## FAQ
1. **Hello good day , I’m interested to invest in this project and I see a lot of room for great potential. I wanted to ask about the “SAFE “ ; in terms of this agreement would investors only see a ROI if the business is sold ? Or can potential investors expect Dividend distributio...**
   - There are no plans to sell this business. Ever. The ROI doesn't come from a traditional liquidation event, where investors need an IPO or an acquisition to realize a profit. This is a cash flow play. Investors realize ROI as rental units become occupied and revenue surpasses expenses. The end goal is for investors to realize distributions at this location, and possibly expansion locations ... in perpetuity.
2. **The 2.7x return at 40% of revenue is generous. How long do you expect that ROI to take?**
   - Early backers taking the biggest leap of faith should be rewarded. The financial modeling suggests that assuming a Jan 2026 start, at reasonable occupancy rates, at a reasonable rent, at the 7 years it will take to repay; that amounts to a minimum of 21% - 24% ROI. Although these are projections that can change and cannot be guaranteed, I believe this is attainable.
3. **Hi, interesting concept, as I do believe there is a market for African American's that want to expat to Ghana. On the business model, I see this as a real estate (RE) new development play. Which I've done multiple RE LP deals. Question: 1. New RE development projects are very ...**
   - Lots to cover here ... I'm not sure how to quantify "very high risk". In my experience risk tranches are perceived differently by different investors. Early investors who know my track record don't believe this is a risky deal. As I hit future milestones, what appeared to be very high risk at hour zero, will appear to be less and less risky. Have not broke ground yet. In the land acquisition phase currently. The cost will be between 3.5 to 4.5 million. Early investors who take most of the ris...
4. **Are there any further updates on the current state of play?**
   - Hello. We just acquired 43 acres of land for the project. Now we need to raise capital to complete the purchase and begin landscaping and eventually construction.

## Q&A
- Q: Hi, interesting concept, as I do believe there is a market for African American's that want to expat to Ghana. On the business model, I see this as a real estate (RE) new development play. Which I've done multiple RE LP deals. Question: 1. New RE development projects are very high risk. Have you already broke ground and do you have necessary government approvals? 2. What is the projected project cost and how much is funded by debt vs equity? 3. Have you secured debt funding? If so, what are the terms (interest rate, for how longs, and fixed vs float) 4. Is equity just coming from Wefunder? If not, what other sources? 5. How much equity is from you or the GPs? 6. Do you have a waiting list of interested buyers? If so, how many names and how much was the deposit? 7. What is the exit plan for RE LP investors (ie. refi to long-term fixed debt, sell to institutional investor, etc.) 8. RE projects are more about the jokey (the operator) than the horse (the project). What is your RE experience. How many projects, how many years, deals full cycle, and average IRR exits.
  - A: Lots to cover here ... I'm not sure how to quantify "very high risk". In my experience risk tranches are perceived differently by different investors. Early investors who know my track record don't believe this is a risky deal. As I hit future milestones, what appeared to be very high risk at hour zero, will appear to be less and less risky. Have not broke ground yet. In the land acquisition phase currently. The cost will be between 3.5 to 4.5 million. Early investors who take most of the risk will have equity + preferred and it's expected that the later staged funding will be mostly preferred shares. No gov't approvals needed. Initial funding in the form of this revenue share is coming from Wefunder; looking to raise $250k in this friends and family round. Later funding is expected from professional money. These are rental units not purchases. And with zero marketing we have a waiting list of 5 out of the 100 units to rent. The only question is .... are there 100 people from America who want to move to Ghana but do not want to purchase (ever, or just now) but would rather rent a unit in a fully serviced community than buy/buy & build. I do not promote any exit plan as many investors will be satisfied with 12% - 15% cum preferred returns in perpetuity, but I am open to providing exit options for any LPs that require it. You could say that for ANY business the jockey is just as, if not more important than the project. I have zero commercial RE experience. By the time the early funding derisks most of the project, enough professional money needed to complete the project will be comforted. Lastly, I believe the success of this project will be determined by the intangibles beyond bricks and cement. Anyone can hire a top 5 developer/construction company here in Ghana. Anyone can engage a top 5 architectural firm here in Ghana. It's the intimate insights I have of the end user/renter, understanding the coming expat wave on the horizon and putting all the pieces together for this initial location that will drive the success.
