The Problem with Creative Financing with Vena Jones-Cox
OPHP Credits: 1.5 hours, Financing [What's This?]
Our focus groups exist because we believe that serious investors deserve access to serious information.
Usually, they’re for members only, but this month, we’re opening the Creative Finance Focus Group to everyone, free of charge… because the topic matters that much.
Here's the problem with creative financing: it works. Seller carrybacks, subject-to purchases, equity sharing, private loans—all of it can be genuinely powerful.
But a lot of investors are so busy being great deal-structurers that they never bother to learn how to protect themselves once the deal is done. And that's when things go sideways.
Vena Jones-Cox did her first creative finance deal in 1990. She's done hundreds—of every type you can imagine—since.
But more importantly, she's studied what goes wrong—not in theory, but in real deals, with real people, over decades.
And now she’s going to share the common ways that creative finance deals go sideways—like, money-losing, lawsuit-producing, default-creating wrong:
- Wrong evaluation—why investors miscalculate the risk in long-term deals
- Wrong people—how to spot the sellers, partners, and borrowers who will cause you problems
- Wrong paperwork—the documentation mistakes that leave you exposed
- Wrong structure—how deals that look good on paper fall apart in practice
- And more—from pure options to equity sharing loans and everything in between
Whether you're brand new to creative finance, or you've done dozens of these deals, you'll leave with a clearer, sharper understanding of how to do them right.
Members and non-members at every level of experience are welcome.
Pricing: FREE for everyone—members and non-members alike, this month only.
