Fairway Americas Client DREAM Capital Management Launches Its First Proprietary Distressed Debt Acquisition Fund, Distressed Real Estate and Mortgage Fund I, LLC

Sunday, August 17th, 2014


(PRWEB) August 07, 2014

Fairway America, LLC (Fairway), a Portland OR based real estate asset based advisory and investment firm, played the lead role in consulting, advising and guiding the structure and formation of the Distressed Real Estate and Mortgage Fund I, LLC (DREAM or the Fund), based in the greater New York City metropolitan area. The Funds Manager, DREAM Capital Management(DCM) is owned and operated by long time Tri-state area residents Robert Napolitano and Todd Royer.

Mr. Napolitano has been passionate about real estate since his youth, learning from his immigrant father who came to the United States and began investing in real estate more than 50 years ago. My father drove a bus in Manhattan for more than 40 years, said Napolitano, and he saved and skimped to buy his first rental house. Over time he bought and sold many of them and the financial independence he achieved doing it made a great impression on me. Napolitano used these formative experiences as a motivation to create a career in the real estate business, with a focus on real estate finance.

Sensing trouble in the mid-2000s during the subprime heyday, Napolitano decided to spend time learning the more technical legal side of the real estate business in anticipation of a wave of defaults. The practices that were going on those days in the mortgage business made me think there were going to be lots of problems with foreclosures based on the crazy loans being made, and I wanted to learn how to bring value to the market in the coming downturn, which I felt was inevitable, said Napolitano. He spent time focusing on the foreclosure market and began to craft the strategy that today is the foundation of DREAMs investment focus. I believe there is a long term opportunity in helping people solve difficult problems that arise as a result of lifes circumstances, and do well financially, in the process, for ourselves and our investors. I also felt a pooled investment fund was perfect for us to be able to execute on this vision.

Napolitano first ran into Fairway at the American Association of Private Lenders (AAPL) conference in Las Vegas in the fall of 2012. When he saw a panel session featuring Fairways CEO, Matt Burk, he knew right away these were the guys to help him realize that vision. The depth of their experience and comprehensiveness of their approach were just what I was looking for, said Napolitano. I had been trying to figure out how to put DREAM together and saw that these were the people to truly help me. Having now gone through their complete fund launch consulting engagement, I am ecstatic with that decision, as I have a complete and thorough knowledge and understanding of exactly what we are doing as we launch our fund. Fairway has been invaluable in helping us get this off the ground.

DREAM has also engaged Fairway to handle the ongoing back-end administration for all of the Funds activities. Having Fairway on our team going forward will make a huge difference to us as we grow our Fund, said Royer, who will head DREAMs ongoing operational functions. Their processes, systems, and support give us a great deal of confidence that will help us inspire that same confidence in our investors as we move forward. We can focus on raising capital and finding investment opportunities that meet our criteria and know all the important fund administration details are being handled professionally by an experienced and capable group of people. DREAM is launching in August 2014 and accepts accredited investors only.

Wednesday, January 15th, 2014


Quepos, Costa Rica (PRWEB) January 03, 2014

A group of experts in international real estate has teamed up to build the largest sustainable community development in Costa Rica’s history.. Pacific Paradise Properties is being built in Quepos, home of Manuel Antonio National Park, the most visited location in Costa Rica and also home to some of the most desirable real estate. The team managing this project includes Steve Linder, the top real estate sales associate in Costa Rica, Rubloff International http://www.Rubloff.com, Chicago’s #1 luxury real estate firm as well as Berkshire Hathaways roughly 2000 brokerages and Jim Gales group, Osa Mountain Village, developer of the most successful sustainable living project to date in Costa Rica.

Current trends in population growth and the use and production of energy, food and materials have strained the word’s natural resources. It is widely recognized that rapid climate change is a growing concern. Human health and a changing ecosystem have been negatively affected. These impacts have included economic costs such as increased costs to heat and cool homes, commuting and transporting goods, etc.. Sustainable communities which work to conserve resources and minimize waste are gathering steam. Sustainable food production is key to this project.

Pacific Paradise Properties will be a planned master community with low HOA fees and a business participation program designed to give a percentage of all profits back to the community and with common area amenities to generate income to offset operating expense. Nearly 75% of the entire development will be planted with fruits, vegetables or green space. A fish farm and chicken coops will be built as well. The community will include a volunteer center, a community center and a healthy living program. This model has already proven hugely successful in Osa Mountain Village.

The home sites will be individually deeded with full ownership to the buyer and registered in the national registry in Costa Rica. Foreigners have full right to property ownership in Costa Rica. The Quepos location is ideal and the property selected could not be better for the purpose, located just off the new Costanera highway about 2 hours drive from the San Jose International airport. There is a large public hospital, a domestic airport and brand new large marina located nearby as well as over 100 hotels and restaurants. This part of the country is one of the most beautiful with towering mountains, majestic palms, white sand beaches and home to the most visited national park in Costa Rica.

To kick off the project theyve announced a limited time offer through January 31, 2014. 30 people only will buy a highly discounted predevelopment 1/2 acre home site in Pacific Paradise Village and receive a 3 day free luxury vacation in Costa Rica including airfare of up to $ 600 per person. For the first 30 people, mountain view home sites are discounted to $ 40,000 and ocean view at $ 60,000. These lots will list for $ 50,000 and $ 75,000 in early 2015 when the project officially is released to the public. The 30 initial buyers will also have the option of having the developer purchase back their lots in 24 months for 20% more than they paid for it, $ 48,000 or $ 72,000 respectively. Theyll also have first pick of home sites out of the 500 lots planned in the community. These initial buyers will have their investment secured by a first mortgage on the property until the lots are individually segregated.

We Sell Costa Rica is a real estate firm dedicated to finding the best values for their clients. To find out more contact Steve Linder at 305-295-0137 or at http://www.wesellcostarica.com.
