Before you read more, please note, this website, vciplus.us, which we refer to as the “Site,” is used by two different companies: Venture Capital Investment Plus, LLC, which we refer to as “VCIPlus Capital,” and Venture Capital Investment Plus Portal, LLC, which we refer to as “VCIPlus Portal.” VCIPlus Capital offers investments in real estate, retail and industrial projects under Reg D 506(c), Reg A+ of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These investments are offered to accredited investors only. VCIPlus Portal, which is a licensed Funding Portal, offers investments in real estate, retail and industrial projects under Regulation Crowdfunding, which is also known as Title III Crowdfunding. These investments are offered to everyone.
Venture Capital Investment Plus is a real estate, retail and industrial investment crowdfunding platform. We match investors with developers raising funds for real estate, retail and industrial projects and to provide everyone with the opportunity to invest. Venture Capital Investment Plus supports Regulation CF, Regulation A+ and Regulation D 506c allowing issuers to legally raise funding from investors in all 50 states under Federal Law.
You can raise up to $5 M from anyone over the age of 18 through Reg CF annually. Accredited investors self-verify and invest as much as they like. And unaccredited investors are permitted to invest a percentage of either their income or net worth, capped at $107,000 annually.
You can offer minimum investment amounts as low as you like which is important if you want to include community capital.
If you want to raise more, you can do so through a Reg A+ or Reg D Offering.
**Rich means accredited investors with $1M+ in net worth (minus their home) or who’ve earned more than $200K per year ($300k with a spouse) in each of the past two years. It also means institutions like banks and VCs. Technically, 35 non-rich unaccredited investors are allowed.
***There is a variant of Regulation D (Rule 506c) that permits advertising if investors are verified as accredited.
