Best way to promote new deal to find jr/sr. partners

[Devin Peterson]

Hi,

What would be the best way to promote a new possible deal to investors if I am strictly trying to raise capital. All of the the preliminary underwriting and deal checking is complete. Is there a way to approach this (mostly asking from a legal perspective) other than asking people if they’d be interested in a portion of equity in the deal for their up front capital to get the deal moving. Someone told me I can’t promote a deal with without proper SEC filing. Ideas? Suggestions?

The topic you're digging into is syndication. If you're selling a security (which it sounds like you are) you need to either register the security or qualify for an exemption to registration.

If you want to publicly market for equity investors then your most likely option is to use Reg D Rule 506(c) exemption to registration of the securities.
