Do You Need Guaranteed Money?: Monster Corporations, Business Lines of Credit $50,000 to $14,500,000

Monster Corporation Update

Hector and I met in Rancho Cucamongca in February. We speak two or three times weekly at a minimum. If you have a 740 FICO score (if you don’t you’ll need to invest in credit restoration services), $38,000 to $75,000 for their services, and are at least 27 years old with a good business idea they’ll fund you $500,000 to $1,000,000 guaranteed!

Hector and Peter fund new corporations about 30% of the time. They have three sizes of funding available:

$500,000 $38,000 up front and 12% back end fee

$1,500,000 $75,000 up front and 12% back end fee

You can read more here:

http://workingcapitalfast.com/monster-corporations-500000-to-2000000

and here:

http://bit.ly/1IBF7q

I was surprised to learn that 70% of the time they fund existing corporations who, for whatever reason, strike out with local banks.

In my experience, funding is all about presentation.

Hector funded a manufacturer that had been in business for several years. The president of the company had visited three banks and was turned down by each bank.

They paid a fee to Hector and Peter. They cooperated with the process and within 60 business days were funded $4,450,000!

Isn’t that amazing? Here was a company that had been in business for many years. Their books were a mess. They hadn’t filed corporate income taxes in two years.

Hector and Peter put down their heads and rolled up their sleeves and got the company to do exactly what they were told to do. That’s what it takes to get funding: pay the fee for professional services, mutual cooperation, up-to-date books, current tax returns, and paying a back end fee.

What did it cost? $30,000 up front and about $534,000 back end. Was it worth it? They thought so.

The largest funding to date was in November 2008 for $14,500,000.That company used the money to more than double their work force from 55 to 125. Sales increased by more than double too and more importantly the value of the business increased from $22m to $52m.

Looking for a way to generate a badly needed cash injection?

If you have a minimum 700 FICO score on all three bureaus, have no more than a 30% debt to high credit limit or are willing to pay down debt, can wait 60 business days, are mutually cooperative, have a good executive summary, bio’s of key people, a detailed use of funds, a five-year pro-forma and powerful exit strategy with the funds to get started call me at 1-800-669-2700.

With your corporation: Funding from $100K – $10M based on qualifications ( some of you may have a very strong company with verifiable tax returns, hence larger funding amounts)
– Backend Success fee applies
– Personal Guarantee Required

– Experienced consultants to guide you through the process
– Proven track record

Here at http://bit.ly/WorkingCapitalFast we know from experience that Clients that come in to us with the Right Expectations and understanding about the service we provide end up achieving dramatically superior results than Clients that don’t.

Therefore, we have decided to explain the basics of Our Process so you know exactly how everything works and achieve the Best Possible Results that can be obtained for your particular situation and also with a sense of Satisfaction that you made the Right Decision in choosing workingcapitalfast.com.

So here is.

OUR PROPRIETARY PROCESS:

  1. You Apply Online or call us to start the Process.
  2. We send you our Client Package via e-mail for your review. This Package included the Professional Consulting Agreement you will need to sign that outlines the cost of our Service.
  3. We offer you a Free Initial Consultation to answer some of your basic questions and concerns about our Service.
  4. You fax back to us the completed and signed Client Package.
  5. We pull your Business and Personal Credit Reports and perform an Expert Review on your File to determine all issues (Submission Conditions) that may need to be resolved prior to submitting any Loan Applications.
  6. We work with you to resolve as many of these Submission Conditions as possible. The quantity and type of Submission Conditions that need to be resolved, together with your level of cooperation, will determine how fast your File will be ready to be submitted to Lenders for Approval and Funding.
  7. We put you in the BEST Possible Position to obtain the Financing you seek – Your File will be “As Good As It Gets”.
  8. We refer you to the Lenders that we know from Experience are most likely to Approve your Loan Applications and assist you in completing Application Forms and coordinating Lender Appointments and Site Visits if necessary.
  9. We assist you and advise you in resolving Approval Conditions if and when they come up so that your Approvals can turn into Successful Fundings and money in your Bank Account.
  10. YOU ACHIEVE THE BEST POSSIBLE RESULTS THAT CAN BE ACHIEVED GIVEN YOUR UNIQUE SITUATION.

