Development Firm: LIC Common.

Introduced Year: 1997

Major shareholders: 3

Project Location: The core area of Manhattan & Brooklyn

Project Type: private suites and condominium & Mixed-use and hotel building.

Number of projects: More than 100 projects, 100% project complete on rate.

This project is a well-known Chinese developer in New York, with more than 20 years of experience in the real estate industry, focusing on the development of advanced projects in the core areas of New York.In the past 20 years, more than 100 projects have been completed, and the project completion rate is 100%. I have a deep understanding of the local market of New York, a deep understanding of the local market demand, and a good reputation and reputation for development. With its excellent development concept, I have successfully occupied a place in the New York real estate market.
In the past, the developer's successful development record, rich experience in the development of private suite real estate, and good credit in commercial lending have won the favor of numerous real estate buyers by virtue of its strong strength.

1. Since the second quarter of 2018, the U.S. real estate market has been in adjusting period. The price growth rate fell from the pick at the end of 2017, and the sales prices moderately declined. Looking forward to the trends in the next 2 years, the real estate industry will face higher costs of borrowing due to incremental interest rates, and the overall market might turn back to a more rational position which is based on affordability and supply and demand. In such market trends, CrowdFunz will mainly focus on debt investment opportunities as the core of strategy, adopting conservative loan agreements to build partnerships with real estate developers, and reduce uncertainty from fluctuant market adjustment which may lower the profitability of CrowdFunz’s investors.

2. The mission of CrowdFunz is to offering fixed income products that have controllable value-at-risk, conforming to the demands of investors who would like to minimize their risk profiles. CrowdFunz also insists on selecting real estate projects with low loan-to-value ratio and high collateral as a part of core criteria of debt investment.

3. Compared to other regional real estate markets in the U.S., the market environment of New York city generally has relatively lower volatility and downward interval; the real estate market at New York city has strong local economic support and steady residential and commercial demands. By regional market familiarity and professional understanding of real estate development, CrowdFunz carefully selects those fundraising projects of which the underlying assets or development plans possess great business fundamentals and potentials.

4. As a result of our conservative strategy, CrowdFunz 805 project was successfully passed our risk filtering processes and due diligence. CrowdFunz securitized the borrowing to private equity investment opportunities and introduces it to all CrowdFunz’s clients and potential investors. We believe that the strong market fundamentals in Elmhurst real estate market, the developer’s reliable track of record, and dependable feasibility of the operational planning of the development may support the success of investment for investors who are looing for moderate risk-return trade-off.
