Investor FAQ
Common questions about EQS and apartment investing.
These answers are general and educational. The terms of any individual offering will be governed by its legal and offering documents.
What is EQS?+
EQS is a founder-led multifamily investment company that brings qualified investors together to pursue selected apartment investment opportunities in Greater Silicon Valley.
What types of properties does EQS target?+
EQS primarily focuses on value-add apartment properties, generally beginning with 5 to 20 units in Greater Silicon Valley. Actual acquisition criteria may vary with each opportunity.
How does EQS select a property?+
EQS evaluates location, existing operations, physical condition, comparable rents, renovation potential, financing, projected cash flow, downside scenarios, and possible exit strategies. A property proceeds only if the final review supports the investment plan.
Who may invest?+
EQS currently intends to focus on accredited investors. Eligibility depends on the structure and legal requirements of each offering and must be verified as required.
What is the anticipated minimum investment?+
The anticipated minimum is generally expected to begin at $200,000, but the actual minimum may vary by offering.
Is EQS a blind pool?+
EQS currently intends to offer property-specific opportunities rather than asking investors to commit to unidentified future assets. Investors may review each opportunity and decide whether to participate.
Will Rob invest in the same properties?+
Rob and EQS intend to invest alongside participating investors, subject to the final structure and terms of each offering.
What responsibilities will I have as a passive investor?+
Passive investors generally do not handle leasing, repairs, renovations, bookkeeping, or day-to-day property operations. Their rights and responsibilities are defined by the applicable operating agreement and offering documents.
How long will an investment be held?+
A typical anticipated hold period may be approximately three to five years. Actual timing may be shorter or longer depending on property performance, financing, market conditions, and the governing documents.
How often are distributions expected?+
The timing of any distributions will be described in each offering. Distributions depend on available cash after property expenses, reserves, debt service, and other obligations, and may be reduced, delayed, suspended, or never made.
What fees does EQS receive?+
Any acquisition, asset-management, financing, construction-management, disposition, property-management, or other compensation will be disclosed in the applicable offering documents. Investors should review all fees and potential conflicts before subscribing.
What reporting will investors receive?+
The intended reporting schedule and contents will be described for each offering. Updates may include operating results, material property developments, capital-project progress, distributions, and annual tax information.
Will investors receive tax documents?+
The expected tax reporting depends on the ownership structure of each investment. When applicable, investors may receive a Schedule K-1 or other tax documents. Timing and individual tax consequences can vary, so investors should consult their own tax advisers.
Are distributions or returns guaranteed?+
No. All investments involve risk, including the possible loss of some or all invested capital. Distributions, appreciation, refinancing, tax benefits, and profitable exits are not guaranteed.
Can I sell my investment whenever I want?+
Private real estate investments are generally illiquid. Transfer rights are typically limited by securities laws and governing documents, and there may be no market or buyer for an investor’s interest.
How do I get started?+
Join the EQS Investor List or attend the weekly investor webinar. Joining does not create an obligation to invest. Each opportunity will be presented separately with its own terms, documents, and risks.
