Get Real (REIT) investments are with large REIT companies that trade their shares on public stock exchanges. Share values can fluctuate as the stock market goes up or down. On average, REITs have returned about 9.85% per year over the last three years.

NNN Asset investments (Get Realy Real) are based on leases agreed to by large companies to pay rent over a fixed period of time. These rent payments and dividends do not fluctuate with the daily ups and downs of the stock market.

As with all investments, past performance is no guarantee of future results.

Dividends, income to you, are accounted for monthly. You will be notified of your account status and dividend income earned on a monthly basis. You will be paid dividend income quarterly. You may choose to reinvest your dividend income or receive it as you wish.

You can close you account anytime you want if you are a Get Real (REIT shares) investor. If you are a NNN Asset (Get Realy Real) investor you are the owner of specific assets (example: a Panera Bread restaurant or a FedEx transshipment center) and can only close your account when that asset is sold and proceeds disbursed, usually when a new lease is signed in year nine or ten of the lease.

The NNN Assests are sold to our members at what’s called a market capitalization rate. This rate tells us what our return on our investment will be, year-to-year, based on the rent and terms of the lease. For example, a Starbucks restaurant will usually be sold to us at a capitalization rate (cap rate) of between 4% and 5%. This means that our Get Realy Real investors who own that Starbucks will be paid a 4-5% dividend income annually, posted to their account monthly and paid (or reinvested if they wish) quarterly.

As the lease matures, the rent usually increases. This higher rent rate will then be the basis for negotiating a new rent figure from the tenant (in the above example, Starbucks or another such restaurant) and RealyInvest will then sell the NNN Asset and distribute the proceeds, hopefully at a profit, aiming for a total return or 6-8% per year for our Get Realy Real investors.

Yes. It is possible to upgrade your status at any time. You may also downgrade your status. However, once you do you cannot upgrade again for a period of two years.

You can buy or sell REIT shares daily. The plan is to offer NNN Assets on a quarterly basis; that is four times a year. One half of the equity of any new NNN Asset will be reserved for existing RealyInvest members, and one half of the equity will be reserved for investors new to RealyInvest, depending on demand.

It only takes $5 to open and account. This enables you to begin buying portions of REIT shares as a Get Real member. You may then invest as much as you like in our selected REITS.

All initial investment in NNN Assests for new Get Realy Real members is $20. Subsequent investments by those individuals is a minimum of $100 for each new NNN Asset offered. Investments in any single NNN Asset offering in excess of $3,000 are subject to availability.

If you become inactive as a Get Real member, you can close your account if you desire. As a Get Realy Real investor your monthly fees are reduced to $.39 if no new asset is offered for a period of twelve months. If a new NNN Asset is then offered the monthly fee will return to its full amount.

As a Get Real investor, RealyInvest will close your account and attempt to collect delinquent fees. As a Get Realy Real investor, RealyInvest will sequester your dividends and, if necessary, close out your share interests and either offer them to another investor or keep them in reserve until all fees are made current, at RealyInvest’s sole discretion.

This is now a reality through the innovation of fractional share ownership. In the case of our Get Real investors (REIT shares) our clearing company, Apex Clearing, makes this possible. In the case of Get Realy Real (NNN Asset) investors, for the first time through RealyInvest, can also buy fractional ownership of an expensive asset in the same manner. Investment in this kind of high quality commercial real estate has never been available to new or small investors before RealyInvest’s innovative offerings and technology.

The risks for NNN Asset investors revolve around interest rates and lease renewal. In the event interest rates rise, cap rates generally are less favorable -- that is, RealyInvest will receive less money on the sale of the NNN Asset. It is also possible that if interest rates rise, rents will rise as well. This may balance out a less favorable cap rate with higher new rents on the NNN Asset, resulting in a higher sales price.

Additional risk involves the possibility that the premier tenant may not renew their lease. This will cause an interruption in rent payments while a new tenant is secured--and this new tenant may or may not bring the same rental income or potential sale price for the NNN Asset. RealyInvest seeks to minimize this risk by offering NNN Assets with the best tenants in the best locations. There is an old saying in real estate: The three most important aspects of real estate are location, location, location. This remains true today.

A dividend is a sum of money that a company pays out to its shareholders from profits or cash reserves, usually paid out quarterly.

A market capitalization rate or cap rate is a measure of the value the market places on a NNN Asset. Usually cap rates move up and down with interest rates. There are certain cap rates generally placed on certain types of NNN Assets. For example, a Chick-Fil-A restaurant is a desirable NNN Asset, so the cap rates are low. A shopping center with only local tenants, conversely, will be less desirable to investors and thus carry a higher cap rate. RealyInvest is committed to offering our investors the best possible real estate in the best possible locations.

Initially, fractional ownership or whole share ownership will be on a non-margin basis. That means you can buy as much stock as cash you want to commit to buying the shares.

RealyInvest plans to buy NNN Assets for cash, but reserves the right to leverage any given NNN Asset purchase to 50% of the required equity. Any debt placed on a NNN Asset is long-term with a fixed rate.

No, you do not have to buy additional REIT shares in the Get Real program. Nor do you have to buy additional interests in any given NNN Asset offerings. If you are a RealyAutomatic investor, however, you will be automatically included as a buyer for new NNN Asset offerings.

Also, each new NNN Asset offered will be posted so every current investor may review and select to buy into that new NNN Asset offering. RealTeam 6 investors will have a 6 day advance buying opportunity before the new offering will be available to any other buyers.

Please always remember that past performance is no guarantee of future results. REITs, over the last three years, have averaged 9.85%, which is in line with the 20 year average. This is according to Investopedia.

Investors should have a bedrock, solid foundation in their investments. REITs and NNN Assets are a great way to secure a solid investing foundation. Stocks, bonds and other alternative investments such as art or cryptocurrencies, depending on your risk tolerance and knowledge, can also be appropriate. The goal is to build, over time, a diversified investment portfolio.

Actually, your income will increase as the lease matures. For example, you buy a portion of a Starbucks at a 5% cap rate, that is a 5% dividend income paid to you. As the lease matures, the agreed rent paid by Starbucks corporation increases. This means that your dividend income will increase as well. Supposing a usual Starbucks NNN lease the rent rises by 10% every five years. Thus your dividend income in years 6-10 of the lease will increase from 5% to 5.5%. This also plays into increasing your total return when the NNN Asset is sold. This is the joy of being a landlord for a great company like Starbucks.
