Rajesh (Rick) Patel – Chief Financial Officer

By the age of 16, Rick and his brother took full responsibility of his family’s hotel operations, as their father had hearing difficulty. Rick would alternate attending college classes with his brother in order to successfully run a hospitality business full-time as well as earn a college education.

Rick has been active in the hospitality industry for the past 15 years, specifically within the finance arena. He has owned and operated hotels, as well as acted in a consulting capacity on various hotel transactions. His extensive personal work with hotels and other facets of the hospitality industry has made him an asset to the industry and to those seeking advice on achieving success.

Manoj (Mike) Patel – Chief Investment Officer

Mike Patel is a second-generation hotelier who started his career at the age of 15 helping his parents with their hospitality property. By the age of 18, Mike took full responsibility of his family’s hotel operations. Mike has spearheaded the acquisition of numerous hotel projects (Valued at: 250M+) and played a vital role in expanding revenues. Mike has researched and recommended the disposition of assets at substantial increased revenue, and slashed project debts by carefully managing debt and investments.

Currently Mike owns and operates National Hospitality Consulting Group (NHCG), which has several major divisions including: commercial real estate brokerage, commercial lending, sourcing of private equity, note purchases, corporate bankruptcy restructuring, feasibility, valuations and other related consulting services.  During his consulting assignments, Mike has amassed a wealth of knowledge and banking relationships that brings a unique perspective to this partnership. Most of his assignments have been in the benefit of borrowers; however, due to his creative strategies, he has earned the respect of many lenders and opposing attorneys. Mike has testified in over 68 cases as an expert witness in the field of hospitality and feasibility.  Mike has worked on over 327 hotel asset cases since 1998.

In the context of feasibility and valuation, Mike represented borrowers on behalf of NHCG against firms such as Marcus & Millichap, PKF Consulting, CBRE, HREC, and HVS that were hired typically by lenders in court. Mike’s assumptions were seen as highly conservative and preferred as more achievable in most cases. As extensive bankruptcy cases continued on, Mike’s assumptions were actually proven true, as most operating numbers were within a close margin of NHCG’s assumptions vs. the aforementioned firms.

Mike Patel attended Florida Atlantic University with a major in Real Estate and a focus in Finance.

We make no representations or warranties as to the accuracy of information on this Page or in the Sponsor’s Investment Documents and we accept no liability therefor. No part of the information on this Page or in the Sponsor’s Investment Documents is intended to be binding on us.

Risk of Investment

This investment is speculative, highly illiquid, and involves substantial risk. There can be no assurances that all or any of Sponsor’s assumptions, expectations, estimates, goals, hypothetical illustrations, or other aspects of Sponsor’s business plans (“Assumptions”) will be true or that actual performance will bear any relation to Sponsor’s Assumptions, and no guarantee or representation is made that Sponsor’s Assumptions will be achieved. If Sponsor does not achieve its Assumptions, your investment could be materially and adversely affected. A loss of part or all of the principal value of your investment may occur.

No Reliance on Forward-Looking Statements; Sponsor Assumptions

Sponsor is solely responsible for statements made concerning forward-looking statements and Assumptions, which apply only as of the date made, are preliminary and subject to change, and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the disclosures and cautionary statements included in Sponsor’s Investment Documents, which you should carefully review. Neither RM Securities nor Sponsor are obligated to update or revise such forward-looking statements or Assumptions to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Sponsor’s forward-looking statements and Assumptions are hypothetical, not based on actual investment achievements or events, and are presented solely for purposes of providing insight into the Sponsor’s investment objectives, detailing Sponsor’s anticipated risk and reward characteristics, and establishing a benchmark for future evaluation of actual results; therefore, they are not a predictor, projection, or guarantee of future results.

No Reliance on Past Performance

Any description of past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance and should not be relied upon as the primary basis to invest.

Sponsor’s Use of Debt

A substantial portion of the total cost of the real estate asset acquired by the Sponsor with investor funds (“Property”) will be paid with borrowed funds, i.e., debt. Sponsor’s estimated rates and terms of the debt financing are subject to lender approval, and there is no assurance that the Sponsor will secure debt at the rates and terms presented on this Page or in the Sponsor’s Investment Documents, or at all. The use of borrowed money to acquire real estate is referred to as leveraging, which can amplify losses and could result in lender foreclosure. In addition, if the debt includes a variable (or “floating”) interest rate, the total amount of interest paid over the term of the debt will fluctuate and can increase. As a result, Sponsor’s use of debt can result in a loss of some or all of your investment.
