Even though you plan to raise the future round at a higher valuation, I as an investor will get my shares converted not at 3M valuation (which you think is the value) but the 15M cap and that means, say In future round you raise at 30M, my shares which should have been a 10X based on your current valuation will JUST BE 2X and I as an investor will lose a lot even though I belived in you and invested in you early. Companies go for SAFE or convertible when they are not sure about the value of a company. Had you done an equity round at 3M valuation, I would have happily onboarded the trai. I feel the valuation cap(15M) is absolutely ridiculous esp., when it's already 5X the valuation (3M) you believe in. In simple you are onboarding investors at a much premium price and I don't think that is fair. Now what if the next round raise is say less than 15M, we all who belived in you early will stand to lose a lot.

Companies like us use SAFE when they do not wish to put a firm value on the company at an early stage. That being said a company must still have some non-cv valuation until they receive a 409A valuation in later price rounds. Pocket Properties is both a Financial Technology company and a real estate company, with real estate playing such a critical part in our company this has a tremendous impact on the worth of Pocket Properties.

I'm still struggling to understand the app from a customer perspective. 1. I've done a lot of real estate syndications, so I get the benefit of a lower barrier to entry aka cost. But I can do that today at groundfloor.us, smallchange.co, or other platforms. Besides being an app and tokens, why are you better? 2. For RE I'm use to being a debt or equity partner. I don't understand the token model. Is the token going to be a security and that security listed as the property owner or lien holder? 3. For RE debt or equity, someone has to be the loan servicer or GC (fix and flip)/property manager (buy and hold). Is that your company or will you outsource? 4. RE syndication is all about trusting the GP as the LP. So are you guys the sponsor or will you find sponsors to fund? 5. What will be the tax structure for USA customers on income? K-1, 1099-INT, etc. 5. For RE, there's IRR I'm targeting depending on the holding risk and security type. For debt I'm looking for 8-12% annual interest average for a 2-3 year hold and for equity I'm looking for 16-24% IRR average for a 5-7. What do you see is the targeted ROI for customers. 7.

I’m not sure the leadership team here has extensive experience in renovating buildings or new builds. I have some experience myself and a close friend of mine is a developer - building is challenging. There’s permitting, a myriad of suppliers, design considerations, selecting the right amount of financial leverage for each project, and many more things that each carry their own risk profile. Who on the leadership team would oversee land development or flipping? The use of professional property management firms was mentioned. The fees on that are around 8-10% of rental income. That’s a huge reduction in profits and suggests that management of this group does not know how to do this. If I am wrong, please explain the rationale for paying third party property management firms and help me understand what this leadship team is actually bringing to the table.","author_name":"David Hudson","votes":0,"created_at":"2022-03-25T19:02:34Z","canonical_url":"https://wefunder.com/pocket.properties.app#question-198112","answers":[{"id":198400,"entity_id":"wefunder:comment:198400","answer":"Hi David, Thank you for your question. Pocket Properties App does not hold or own the assets that are on the platform. I believe the term that you are referencing as \"property managers\" is actually \"third-party real estate owners\". While there were mentions of utilizing property management in an early stage of the company, that has since been changed due to increased refinement of the business model. Pocket Properties App follows a two-sided marketplace model meaning that we rely on real estate professionals and real estate owners to provide assets for the platform. (They are vetted for viability before being released to the general public.) As for our team's experience in the REI world, 4 out of the 6 executives on the team have worked in a multitude of roles in the real estate space, ranging from Fix and Flips to BRRR investing.","author_name":"Stanley Glover","votes":0,"created_at":"2022-03-28T14:20:06Z"}]},{"id":198110,"entity_id":"wefunder:comment:198110","question":"How is this opportunity better than picking up shares in a well established REIT? There are plenty of REITs right now trading with around 10% yields, and even some at a discount to NAV with growing margins, growing dividends, and floating rate contracts with tenants (a great inflation hedge).

When Purchasing a REIT you are actually purchasing shares of a company that manages Real Estate in our case you will be purchasing actually shares of property or even the loans to renovate a specific real estate project. Just like the examples you provided for REITS, many of our investment opportunities will offer the same. This structure allows us to provide P2P trading, cryptocurrency payments, and even an AMM just to name a few of the benefits.

For debt-based investments, the borrower must pay back all debt in full or face penalties or forfeit the asset collateral 2) Our average annual interest that a user can expect is 8-12% for debt investments, on the conservative side. like all investments, we cannot guarantee this. 3). Our Team is positioned to be able to last a minimum of 5 years without funding. We knew going into this mission this would not be a simple task and would not happen overnight. It is looking very likely we will receive additional funding in the near future. 4) We are projecting profitability in a few months after MVP. As we grow and are able to add additional revenue streams outside of debt offering we expect a dramatic increase in profitability. 5)We will use property management companies from all over the nation (U.S.A) to upkeep these properties and ensure the tenants have optimal living conditions. We will consistently upload pictures of these properties so our investors will know the quality of the projects they are investing in. For the payment of the upkeep we will use our reserve which will come from our transaction fees, another method for paying for the maintenance would be to deduct it from the rent dividends. We will store all this information on a transparent and immutable blockchain as soon as possible.","author_name":"Stanley Glover","votes":1,"created_at":"2022-02-21T21:59:34Z"}]}],"faq":[{"question":"What is your reasoning behind the 20m valuation?","answer":"Thanks Edward, We're valuing the company at $2,500,000 the valuation cap is separate from the companies actual valuation. Here's an excerpt from WeFunder that might explain the difference a bit better. \"The valuation cap is a way to reward seed stage investors for taking on additional risk. The valuation cap sets the maximum price that your convertible security will convert into equity. To translate that into a share price, you divide the valuation cap by the series A valuation. \""},{"question":"Hi, what is the name of the entity for the future equity?
