Also, if the investor is guaranteed ownership (house and lot) in consideration of the investment, the present value of the guaranteed ownership ($250,000) does not count toward the total amount of the investment. It may be best to present the project to an established regional center in order to reduce investment threshold to $500,000, provided that the project is within a TEA. Regional center projects allow minimal participation to investors.
