Follow a dollar.

Where a dollar goes once it is in the Fund, and how it comes back to you.

  1. You buy units

    $1.00 per unit, 50,000 units to start.

  2. The Fund buys loans

    Auto loan receivables from local dealers, assigned to the Fund.

  3. Borrowers pay monthly

    Payments are collected and serviced in-house.

  4. The General Partner takes 20%

    10% of collected income for servicing, 10% for managing the Fund.

  5. You receive the preferred return

    10.125% a year, paid on the 15th or reinvested.

Anything earned above the Preferred Return is split evenly between the General Partner and the Limited Partners each year. If the loans earn less, the return can be lower.

Payout or growth?

Take your distribution every month, or let the Fund reinvest it for you. Move the numbers to compare.
