PARTICIPATING DEEDS OF TRUST
AMAC offers investments in Participating Trust Deeds to qualified
investors.
A Participating Trust Deed is an investment in a loan made to
an affiliate of American Mortgage Acceptance Corporation and/or
its officers and principals that is used in the development of
real estate projects.
The investment is typically secured by a 1st Deed of Trust against
the property, although in some cases the loan may be secured
by a 2nd Deed of Trust depending upon the financial structure
of the project. The property may already owned or is to be purchased
by a single purpose entity formed for the purpose of acquiring
and/or developing the property.
The development may be for new construction from the ground
up or a rehabilitation of an existing property.
Investors funds are used for the purchase, construction and/or
rehabbing of the project. Each investor receives a term sheet
explaining the project, use of funds and all pertinent details
of the investment.
In either case, if the property is to be new construction or
rehabilitation of an existing property, the loan to value (LTV)
will be based on an appraisal of the completed value of the project,
including the use of projected income and expense figures, if
applicable.
The investor typically receives a stated interest rate paid
on a monthly basis, usually 10%-12% per annum. At the end of
the term of the loan the investor receives an additional 3-5%
per annum return on their investment at the time of their loan
payoff.
Each project is different in its structure and term, but an
average term of investment would be 3-5 years, with a final payout
of approximately 15% to 18% per annum.
All property purchases, sales, property management and construction
management is handled through our real estate affiliate, General
American Properties, LLC (GAP) or one of its affiliates.
The principals of General American Properties, LLC have been
involved in every phase of commercial and residential real estate
investment since 1971.