OTHER IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS:

APPROVAL AMOUNTS & TIME FRAMES: Each Client is a unique challenge and requires a different strategy – Because of that, the Time Frame for receiving Approvals and the Approval Amounts will depend on various factors and cannot be pre-determined or guaranteed ahead of time. Having said that, we are currently experiencing Approvals within 1 to 3 Days from the the Date each Application is submitted to a Lender, and once each Application if Approved, our Clients are getting funded within 7 to 10 days in the majority of cases. No Doc financing (especially for Start-Up Businesses) may come in the form of personal installment loans in increments of$25K to $100K per lender (depending mainly on your geographical location) and several credit applications may be submitted in order to achieve your total requested financing amount and each credit application will result in a new inquiry on your personal credit report(s) because each lender will need to obtain your personal credit report(s) in order to underwrite your credit application – There is no way to avoid Inquiries, but we can assist you in removing most of them – Ask us how.

WARNING: Anyone or any other Company out there making promises or guarantees to you regarding Approval Amounts or Time Frames is deceiving you – Hold on to your Wallet! No one can promise you any particular Approval Amount or Time Frame until you are actually Approved and Funded – That’s the bottom line and anyone claiming otherwise is deceiving you or stretching the truth at the very least. Here at workingcapitalfast.com we don’t play that game – We tell you the Truth, whether you like it or not.

INTEREST RATES: The normal range of interest rates for No Doc loans and lines of credit is 7%to 14%, and for EZ Doc loans and lines of credit it is 6% to 12%, but the interest rate you receive may be higher or lower in some situations.
MINIMUM QUALIFICATION CRITERIA: We are ready and able to help every Client that needs our assistance, but if you have recent derogatory marks on your Credit Report, Bankruptcy, Foreclosure, or Repossession in the last 10 Years then it may be very difficult to obtain financing unless you bring in a Business Partner with a clean credit history. There are  also some Industries that are harder to finance than others because they are considered to be “High Risk” by Lenders, so if you are concerned that your Business may be in a High Risk Industry or that your credit rating is not strong enough, please ask us about it before you sign-up.

NO DOC: No Doc means that you do NOT need to provide any proof of Income or Assets and depending on market conditions and your geographical location, the financing may come mostly in the form of Unsecured Personal Installment Loans ranging from $25K to $100K each. The time you have been in business is NOT an issue either – Start-Ups are OK.

EZ DOC: EZ Doc means that your Personal and/or Business Tax Return Transcript(s) are obtained directly from the IRS using IRS Form 4506T to facilitate the process for you, but Lenders may still require you to provide full copies of your Tax Return(s) and/or additional documentation such as Bank Statements for the last 3 Months, Business License, etc.

How We Work

 

From the desk of Joe Tufo…

Thank you for visiting my website and signing up for my FREE newsletter…

Here’s a little background on me.

For the past 10 years I’ve been helping people just like you get funding for their businesses and their business ideas.

Over this time I’ve helped hundreds of entrepreneurs secure over $1.2 Billion for businesses of all kinds… from home based businesses, to Real Estate Investing, to business lines of credit to wireless internet technology… and everything in between.

I’ve participated in many business funding seminars from the International
Hard Money Conference, various Real Estate Investment Clubs, Various Webinars, Radio Shows, and am a member of The American Cash Flow Association.

It has taken a lot of time, effort, and some painful experiences to develop the winning formulas that help businesses get the funding they need… especially in today’s economy.

But I’m happy to say that because of what I’ve learned there isn’t a business or business idea out there that can’t find the capital it needs.

