Commercial Real Estate Development Finance, Due Diligence Documentation & Syndicated Equity Fundings Consulting

Welcome to Rainmaker Marketing Corporation's online commercial real estate development finance information portal.  The purpose of this web channel is to focus on assisting commercial real estate developers to obtain the capital financing they require to promote the development of a new construction project somewhere in North America.  Rainmaker also supports the acquisition of existing properties and property portfolios.  Rainmaker has a definitive track record of service to the commercial income-producing property development industry stretching back to the late 1980s and encompassing literally hundreds upon hundreds of assignments across the United States, the Caribbean Basin, Canada and Mexico.

Our stock and trade consulting services include:

  1. market feasibility studies.  The market feasibility study is the foundation document that all other due diligence documents, designs and programs rely upon.  That's why so many companies have relied upon the Rainmaker approach; it's efficient, broad-based and completely transparent.  If you are going to be seeking construction financing from a third-party institution, a market feasibility study is required and it must confirm all aspects of the financial feasibility study (below), the operating program, the scope of the construction program and the schedule of services and amenities.

  2. financial feasibility studies and pro forma financial presentations.  Once the market feasibility study is completed, the next step is the creation of a financial feasibility study that includes all of the major pro forma FASB schedules, the supporting pro forma department budgets, occupancy/utilization schedules and revenue schedules together with a detailed presentation of the notes and assumptions, graphics and a detailed technical discussion of the findings on a month-by-month and year-by-year basis.  Clients rely upon Rainmaker because of our expertise and advanced software that is licensed only to Rainmaker that allows for lightning fast turnarounds.

  3. business proposals, capital funding proposals & business plans.  At some point in the process, the developer (or owner/operator as the case may be) will need to solicit capital financing for the project.  This means a summary capital funding proposal must be created for the project and you'll want Rainmaker to prepare your business financing proposal because we prepare so many of them.  You can't afford a single error, as lenders and investors receive untold numbers of unsolicited proposals every day.  Your proposal has to survive the initial fact check, grammar and form.  Rely on Rainmaker to help you get there - quickly and efficiently.

  4. commercial real estate syndication plans and other structured funding solutions.  In today's capital markets, every real estate development project and developer/promoter is best served by understanding that real success lies in the developer being able to obtain favorable terms for the development financing.  This can only happen when a structured funding approach is used that includes real estate syndications and other equity financing enhancements.  Rainmaker has the expertise the developer needs to acquire the needed financing and each capital funding plan we create includes a syndication opportunity.

  5. non-recourse development lending plans & equity funding solutions.  The federal government is not the only player in the commercial real estate financing capital markets that can provide non-recourse lending 9or what amounts to the same thing).  By using a variety of equity funding products, the developer can lower the construction mortgage financing loan's loan-to-cost ratio to a point where a lender can be induced to make the loan on a non-recourse basis and without the dreaded cross-collateralization requirement.  Again, it's time you turned somewhere to find the answers.  You're arrived; Rainmaker is that source.

  6. commercial real estate joint-venture investment opportunities.  Are you looking for more opportunity in commercial real estate investing?  25%, 50%, even 100% per annum cash-on-cash returns?  Whether you are looking to be part of the construction risk pool and access an investment vehicle that is designed to provide higher-yielding cash flows (if successful) or take a long-term holding position for investment income, we have some answers and opportunities you need to learn about.

This web portal provides both topic-oriented information and discussion areas as well as services and discussion materials for specific asset classes.  Take your time and bookmark this page because no matter what the subject you are interested in learning more about, this web portal is likely to provide detailed discussion materials to help speed you on your way.

Your vision is our mission.
