U.S. Foreclosure Starts Increase 67 Percent From a Year Ago

ATTOM has released its Q3 2021 U.S. Foreclosure Market Report, which shows there were a total of 45,517 U.S. properties with foreclosure filings — default notices, scheduled auctions or bank repossessions — up 34 percent from the previous quarter and 68 percent from a year ago. The report also shows there were a total of 19,609 U.S. properties with foreclosure filings in September 2021, up 24 percent from the previous month and up 102 percent from September 2020. “Despite the increased level of foreclosure activity in September, we’re still far below historically normal numbers,” said Rick Sharga, executive vice president at

RealtyTrac, an ATTOM company. “September foreclosure actions were almost 70 percent lower than they were prior to the COVID-19 pandemic in September of 2019, and Q3 foreclosure activity was 60 percent lower than the same quarter that year. Even with similar increases in foreclosures over the next few months, we’ll end the year significantly below what we’d see in a normal housing market.” Foreclosure starts jump up nationwide Lenders started the foreclosure process on 25,209 U.S. properties in Q3 2021, up 32 percent from the previous quarter and up 67 percent from a year ago — the

Report: Strong Equity Stakes Alone May Not Be Enough to Stave Off Foreclosure Starts The Data & Analytics division of Black Knight, Inc. has released its latest Mortgage Monitor Report, based upon the company’s industry-leading mortgage, real estate and public records datasets. Given Black Knight’s recent analysis of the strong equity positions of borrowers in forbearance, even when adding 18 months of deferred payments to their debt loads, this month’s report explores the relationship between such equity positions and downstream foreclosure start rates and – ultimately – distressed liquidations. According to Black Knight Data & Analytics President Ben Graboske, the data suggests that the healthy stores of equity in the hands of homeowners currently in forbearance may not be sufficient on its own to ward off foreclosure activity. “An analysis of our McDash loan-level mortgage performance dataset back to 2007 shows that holding equity in one’s home might not be a blanket backstop to foreclosure activity,” said Graboske. “Borrowers with limited equity were much more likely to be referred to foreclosure during the early stages of the Great Recession than those with strong equity positions. But foreclosure start rates on homeowners who were 120 or more days past due have been relatively similar regardless of equity stakes from 2010 on, with borrowers in the strongest positions only slightly less likely to be referred to foreclosure. So, while we may see some variation in foreclosure activity based on the equity levels of borrowers who are unable to return to making payments post-forbearance, those with strong equity won’t necessarily be immune to foreclosure referral. “The same data also shows that borrowers with strong equity stakes are more than 40% less likely to face the involuntary liquidation of their homes than borrowers with weaker equity positions, limiting both potential losses on such mortgages and distressed inflow into the housing market. Still, even among borrowers with 40% equity stakes who are referred to foreclosure, some 30% in recent years have lost their

home to foreclosure sale, short sale, deed in lieu, etc. What the data doesn’t tell us is why so many people who could avoid involuntary liquidation by selling through traditional channels simply do not end up doing so. Whether that’s due to lack of understanding of their equity positions or the foreclosure process in general is unclear. But given the large number of high equity homeowners currently struggling to make their payments, this represents a significant challenge for the industry: how to educate struggling homeowners on the post-forbearance, foreclosure and – if needed – home sale processes, to limit unneeded stress on homeowners and the market alike.” However, the report also finds that the white-hot housing market, which has driven homeowner equity to record-breaking heights, is starting to show signs of cooling. According to the Black Knight HPI, annual home price growth slowed from an all-timehigh of 19.4% in July to 19% in August, marking the first decline seen in the rate of annual appreciation in 15 months. Daily tracking data from the company’s Collateral Analytics group suggests further cooling in September as well. Any slowdown in appreciation will likely be welcomed by potential homebuyers, who have seen the monthly payment required to purchase the average priced home with a 20% down 30year fixed rate mortgage increase by near-