It’s pretty easy to do too…

I’ve broken it down into a simple 5 step process…

***Step 1: Determine exactly how much capital you need for your business.

***Step 2: Learn the different types of business capital available to you.

***Step 3: Determine what type of funding is the right fit for your business.

***Step 4: Find the best source of funding which matches your needs.

***Step 5: Put together a deal that makes sense for your business today and down the road.

And it doesn’t matter how much you need either… whether you need $50,000 or $5 Million or more the process is exactly the same and you can get it

 

Our websites are at http://www.workingcapitalfast.com which is about 600 pages (January ’10) and http://www.joetufo.com/blogour subscription site which has about three times the content. It also archives the newsletters.

 

If you have a Large Project that requires funding you may be interested in an 8-Week Course that we are producing:http://joetufo.com/blog/large-project-class

 

Week 1 – Course Overview – What Will You Learn?-What is Large Project Funding?

Week 2 – The Power of Your Executive Summary – The First Key to Successful Funding

Week 3 – The Power of Your Bio’s – The Second Key to Successful Funding

Week 4 – The Power of Your Detailed Use of Funds – The Third Key to Successful Funding

Week 5 – The Power of Your 5-Year Proforma and Exit Strategy – The Fourth Key to Successful Funding

Week 6 – Putting It All Together – Your Presentation and Proof of Funds

Week 7 – Current Funding Sources and Available Programs

Week 8 – Wrap-Up – What Do You Do Next?

t;LEFT”>Bonus Week– Q&A With Joe and Large Project Funding Sources

 

Our websites feature our Business Creed and a pre-qualification application. http://joetufo.com/blog/welcome-to-cash-flow-specialists-inc

http://workingcapitalfast.com/welcome-to-working-capital-fast-cash-flow-specialists-inc

We offer a one-time FREE 20-minute consultation to those who complete the questionnaire completely. This is a $333.34 value based on our hourly consulting fee. Of course, you may purchase additional time at p://www.joetufo.com/consulting”>http://www.joetufo.com/consulting

 

We work one of two ways:

Priority – If you want us to “Clear The Decks” put our heads down and get to work you’ll honor us by paying a fee for six months of service. You may renew after that time.

 

When you hire us to work on a priority basis we thoroughly study your submission package to make sure that it complies with our recommended Road Map to Funding Success. Funding has always been about presentation. Those who present well are funded. Those who don’t present well are not funded.

 

The key ingredients to funding success, in our experience, have been:

  1. A powerful Executive Summary of one to four pages. You can purchase our template and video review athttp://www.joetufo.com/roadmap
  2. Bio’s of key personnel.
  3. A detailed use of funds broken down monthly for the first year and quarterly thereafter.
  4. A 5-year proforma and written Exit Strategy.

 

When we meet face-to-face we’ll review the following questions:

• What do you expect from us?

• What is your current pain?

• What keeps you awake at night?

• How do you see us helping you address these challenges and opportunities?

• What growth plans do you have?

• If price were not an issue, what role would you want us to play in your business?

• Do you expect capital needs? New financing?

• Do you anticipate any mergers, purchases, divestitures, recapitalizations, or reorganizations in the near future?

• We know you are investing in total quality service, as are we. What are the service standards you would like for us to provide you?

• How important is our satisfaction guarantee to you?

• How important is rapid response? What do you consider rapid response?

• Why are you changing professionals? What did you not like about your former firm that you do not want us to repeat?*

• How did you enjoy working with your former firm?**

• Do you envision any other changes in your needs?

• Are you concerned about any of your asset, liability, or income statement accounts to which we should pay particularly close attention?

• If we were to attend certain of your internal management meetings as observers, would you be comfortable with that?

• How do you suggest we best learn about your business so we can relate your operations to the financial information and so we can be more proactive in helping you maximize your business success?

• May our associates tour your facilities?

• What trade journals do you read? What seminars and trade shows do you regularly attend? Would it be possible for us to attend these with you?

