How LBC Capital Income Fund, LLC Conducts Due Diligence: Ensuring Secure and Profitable Investments

High returns can be reaped from investments in trust deeds and real estate-backed loans with significantly lower volatility; these advantages, however, are only conceivable upon the backing of a robust due diligence process. It is important for an investor to understand exactly how their chosen fund goes about assessing and mitigating risk. Due diligence forms the backbone of our strategy here at LBC Capital Income Fund, LLC Income Fund, wherein every investment decision is made in keeping with our goals of security, profitability, and transparency.

Let’s dive in and understand how LBC Capital Income Fund, LLC conducts due diligence to protect your investments and maximize your returns, so that you can have peace of mind with every dollar you commit.

Why Due Diligence is Important in Trust Deed Investments

Trust deeds lend money against real estate, but not all loan opportunities are created equal. There is a lot of risk in the market: from overvalued properties and uncreditable borrowers to bad economic times. If not researched correctly, investments go into defaults or a loss of capital.

The pain points usually faced by investors include:

• Whether the value of the property justifies the amount of the loan.
• The creditworthiness and repayment capabilities of the borrower.
• The risk of default and foreclosure.

LBC Capital Income Fund, LLC realizes these concerns and uses an extensively designed due diligence process to protect investors’ funds and maintain returns predictably.

Step 1: Property Evaluation
Each layer of security within a trust deed investment begins with the property. At LBC Capital Income Fund, LLC, we employ an extremely judicious and measured approach in our due diligence by meticulously evaluating the property which secures each loan.

Here’s what we review:

• Location Analysis: Is the property in a high-demand area? We specialize in California real estate and other major metropolitan markets where demand remains strong even during economic downturns.
• Current Market Value: We engage third-party appraisers to provide an independent, professional valuation of the property.
• Loan-to-Value (LTV) Ratio: LBC Capital Income Fund, LLC only considers loans that have an LTV ratio below 70%, to make sure property value is well above the amount loaned. This acts as a buffer in case of foreclosure.

Example: If a borrower needs $500,000 on a property valued at $750,000, then his LTV would be 66%, meeting our strict criteria. This makes sure investors are further protected.

Step 2: Screening Borrowers
Even with excellent collateral, the repayment capability of a borrower is paramount. LBC Capital Income Fund, LLC embarks on serious scrutiny of borrowers to ascertain the dependability and creditworthiness of the borrowers.

What we look for:

• Credit History: The financial background of the borrower is scrutinized regarding his/her credit scores, history of payment system, and current debt position.
• Verification of Income: That the borrower has adequate income or business revenues coming in, particularly to replay the loan.
• Experience: In the case of real estate developers or flippers, we review past performance based on completed projects.

By balancing the screening of borrowers with the evaluation of properties, we minimize the occurrence of defaults and protect both the fund and our investors.

Step 3: Market and Economic Analysis
Real estate is no exception to the rule of economic fluctuation. At LBC Capital Income Fund, LLC, ongoing market surveillance at any given time assures that every loan offered is in concert with current and future market conditions.

Our process incorporates:

• Local Market Trends: Are property values appreciating, or are they stagnant? This helps us focus on the right markets and avoid others altogether.
• Interest Rate Environment: Increasing interest rates can impact borrowers’ abilities to refinance loans. LBC Capital Income Fund, LLC makes sure our investments will hold up during rate changes.
• Regulatory Changes: For instance, we stay abreast of changes in real estate laws and changes in zoning laws to avoid surprises that could negatively affect the value of property.

For example, at some point our analysis showed that the pandemic trend in housing preference changes has increased demand for properties in suburban areas of California. This insight has guided our loan decisions to properties with higher future appreciation potential.

Step 4: Legal and Documentation Review
Any trust deed investment should have iron-clad legal documentation to protect the fund and its investors. LBC Capital Income Fund, LLC works with experienced attorneys to ensure compliance and to protect your investment.

Key areas:

• Verifying terms of loan are explicitly stated within both the trust deed and promissory note.
• Property title verification: The property has no liens or disputes on it.
• Insurance against natural disasters and other unforeseen contingencies.
  This step ensures that there are no legal surprises down the road, thus further instilling confidence in investors that their funds are safe.

Step 5: Ongoing Portfolio Loan Monitoring
Due diligence does not stop after funding. At LBC Capital Income Fund, LLC, we remain very active in our performance monitoring of all loans within our portfolio.

Our monitoring process involves:

• The periodic review of borrower payments to realize early signs of delays or defaults.
• Property inspection to ensure collateral performance.
• Regular communication with borrowers to meet challenges that may be faced by a borrower.

In case of default, we collect money without any delay with the help of our legal protection through collateralized properties and mitigate losses as much as possible.