ly 20% (+$210) over the first nine months of 2021.That brings the average monthly mortgage payment to its highest level since late 2007. It now requires 21.6% of the median household income to make the monthly mortgage payment on the average home purchase, making housing the least affordable it’s been since 30-year rates rose to nearly 5% back in late 2018. Since the Great Recession, home price growth has begun to slow when such payment-to-income ratios hit approximately 20.5% or higher, but low inventory levels in recent months have led to record home price growth even with tightening affordability. Any further rate increases – such as those seen in the week following the Federal Reserve’s announcement on tapering – will only exacerbate the affordability side of the equation. For example, should home prices and incomes hold steady, but interest rates rise to 3.5%, the average monthly payment would rise by more than $100 and home affordability would hit a 12-year low. At 4%, the payment-to-income ratio would climb above its pre-Great Recession (19952003) average. If rates climb back to 5% as in late 2018, it would require $380 (+29%) more per month to buy the average-priced home than it does today, with affordability reaching the lowest levels on record outside of the 2004-2008 period.

Nonresidential Construction Sector Posts First Job Gain Since March But Has Yet To Hit Pre-pandemic Levels The construction industry gained 22,000 jobs between August and September as nonresidential construction firms added employees for the first time in six months, according to an analysis by the Associated General Contractors of America of government data released today. Association officials said nonresidential construction has been affected by the widespread supply chain problems, which are causing owners already uncertain about future demand for commercial space to delay or even cancel some projects. “While it is refreshing to see job gains in both residential and nonresidential construction, nonresidential building and infrastructure employment remains far below its pre-pandemic peak,” said Ken Simonson, the association’s chief economist. “It will take more than a few months of gains to match the overall economy.” Construction employment in September totaled 7,447,000, an increase of 22,000 since August. However, industry employment remained 201,000 below the pre-pandemic peak set in February 2020. The nonresidential segment, comprising nonresidential building and specialty trade contractors plus heavy and civil engineering construction firms, added 18,600 employees in September. But nonresidential employment is 281,000 below the February 2020 level, as the sector has recovered only 56 percent of the jobs lost in the first two months of the pandemic. Residential construction--including building contractors such as homebuilders, along with residential specialty trades--added 3,600 employees in September. Residential employment tops the February 2020 mark by 80,000. Simonson cited an unending series of supply-chain bottlenecks, as well as extreme price increases and long lead times for a variety of construction mate-

rials, as threats to further growth of nonresidential construction. He said he had heard about an increasing number of project owners deciding to postpone projects because of excessive cost increases and lead times. He noted that the association has again updated its Construction Inflation Alert, a guide to inform owners, officials, and others about the cost and supply-chain challenges.

Association officials urged the Biden administration to remove tariffs and import quotas on a range of key construction materials to help address supply chain disruptions. They added that Congress can help offset declining nonresidential demand for construction by passing the bipartisan infrastructure bill that has already cleared the Senate.

“Both parties in the House should make passing the infrastructure bill a top priority because it is the best way to create new construction careers and make our economy more efficient,” said Stephen E. Sandherr, the association’s chief executive officer. “If the President acts to address supply chain problems and Congress passes the infrastructure bill, construction employment is likely to surge.”

