Description: Les Gestions du Parc is a company specializing in rental management of lakeside and / or forested vacation homes. We offer second home (cottage) owners the opportunity to maximize the potential of their investments. Based on basic time share principals, Les Gestions du Parc rents these properties when the owners are not using them. The company handles advertising, governement accreditations, rentals, and cleaning services for the owners. Once a rental cycle is completed the rental fees minus the company's percentage are deposited into the owners account. Les Gestions du Parc offers renters a personalized experience, with all the services of an inn, in the privacy of their own cottage. Cottages can be rented alone or with package deals which can include meals, bar services, Spa Services with a professional Osteopath, tour guides, hydroplane tours, bear and moose sighting excursions etc. Les Gestions du Parc also offers services to local population such as cleaning services, snow removal, yard maintenance, security services to name a few. In the near futur, the company aims to purchase it’s own rental properties to maximize profit margins. With the help of an investor, Les Gestions du Parc could purchase properties sooner, therefore increase profits sooner to continue purchasing properties and growing our staff and available services as well as expanding our local services territory. Les Gestions du Parc is a vacation home management company located in St Mathieu du Parc, QC, at the entrance of the Mauricie National Parc. We are looking for all available options to raise $250k to $500k in small business funding in order to fuel the growth of our Vacation rental business. At this point, Les Gestions du Parc currently has annual gross sales in the region of $50k or less, based solely on our maintenance services. With the acquisition of equipment and property , predicted gross sales would range in the $150k and over. I have included some additional information below relating to the purpose of the funds and the type of funding that I think would be the best fit. Les Gestions du Parc is primarily interested in receiving capital from: -Equity Funding (Venture Capital, Angel, Private Equity, etc.) We would like to use the funds that are raised for the purposes below: -Commercial Mortgage To buy our own cottages to maximize profits. -Equipment Financing Renewing older equipment. Buying new equipment to offer more services. Buying a larger vehicle to carry equipment. Furniture, essentials, sheets, towels etc, for cottages. Vaction home rental popularity has soared due to our current economy. It is in fact easier and cheaper on the budget and the planning to rent a cottage for a week shared by two families. When renting a vacation home from Les Gestions du Parc, clients are not only getting a cottage but an entire vacation package. A cottage with all amenities available for rent can bring in an annual rental revenu of $75,000.00 on basic rental and $120,000.00 with package deals. Each cottage acquisition would create employement for 1 to 3 people. Our objective is to decrease rental by owners who are not accredited by the governement, and increase environmental awareness at the same time.