• What is your budget for this type of service?

* We never denigrate the predecessor. First, this insults you and reminds you of a poor decision. Second, it diminishes respect and confidence in the profession as a whole and lowers the public’s perception of our professionalism.

** Even though you are changing firms, it is almost certain that you liked certain characteristics of the predecessor. We want to find out what those were and exceed them. For instance, if you said the prior firm always returned phone calls within one day, we strive to return phone calls within four hours.

 

Non-Priority – If you think that you’ve “nailed it” when preparing the four key ingredients to funding success, and you aren’t in any hurry at all to fund and aren’t quite ready to pay consultation fees then we’ll take a look at your project when we can get to it. After we look at it we may need to send it back because you don’t meet our requirements. (Priority Clients get major help from us in cleaning up their submission.) We’ll return your calls and emails when we can: after all, priority clients come first.

 

We reserve the right to review each submission once, beyond that our consultation fee will be required. You had better complete the submission request correctly the first time or you better get familiar with our websites mentioned above. If you submit for free we can’t spend a lot of time. It’s not fair to us, our families, or our Priority Clients.

 

In our experience we can fund 1/3 of the files that cross our desks, 1/3 are DOA Dead on Arrival, and the final 1/3 are broken and need to go through some form of remediation which can take hours, days, weeks, months, or years.

 

We DO NOT GUARANTEE FUNDING. We work on a BEST EFFORTS BASIS.

 

With 33 years of Financial Services experience we may be uniquely qualified to serve you and those whom you choose to refer.

Why We Say NO! A Lot and Mean It

by JOE TUFO[EDIT]

Many times throughout each day we receive calls from folks like you: referrals, referral partners, past clients, current clients, prospective clients, or someone who Googled one of our websites.

Invariably, you tell us that your project or start-up is “the greatest thing since sliced bread,” is a “billion dollar idea,” We’d “be a fool if we didn’t drop everything and devote all our time for free to get you funded.”

To each of you who expect us to work for free we have this to say – NO! NO! NO! A thousand times NO!

WE’RE NOT IN THE FEE BUSINESS and WE’RE NOT IN THE WORK FOR FREE BUSINESS!

It’s not that we’re uninterested or impolite it’s just that we’ve heard it thousands of times. Here’s our thoughts:

  • Do we have the time?
  • Will we feel pressured to get it done?
  • Will we be upset with ourself?
  • Will we be resentful of the other person?
  • Will we feel duped, had, or swindled?
  • What do we have to give up to do this?
  • What can we gain (What’s in it for us?)

No is our first option instead of the propensity to say yes that emanates from wanting to please, wanting to be liked, needing to be needed, being timid, avoiding confrontation, not knowing our rights, or feeling: plain and simple, that we should.

We’re in the consulting and funding business. With 33 years (November 1976 to present) of financial services experience in insurance, securities, and finance we may be uniquely qualified to serve you and those whom you choose to refer.

We charge a fee because we do this full-time: 50 hours scheduled a week plus another 20+ working on the websites, writing articles and newsletters, recording audio and video, holding webinars and other tasks to help each  of you.

We take on committed paying clients and then focus all of our effort and energy in getting you funded.

Even at that we fail about half of the time.

In our 10+ years experience in this business about 1/3 of what crosses our desks we can fund (you may not like the rates, terms and conditions but we can fund you), 1/3 is DOA – Dead on Arrival – even with the thousands of pages of information we’ve published, dozens of books and courses we’ve published – let’s face it many of you can’t or won’t follow instructions, and the final 1/3rd is broken: your credit sucks, you have no business credit profile, you have more than three inquiries, you have derogatories, liens and judgments – you’re a mess and it will take days, weeks, months, or years to fix.

So it’s not that we want to say NO! It’s just that we have a way that we do business well and that works for us: pay us our fully earned, non-refundable commitment fee of $25,000 for each project of $2,500,000 or above (1% minimum $2,500 per project $25,000 maximum per project for six months of service). We’ll roll up our sleeves, put on our thinking cap and get to work.

