Retail Development Consultants - Due Diligence & Project Financing


Welcome to the retail development programming section of RMC's corporate web server.  Our retail development consultants focus on helping clients create a structured finance approach to the development of their anchored retail development projects, unanchored retail development projects and mixed-use projects.  RMC's consultants are flexible and success focused.  Whether you are a portfolio buyer or you are undertaking your first retail development project, Rainmaker Marketing Corporation has the experience and capacity to provide for all of your due diligence documentation needs.

Rainmaker Marketing Corporation's services regimen highlights the following items:

  • Entitlements.  Does the project qualify for New Markets Tax Credits?  If so, which NMTC Allocatees are covering the local market area?  Does the project qualify for Private Activity Bond financing ("PAB")?  Does the project site require remediation?  If so, does the property qualify for the Brownfields credit?  What about a TIF plan?  Can we undertake a TIF plan proposal without creating a high likelihood of protracted litigation?  Does the proposed project qualify for the Bonus Depreciation Expense Allowance?  The answer is a comprehensive entitlement review.  Let's leave no money lying about on the table at closing.  You have to be, "in it to win it" and that starts with the entitlements.

  • The Capital Funding Plan.  This is where financial investment leverage is created or destroyed.  A successful outcome is almost totally dependent upon a capital funding plan approach that leverages out subjective investment risks and locks in returns at the preferred equity class and common equity class.  Dilution is our biggest enemy and extra diligence is required in reviewing the supporting documents including the private placement offering memorandum.

The array of services available from Rainmaker in support of a commercial real estate acquisition or development program are comprehensive and include:

With Rainmaker, you have the opportunity to create your own transaction paradigm because Rainmaker is flexible enough to plan and provide services that you need without requiring you to invest in services that don't directly add value because they could be replicated by the client's own work.  Rainmaker's approach is to concentrate on identifying the weaknesses in the transaction or client operating structure.  Rainmaker Marketing Corporation focuses on the value-added approach that has been the hallmark of our company for the past 15 years.  We are motivated to work every angle towards the end game - the capitalization of the proposed project.  Have you taken the time to give fractional real estate ownership interests syndications all due diligence?  A fractional real estate ownership interest syndication typically uses the tenants-in-common approach.  Now you can access at-risk equity contributions as early as the pre-construction phase for projects with a total project budget of at least $2.5 million.
