A Real Estate Development Company’s Journey to Securing Capital Without Traditional Financing
Here's What We Do Better
Background
Our client, a real estate development company, was facing a problem common among new businesses: a lack of startup capital. The company had a solid business plan and a strong team, but they were unable to secure traditional forms of financing, such as loans or investments. They were determined to launch their multimillion-dollar venture, but they needed a creative solution to generate the necessary funds.
Problem
The client was in a difficult position because they lacked the capital necessary to purchase the land and materials required to start building their first project. Additionally, they were unable to secure traditional forms of financing, such as loans or investments. This lack of funding put the company at risk of not being able to launch, despite having a solid business plan and a strong team.
COUNTERTRADE SOLUTIONS
SOLUTION #1.
As a countertrade expert, I proposed a combination of multiple countertrade mechanisms to generate cash revenue for the client company. First, I suggested a clearing agreement with a foreign construction company. This would involve the client providing construction services to the foreign company in exchange for a cash payment, which would be used to purchase the land and materials needed for their first project.
SOLUTION #2.
I also proposed a Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) agreement with a foreign real estate company. Under this agreement, the client would use the cash generated from the clearing agreement to build a real estate project for the foreign company, who would then operate and manage the project for a specified period of time. After the agreed-upon period, the foreign company would transfer ownership of the project back to the client.
SOLUTON #3.
Finally, I suggested a Joint Venture (JV) with a foreign real estate developer. The JV would involve the foreign developer investing cash in exchange for a share of the profits generated by the client’s real estate projects.
Result
RESULT
The combination of these countertrade mechanisms allowed the client to secure the necessary startup capital without incurring debt or government involvement. The clearing agreement generated $500,000 in cash, which was used to purchase the land and materials for their first project. The BOT agreement generated an additional $1,000,000 over the course of 5 years, and the JV generated $2,500,000 in investment capital. These funds allowed the client to successfully launch their multimillion-dollar real estate development company and begin building their first project.
RESULT
This case study demonstrates how countertrade mechanisms can be used to generate cash revenue and solve the problem of a lack of startup capital for new businesses. It is a good example for entrepreneurs who want to start their own businesses.