Crescent Communities Names Brian Natwick as Chief Executive Officer

City of Charlotte Releases First Draft of the Unified Development Ordinance

Crescent Communities has announced the promotion of Brian Natwick to Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately. Natwick, a 15-year veteran of the company, previously served as President and Chief Operating Officer. Natwick succeeds Todd Mansfield, who has served as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer since 2011. Mansfield will continue as Chairman through the end of the year and then will serve as an advisor to Sumitomo Forestry America, Inc. Mansfield led the successful recapitalization of the Company with Sumitomo Forestry in 2018. “I am honored to take on this new role during a very exciting time for Crescent Communities,” said Natwick. “In addition to our multifamily, commercial and construction businesses, the organization has strategically entered the single-family build-to-rent market, mid-market multifamily market and begun an investment management business and I look forward to working with our extraordinary leadership to grow these new initiatives.” Natwick joined Crescent Communities in 2006 and served as President of the company’s multifamily business from 2011 to 2020, when he was named to President and Chief Operating Officer. During his time leading the Multifamily business line, he championed the creation of the NOVEL multifamily brand and extended the footprint of Crescent Communities to western markets including Phoenix, Dallas, Houston, Denver, and Salt Lake City. The organization’s investment portfolio now covers 14 strategic sunbelt markets with nine offices across the US. “Brian has repeatedly demonstrated the skills and qualities necessary to be successful in this role,” said Mansfield. “His leadership, investment acumen, and commitment to company values make him the ideal person to lead our company into the next phase of growth.” “Brian will be a great leader for this new chapter,” said Atsushi Iwasaki, President of Sumitomo Forestry America, Inc. “His efforts to launch new business lines while continuing to drive growth for existing business areas are crucial to the continued success of Crescent and Sumitomo Forestry Group.” Active in the community and industry, Natwick serves on the board of the McColl School of Business at Queens University and Apartment Life and is an active member of Young Presidents’ Organization (YPO), Urban Land Institute, National Multi Housing Council, and National Association of Home Builders. In addition, Natwick served on the board of directors for Habitat for Humanity of Charlotte, and formerly served as board chair for the organization. He graduated with highest honors from the University of Florida and earned an MBA from the McColl School of Business at Queens University. Crescent Communities continues to experience significant growth with nearly $5.7 billion of multifamily and commercial investments and developments currently under construction, operations and planning including 13,000 units of multifamily, 260,000 square feet of complimentary retail and 8.0 million square feet of office, industrial and life-sciences. With a focus on sustainable development practices, the organization pursues USGBC LEED certification for commercial spaces and NGBS certification for multifamily residences. Staff report

The Charlotte Planning, Design & Development Department has released the first draft of the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO). The UDO will update and combine into one document the regulations that guide growth and development in Charlotte. Specifically included are all ordinance requirements related to: Zoning. Streets, sidewalks and infrastructure. Trees. Drainage/stormwater. Subdivision. Floodplain. Soil erosion and sedimentation control. “The UDO is an important and exciting update to the current ordinances that were written at different times over the last 30 years,” Deputy Planning Director Alyson Craig said. “It’s an effort to consolidate the regulations and provide better predictability in the development process.” The UDO serves as a critical tool in implementing the community’s vision for growth, as set forth in the adopted Charlotte Future 2040 Comprehensive Plan. It expands how the city advances community priorities, including affordable housing, public open space, the environment, and support for small businesses and businesses owned by minorities and women. “I’m proud of the several years of work the Ordinance Advisory Committee has contributed to the first draft of Charlotte’s Unified Development Ordinance,” Ordinance Advisory Committee Chair and North Carolina Department of Transportation Board Member Tony Lathrop said. “We’ve had a high level of committee engagement in a very inclusive and transparent process that has involved neighborhood leaders, developers, designers and community leaders. I’m thrilled to see the result and thank all involved for their hard work.” City Seeks Continued Community Input The community is invited to review the draft UDO on charlotteudo.org and provide feedback on the proposed regulations at upcoming engagement sessions. “I encourage everyone to remain engaged, and to review and share input on the draft,” said Mayor Vi Lyles. “As the work on the city’s first Unified Development Ordinance continues in the months ahead, please ensure your voice is heard.” Community members can learn more about the UDO and share their input online at charlotteudo.org.

Crescent Announces New Multifamily Community in University City Crescent Communities is pleased to announce the construction of a new multifamily community in center of Northeast Charlotte’s University City submarket. NOVEL University Place by Crescent Communities, located at the intersection of J.W. Clay and W.T.

