The deals that will begin registration with the SEC in June and will take a few months to completely cycle through, but the law is now fully in place. The new rules for Regulation A+ of the JOBS Act allow for capital raising, with some stipulation, of up to $50,000,000 from both accredited and non-accredited investors for private companies.

“We are already seeing a great deal of interest from both investors looking to invest and companies seeking capital through the Reg A+ rules,” stated Jake Durrant, Crowdfundraiser’s Managing Director. “We are not expecting this interest to abate as the new tools at the disposal of small business represent one of the greatest opportunities for small business capital formation in a generation.”

Phoenix Firm, StartCapital, Announces New Equity Crowdfunding Platform for Title IV, Reg A+ Securities Offerings

StartCapital exclusive investment group has deep-pocketed individuals and institutions willing to pay for the legal and accounting costs incident to a Regulation A+ crowdfunded offering

By Robert Hoskins

Phoenix, Arizona – StartCapital.com announces the launch of its new website to source alternative startup financing for pre-growth companies in Series A and B offerings. The launch of the new website coincides with the new Regulation A+ crowdfunding regulation slated to take effect in several weeks.

“We’re seeing great interest in sourcing capital through Reg A+ and we expect this demand will only grow,” says Jake Durrant, Managing Director.

StartCapital.com intends on assisting with capital raising opportunities for startups, but also hopes to source funds for residential and commercial real estate with Regulation A+ crowdfunding. Startups represent an important market, but investors are typically more driven toward investment products that include very solid collateral. Real estate fits this bill very nicely.

“While startups are often very sexy, it can be difficult to sell investors on the idea that their investment is safe, particularly if nothing exists except for some intellectual property and potential in a group of entrepreneurs,” Durrant says. “It’s one of the reasons we’re seeing such a big uptick in real estate related crowdfunding transactions.”

In addition to crowdfunding, the company also provides alternative financing for small companies looking to source capital for their businesses from other non-bank sources. For instance, the company provides debt financing through partners allowing for SBA, line of credit and asset-based lending. In addition, alternative equity options are also offered through things like self-directed retirement accounts, including IRAs and 401(k)s.

Finally, Start Capital is partnered with other equity investors that can assist in writing checks of up to $1,000,000 for the right venture and team. “Our investors are looking for those diamonds in the rough,” says Durrant.

When sourcing the right deals, the Start Capital exclusive investment group also has deep-pocketed individuals and institutions willing to pay for the legal and accounting costs incident to a Regulation A+ crowdfunded offering.

“We’re most excited about our partnership with the right investment groups who’re greatly interested in sourcing and paying for the costs of Reg A+,” Durrant says. “Since June 19th marks the beginning of Reg A+, we wanted to be ready when demand for mini-IPOs really opens up.”

Start Capital is a owned and operated by Deal Capital Partners, an M&A advisory firm with partners scattered across the United States. The firm offers an interesting mix of financial advisory services, from growth capital to mergers and acquisitions. The company is positioning itself for implementation and use of some of the latest options available thanks to the JOBS Act.

Crowdfundraiser.com Readies Equity Crowdfunding Platform to Host Tier 2, Title IV, Regulation A+, Mini-IPOs

Crowdfundraiser and its partners, including attorneys and accountants, will be prepared to provide Form 1-A filing and audit solutions for businesses looking to perform Tier 2 Regulation A+ crowdfunding

 By Robert Hoskins

Seattle, Washington – Crowdfundraiser.com announced the addition of services geared toward companies looking to file Reg A+ offerings. Starting sometime in June, when the ability to file Regulation A+ becomes completely effective, Crowdfundraiser and its partners, including attorneys and accountants, will be prepared to provide Form 1-A filing and audit solutions for businesses looking to perform Tier 2 Regulation A+ crowdfunding.

Even though the full release of Regulation A+ will not occur until June, the team at Crowdfundraiser is ramping up to prepare several companies who’ve already expressed interest. Each offerer is intent on raising the maximum amount from the offering at $50 million. “We’re already seeing a great deal of interest in Regulation A+ offerings, but we’re being very selective on the types of companies and operators with whom we’re engaging,” says Jake Durrant, Managing Director.

Because the law itself confines the type, size and structure of each deal and company, there is already a narrow definition of the businesses Crowdfundraiser can work with. Furthermore, the Crowdfundraiser team has also opted to ensure the opportunities with which they assist have a high probability of being fully subscribed. “While we have the ability to scale our processes, we would prefer to work with the highest quality deals we can,” says Durrant. “Doing so increases the probability of success and creates the best situation for both investors and entrepreneurs alike.”

Crowdfundraiser is intent on only providing services for companies looking to do Tier 2 offerings with Regulation A+. “We feel Tier 1 Reg A offerings are not only too small, but are almost a non-starter due to the fact that Tier 1 offers don’t preempt the state Blue Sky Laws,” Durrant says. “This may pigeonhole us somewhat, but it helps define where we’ll play and where we won’t.”
