Generally speaking, our loans are from $2,000 to $10,000, depending on the veracity of the plan coupled with your expertise and experience. We are not a bank or financial institutions. We are just a pragmatic and entrepreneurial based small company, interested in helping you achieve your dream while being a good tenant.

Our goal is two fold, to help you start a business, and end up with tenants for our retail and commercial properties. Our retail property is located in the 7800 block of S cooper, which is on S Cooper almost to US287. (South of I20 and the Parks mall)

In order to qualify for consideration, you need 4 things, a good credit score (at least 620), a desire to be your own boss, the skills and experience to make it real, and some “skin in the game”. That may mean money, but doesn’t have to.

eady to start? Here is a rough outline of our process to get your going.

1. Email to jime@rdsinvestments.com a brief description of your concept, what YOU bring to the show, and what you expect to need. Also include any information you know about your credit history and score, and a snapshot of your experience and skills, and/or a resume for our review.
2. If it seems like it could be a good fit for both of us, we will ask you to fill out a credit application, and submit a more thorough business plan description of your business plan, and a small outline of your sales and expense projections/financial plan, for the first 2 years of operation.
3. If all that seems to be on track, we will ask you to come meet us for an interview, and to discuss where you might locate the business and space requirements. We will also work with you on refining your plan if required.
4. If all still seems well, we will approve a loan to get you started, and have you sign a lease for a space and get started.
