Real Estate Revolution: Where Simplicity Becomes Substantial - Investors
In this section, we turn our attention to the participant in the process that receives the greatest focus from most firms. For most firms, investors are the customers with all other activities serving to deliver a compelling product that entices the investor to select their firm and for good reason. Investors are the catalyst that keeps the entire ecosystem working. However, as with each of the other components we've examined, Tempus eschews this traditional approach in favor of bringing investors fully into the value-creation process.
Investors are not just external beneficiaries for Tempus’ efforts; they are integral contributors and beneficiaries of the ecosystem. With a low-fee structure, transparency, and a process-driven approach, Tempus aligns investor interests with the overall value-creation process. Investors, in return, play a critical role in sustaining and improving the Tempus ecosystem.
How Tempus Benefits Investors
The Tempus benefit to investors begins with their commitment to a simple, low-fee structure that closely aligns the interests of the investment team and investors. Tempus also provides a structural advantage in transparency allowing investors to analyze the assets they're investing in before committing capital. Tempus delivers investors relative value across a wide range of market conditions. By aggregating the advantages attained from each component of the ecosystem, Tempus can deliver repeated investment opportunities with a clear value proposition without relying on unpredictable market cycles.
How Investors Benefit Tempus
Investors are the critical energy source that enables the Tempus ecosystem to thrive and generate value. They help maintain the community by introducing new participants, providing investment opportunity referrals, and acting as a check on the rigor and conviction of the investment team for each investment opportunity. They also, of course, provide the equity capital that makes each transaction possible. However, in this most obvious benefit lies one final difference that makes the Tempus platform unique.
The Tempus platform can reliably generate value only because of the regular and continued engagement of each of the value components supporting the others, including from the investors. Each investor who chooses to trust the Tempus platform with their investment capital contributes to the ecosystem. But regardless of the size of their investment, those who contribute repeatedly and consistently return the most to the Tempus community. These most consistent investors, regardless of their size, are recognized with a reserved spot at the table for each new opportunity the platform yields.
