MONOPOLY I, LLC BUSINESS PLAN

The Executive Summary

The Company

MONOPOLY I, LLC is a Missouri-based real estate company that employs a balanced strategy encompassing property purchases (hard assets) and a diversified portfolio of Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and mutual funds (marketable securities).

The Company’s Mission

The mission of MONOPOLY I, LLC is to maximize share member value by purchasing undervalued residential properties and developing them into profitable rental properties. In addition, we will achieve industry and geographical diversification by developing and managing a marketable securities portfolio seeking income and capital appreciation.

The Company’s Strategy

Our strategy for company growth and development consists of three phases: growth, debt reduction, and distributions to share members.

Company growth and development consists of a balanced approach of purchasing multi-family housing and real estate investment securities. Our goal for company growth is to build a $5,000,000 real estate investment portfolo by the end of 2016. In order to accomplish this, M1 will seek to raise $110,000 annually in capital investments (by issuing member shares) to finance the purchase of $500,000 of real estate investments.

Debt reduction will occur automatically with principal payments on mortgages; however a concentrated approach will be employed in the year 2017. During 2017-2021, M1 will use all available funds (after dividend distribution) to reduce and retire debt.

Distributions to share members will begin in year 6 (2012). However, beginning in 2022, M1 will increase the distributions to reflect the reduced amount of funds needed for debt service.

Investor Marketing and Sales Strategy

MONOPOLY I, LLC will accept applications to become an investor until the company reaches its goal of 100 investors. Each investor is expected to be committed to the company’s growth objectives. Investors are asked to provide a minimum initial investment of $200 with subsequent monthly investments of $200. Investors can opt to make annual one-time investments of $2,400. There is no maximum investment.

Investors will largely come from personal acquaintances of the managing members. Anyone interested, however, may complete an application and be interviewed to become an investor.

The Competition

Today many Americans look to get involved in real estate. It is one of the best ways to accumulate wealth over time. Many investors are small property owners, usually owning one to three properties. Small property owners miss out on economies of scale, the ability to negotiate rates and buy in bulk. Economies of scale alone can increase your profit by 5-10%. With a multi-million dollar real estate portfolio, M1 will look to establish strategic alliances with service and product providers as well as take advantage of price points and bulk purchases, thus reducing our expenses and maximizing our net income.

Target Market

M1 will operate in the Midwest states (initially in Joplin, MO), targeting multi-family properties. Joplin provides a daytime population of over 250,000 and an estimate of more than 5,000 commercial and multi-family housing units. In 2010 we expanded our operations by adding two apartment buildngs in Macomb, IL. Additionally, M1 has purchased REITs owning retail, office, industrial, student housing, and specialty use properties diversified geographically throughout the United States.

Our investment process:

It takes vision to create great real estate investments. And visionary thinking has been MONOPOLY I, LLC's trademark for more than 6 years. It’s through this thinking we find markets on the verge of upswings and properties with repositioning potential to deliver great returns to our investors. Our dedicated team of industry experts continuously examines the marketplace with one goal in mind: to identify key target areas that show promise to perform at exceptional levels while meeting the company’s goals. We take a number of variables into account when researching different markets with the most critical, of course, being location. Here’s how our process works:

1. We identify our target markets then hit the ground running. We develop a team of local experts to help find and acquire top-notch assets. And, working with local area brokers, management companies, and economists, we scour each market for opportunities in both existing multifamily assets and undeveloped land.

2. Once we identify an attractive property asset, our professional due diligence and financial analyst teams take over. We evaluate every aspect of the property’s existing and potential operations. This includes comprehensive detailed evaluations of financials and rent rolls, analysis of sub-market trends in rental rates and occupancies, and physical inspections of the asset.

3. We develop a working management plan analyzing revenue potential for the asset while considering the optimal timing for future refinance or disposition opportunities. Then, if we like what we see, we issue a non-binding letter of intent to purchase the property.

4. Once the non-binding letter of intent is accepted, we begin our in-depth due diligence process with our in-house experts while the purchase and sale contract is being negotiated. We walk each unit and examine every ‘nook and cranny’ to identify any potential maintenance issues. We audit every renter file to match up the information on record with the rent roll and financials. And, we acquire bids on any capital work that might be required.

5. If needed, we will use the information gathered during the due diligence process to confirm our business plan and make sure that our original assumptions still hold true. Our investors’ interests are always at the forefront of our minds. And, if the deal doesn’t work, we walk away.

6. If we are confident that our offer will deliver the value, we move forward to secure financing and completing the acquisition of the asset.

7. Then we take possession of the property and execute our management plan to add value by drawing on our decades of property management experience to maximize the potential returns to our investment partners.