We have REAL funding sources that fund viable projects. Your project can be next.

As always we are available M-F 7AM to 5PM Pacific to serve you and those whom you choose to refer.

 

My good friend, Leonard Rosen, is arguably “The Pit Bull” when it comes to Hard Money.

New International Strategic Funding Source

I received a call Monday April 19th from Heather the Director of a USA based firm that has access to hundreds of international funding sources. I have know Heather for just under one year.

I conferenced in a client in Aspen CO who is building two ultra-high end custom homes that will retail in the $35m to $40m range each.

Heather can fund these in about 60 days at 6% to 7% interest fixed amortized over 20 to 30 years with a seven-year call. The loans are non-recourse and are assumable; not a bad exit strategy for builders.

They can fund from $500,000 to $100,000,000. As always having a pleasing personality and great presentation are funding keys. Once approved they require $750,000 as a refundable deposit.

Please remember that we are fee and commission based and work on a Priority and Non-Priority basis.

We will look at ANY viable project for free. We will host one free 20-minute consultation. After that you’ll decide whether to retain us

Commercial Loan Modifications: Testimonials, from my friend Phil

The commercial workout process is a complicated and multifaceted endeavor requiring expertise in numerous fields. Breakwater successfully merges our knowledge base and experience in law, banking, tax, and real estate to generate a synergistic approach to client solutions. Our years of experience encompass multiple asset classes, financial institutions, and loan products.

Please review the posted testimonials for a brief insight into the success we have brought our clients. Due to the confidential nature of the industry the disclosure of information is limited.

 

Case History “A” – High End Condo Development

Our client owned a high-end four (4) unit condo construction project near the beach in San Diego, CA. The bank began experiencing problems, and as a result slowed down the funding of the client’s construction loan. The loan matured in March 2009 with only $2.4MM out of $3.5MM having been advanced to the client. The bank refused to fund the balance of the construction loan and threatened to execute on the personal guarantees.

We completed a legal, bankruptcy, and economic analyses of both the asset and the guarantors. Our primary recommendation was to cram-down the loan principal with the current bank and bring in a ‘white-knight’ investor to acquire the project at a substantial discount. However, as a matter of professional reputation the guarantor simply wanted to finish the project.

During the workout, we discovered several breach of contract and tort claims against the lender. The bank eventually recognized its conduct had voided the guarantees and created significant exposure. In addition, we demonstrated the asset’ s value would further deteriorate in bankruptcy, making a repossession uneconomical. The bank agreed to extend the loan for 1 year, advance the money to complete the project and reduce the interest rate to just 2%.

The client was pleased that they could finish the project successfully and honor the wishes of the guarantor.

Case History “B” – Condo Development

We represented a developer on a completed condo project. The owner had been in negotiations with the bank for over eight (8) months attempting to short sale the asset. The client had a buyer willing to purchase the project for $4.0MM, which was approximately $1.8MM below the note value. However, the bank was only willing to discount the note $750K and was not willing to relinquish the personal guarantee, which was full recourse.

After a thorough legal and economic analysis, it was obvious that the client had significant litigation claims. Collecting on the personal guarantee would be problematic and bankruptcy would further diminish the value. Within two weeks after the initial meeting with the lender they agreed to a full release and allowed the project to be sold to the ‘white  knight’ for $4MM.

Even though the client lost their equity in the deal they were relieved to be out of a project which may have dragged on – clouding the rest of their performing projects. Often, purging a deal strengthens a client’s portfolio.

Case History “C” – Mixed Use Retail

A large and successful Southern Californian developer attempted to renegotiate the terms of their loan with a CMBS special servicer. The project was a finished state of-the-art mixed-use development in Southern California. The client wanted a term extension and a release from the LTV covenants.

