
promote
• Those portals provide value through our compliance, investor relations and
legal services, specifically by freeing the sponsor from any liability and the
burden of raising money
• The economics should not change much due to the cheaper cost of capital
demanded by the crowdfunded investor base
