The Shopoff Group Launches Progressive Real Estate Program For Select California Investors

    IRVINE, CA, March 26, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Shopoff Group, an Irvine, California based progressive real estate investment company, has expanded its dynamic platform of investment products with the release of its newest offering, Shopoff Commercial Income Fund. This distinctive program was designed for California residents seeking to take advantage of off-market and value-added opportunities primarily in Southern California and the San Francisco area.

"Shopoff Commercial Income Fund delivers what our clients and the marketplace have told us they want most in their real estate portfolios: California properties in core regions that may provide both monthly income and capital appreciation, sourced and managed by a tenured California based firm with a long term track record," said Bill Shopoff, founder and CEO of The Shopoff Group. "This fund presents features that are not available in some investments, including pass-through deprecation, the potential for institutional co-investment and assets in what we believe to be some of the preeminent markets in the country."

Shopoff Commercial Income Fund was designed in partnership with Courtlandt Financial Group, based on Courtlandt's knowledge of working with California intrastate public offerings and their experience in delivering investments to discerning California residents. Michael Cruz, Chairman and CEO of Courtlandt explained, "Designing and launching a public program is never a simple process. The requirements of the State of California, FINRA and other regulators are more stringent in a public offering. This necessitates that an issuer not only have the acumen to create the program, but the resources to see it through to what is anticipated to be a success conclusion. I am confident that the Shopoff-Courtlandt relationship meets and exceeds those conditions." Mr. Cruz added, "Bill Shopoff and I carefully and diligently approached our partnership to ensure that our high ethical and business standards were compatible, and that the platform we endeavored to bring to market would represent the quality and value that we both strive to provide to our clients."

Daniel Oschin, COO of The Shopoff Group noted, "Our relationship with Courtlandt has resulted in a program that we are proud of as a firm and that we believe will resonate with investors throughout our great state. Courtlandt has proven to be much more than just a distribution resource, but a true partner without whom developing this type of program would have been more challenging, expensive and time consuming."