Proceeding thorough legal, bankruptcy and economic analyses of both the asset and client, it was obvious to us that the litigation and bankruptcy leverage points were unsatisfactory. We chose to concentrate on an economic approach.

Negotiations often take months. However, in this case, we completed negotiations in less than 60 days. We were able to get a 4-year extension, and a 200 basis point interest rate reduction – saving the client $1.4mm over the life of the loan.

Oftentimes, it is just a matter of having strong representation along with a couple leverage points to convince a lender to concede to reasonable terms.

Case H  istory “D” – Partially Developed Land – Entitlement (Multifamily/Commercial Zoning)

In February 2007 the asset was appraised at $6.8MM and the developer took out a $4.7MM loan with a full recourse personal guarantee. The property was adjacent to several proposed public and private projects which would create hundreds of new jobs. As the Phoenix economy collapsed and the proposed projects were cancelled, the vacant land declined in value by 80%.

We completed a thorough legal, bankruptcy and economic analyses of both the asset and the client. The legal leverage points were moderate at best. However, when we combined the legal, bankruptcy, and economic strategies we demonstrated that the bank’ s best strategy was a quick liquidation in order to avoid a continuing drop in asset values compounded by holding costs. Given a potential bankruptcy, and collectability problems with the personal guarantee, the bank was eager to purge this loan from its books.

We brought in a ‘ white knight’ and sold the property for approximately $650k. The relationship between the ‘ white knight’ and the client was disclosed in the documentation. The white knight purchased the project and re-sold it for a 100% profit.

The bank was rid of a troublesome asset, the client quickly resolved a potentially long-term problem and a related party partook in a profitable deal.

Case History “E” – Multifamily – 16 Units, Phoenix AZ

The asset’ s value had fallen from $1.5mm when the loan was made to around $400K. The asset had a negative NOI and could not cash flow even if the bank authorized a zero percent (0%) interest rate.

Even though the client had some limited assets, we were able to demonstrate to the bank they could not collect, and the best option for the bank was to repossess the project immediately – and release the client from the PG.

The bank took the property back, salvaged some value and the client avoided personal bankruptcy – protecting the rest of their assets. All of this took place in less than 90 days.

Even though we received this case just prior to the loan maturity deadline, we strategically played the few remaining cards to achieve a good resolution for the client.

Case History “F” – Corporate Housing Community

Our client acquired a 36 unit corporate housing community in October, 2007 and placed a twoyear interest-only loan at Prime Rate minus ¼ with a 7.5% floor and a 50% personal guarantee. Nearing loan maturity in late November of 2009, the bank denied long-term financing due to an LTV below 80%. To avoid a new property appraisal, the bank agreed to a six month loan extension at 6% IO and a 100% personal guarantee. As cap rates continued to rise and market rental rates decreased, our clients were rightfully hesitant to increase their liability to 100% for only a six month extension.

Once engaged, our team performed thorough economic, financial and legal analyses of the both the asset and client.

During negotiations, we convinced the bank they did not have the expertise to operate this asset as a corporate housing project, and their best option was to keep the clients in the deal. The bank reversed course and engaged in more realistic negotiations. The bank agreed to waive the $240K of back interest and keep the guarantee at 50%. The clients were most pleased with our ability to manage their liability, maintain the 50% personal guarantees and keep them in their asset.

– This acts as a guarantee of payment issued by a financial entity on behalf of a client that is used as “payment of last resort” should the client fail to fulfill a contractual commitment with a third party. Standby letters of credit are created as a sign of good faith in business transactions, and are proof of a buyer’s credit quality and repayment ability. The financial entity issuing the SLOC/SBLC will perform brief underwriting duties to ensure the viability of the contract and transaction, as well as the integrity of the party seeking the letter of credit. Typically, the letter of credit is cancelled as soon as the terms of the contract have been met by the purchaser or borrower. After due-diligence is concluded, the issuing process is 2-3 days.
