Tony,

Have you consider a source to fund your entire project:  We can if there is a fit here.  Please see below what we offer.  We have a 30 year track record.  40% of our portfolio of funds go toward Ag related projects including alternative/renewable energy, farms ranches and mining projects.  We understand and fund in the space because of our ability to put insurance on these assets and mitigate our risk.  See below:

International Investment banking group providing 100% funding either debt or equity or combination worldwide! We fund based on the project strength not LTV or LTC.   We are interested in the Energy, Technology, Mining, Real Estate and Business sectors. 30 year proven track record!  


We offer terms that are bank rate or better. No front fees. Principals must cover third party cost prior to closing. Our market is domestic and international. Replies private or contact me directly. We will need an executive summary with proforma or actual income statement for 3-5 years, use of funds statement and exit strategy showing timeline for repayment along with bio/resume of Principal and their team.

 

We provide funding for the borrower’s capital request in the form of debt, equity or a combination and allow all documented expense and fees paid by the borrower to be stacked on top of the funds requested.  We can offer a moratorium on payments until the project is stabilized and cash flowing if the timeline to stabilization is reasonable.
