Description: The HBW Group, LLC is a Real Estate Investment startup business located in San Diego, CA. HBW is in search of between $500k - $1 million in startup business funding to grow its Real Estate Investment business. Since 2005, most real estate markets in the US have dropped substantially. In particular, the house prices in Southern California have dropped by 50-70% from their peak. There are now very good deals available and more coming on stream everyday as banks get rid of their REOs (Real Estate Owned bank foreclosures) at bargain prices. Regular Sellers are more flexible these days too. At the moment, the action in San Diego County is in ‘fix and flip’. This is where a house, having gone through the Foreclosure Process, is bought from the bank by investors like us, repaired, upgraded and sold back into the retail market. We only buy properties that offer a minimum spread of $100K-$150K, and the average turnaround time from acquisition to resale is less than 90 days. For example, we can buy a good 3 bedroom/2 bathroom house in a nice solid neighborhood for between $150K-$180K and resell it for $270K-$330K after $30K-$40K in rehabbing. We have access to a lot of these very good "fix and flip" opportunities in San Diego County on a daily basis and we need capital to take advantage of this highly profitable trend. The HBW Group, LLC plans to use any raised funds for the acquisition and rehabbing of these 'fix and flip' opportunities. With that in mind, The HBW Group, LLC is most interested in receiving capital from these types of collateral based funding sources: • Equity Lending • Alternative or Loan Funding Lenders will be provided with comprehensive information packages including detailed financials on each property to be acquired, rehabbed and resold, backed by the security of the equity in the property. The HBW Group Partners, husband and wife team of Clifford and Annemarie Saunders, have been providing management consulting services to Fortune 500 companies for 20+ years, primarily in the areas of Strategic Planning, Cost Reduction/Improvement and Change Management ((URL removed)). We are no strangers to the business of running a successful business. We have purchased, rehabbed and resold properties at huge profits and are no strangers to the business of generating attractive gains on real estate investments either. The recent moratorium on foreclosures is drawing to an end and the banks are preparing to release hundreds of thousands of foreclosed homes for purchase over the next few weeks. With the right funding in place, there will be record gains to be made in the acquisition and reselling of these properties. We are well positioned to take advantage of this massive windfall, and we hope that you will join us in reaping the benefits of these unusual and unique times in the real estate market.
