How to Form an Investor Pool?

Monty Corbett

Hi All,

I have a few investors looking to invest in a few potential properties. I need to pool their money together but I have a question.

Typically, do you provide a return on the investment while holding the funds, i.e. while waiting to see if a potential property pans out?

Thanks!

Monty

Will they be actively involved in the business and the real estate transactions? Or will they just be handing you their money and waiting for a return?

If they're not actively participating, there are lots of time-consuming and costly legal and accounting hoops you'll likely want/need to jump through to do this legally (pool money).

If they are actively participating in the business, there is no reason to provide a return while you're evaluating the properties, as nobody has made an investment yet, and presumably they're doing as much work as you are when it comes to deal evaluation.