Harris Blvd, will include 311 for-rent residences and act as the residential anchor for the planned mixeduse redevelopment known as Waters Edge. This marks the 4th investment in the University area by Crescent Communities and their 13th multifamily investment in the Charlotte market. “We have been looking forward to breaking ground on NOVEL University Place and are thrilled to have the opportunity to create a new center of activity for this growing and reimagined neighborhood,” said Michael Tubridy, Managing Director of Multifamily Development for the Carolinas and Tennessee at Crescent Communities. “The redevelopment of University Place will be the catalyst for the long overdue creation of a walkable, vibrant, urban core in the University area of Charlotte.” Crescent Communities and financial partner Goldman Sachs purchased the land in October 2021 with construction financing provided by Synovus Bank. EB Arrow commenced site work during the summer of 2021, and Crescent Communities expects to start construction of the residential buildings following land acquisition and deliver first units in early 2023. “The Waters Edge development is destined to be the new hub of Northeast Charlotte, and NOVEL University Place will be located in the middle of all the excitement and energy that the new plaza, library, retail, and office will bring to the lakefront,” said Greg Watson of EB Arrow. As part of the Waters Edge master redevelopment plan, NOVEL University Place will be a surface-parked apartment community and consist of four buildings, each with three to five floors, as well as three carriage buildings with tuck-under garages. It will feature a mix of 311 studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom residences complete with lake views and luxury finishes. The architecture for NOVEL University Place will take cues from classic Southern waterfront cities like Savannah and Charleston. With an enviable location boasting easy access to the refurbished waterfront park and path, miles of existing greenway trails, and Fortune 500 employers, this vibrant, walkable development will breathe new life into University City and provide a community space where residents, office workers, and community members can come together to enjoy convenience, luxury, and connectivity. Design partners include architecture firms Cline Design Associates (Crescent’s multifamily), Gensler (EB Arrow’s office) and KTGY, civil engineer LandDesign, and interior designer BB+M. NOVEL University Place will offer residents a host of amenities including a resort-style pool and cabana overlooking the lake, a multi-level covered patio with indoor and outdoor gathering space, pocket gardens, dog park, outdoor and indoor spaces to work from home, as well as outdoor fitness space and a two-level fitness center. The community will feature an open outdoor plaza designed to be closed to traffic for festivals and community gatherings. While Crescent Communities will include the amenities that today’s residents expect, perhaps the most notable amenity is the convenience offered by the dynamic master planned community, providing a true live, work, play experience further enhanced by connectivity to University City, the Research Park, and beyond, through the extensive network of walking trails, greenways, and easy access to the Lynx light rail.

AtWork What It Takes To Break Out Of The 9-to-5 Rut Q: I grew up knowing I would have to work to support myself. I have no problems with that. I have a college degree, and I interview well and get the jobs I want. What haunts me is the feeling I should find what motivates me; I don’t know that I have a passion for anything regarding work. I have done well in my different jobs, and I know I have a strong work ethic. I am not motivated by money, but I want to make enough money to live on; I’d rather not get trapped in a materialistic lifestyle. I have had hobbies such as painting, jewelry design and sewing, but I don’t know if I can turn any of those interests into a business. Where do I begin? A: No one can force a passion into a business. Some people just know immediately what inspires them. For example, some people may work in regular jobs where they feel accepted but not driven to achieve extraordinary goals. In their spare time, though, they may be passionate about saving animals, which might motivate them to volunteer with an animal rescue organization. Volunteering is a great way to see how an agency is managed, to watch the procedures and see what works or doesn’t work, to meet the people in the lead roles and paid positions, and to take note of the organization’s politics. Yes, there are politics in every for-profit and nonprofit. Where humans are at work, there are politics, so this aspect is important to observe. As you get to know the agency and its operations, it becomes

easier to see if it would be a good fit to switch into when a paid position opens. Becoming familiar with a charity may also lead to recognizing where an additional position could add value to the organization. A written proposal can be submitted for consideration to the board of directors. This type of formal process may be required in larger agencies, but your passion could arise from the mere creation of the new position.

You could turn each of your hobbies into a business if your products are appealing and sell through word of mouth. Whether you knit baby-buggy blankets or design leather bikini belts featuring natural semiprecious stones to cover the belly button, the target audience for your products will ultimately determine your success. Once the product becomes popular, you can sell it online or through a merchandiser.

There is no right way or wrong way to create and market a product. Take care to not tell friends (and sometimes family members) about your business plans, as friends have their own agendas in mind, and friends remain friends only if jealousy doesn’t enter the relationship. Entrepreneurs have followed many different roads to success. Some families are emotionally and financially supportive. Some people have no support and still succeed. And sometimes a person’s original business goals change in the process. Tony Robbins and Dean Graziosi didn’t set out to be millionaires. A business may or may not catch on. Since you are not driven by money, focus on your hobbies and have a waitand-see attitude about what develops. If one activity doesn’t excite you, drop it and begin another one. By keeping your plans secret, no one will be able to encourage or discourage you, and your choices will be your creations alone. When and if a product becomes outrageously popular, you can happily leave your regular job for your passion, and the success will be all yours. Email career and life coach: Lindsey@ LindseyNovak.com.

Stocks Sink as Omicron, Rate Worries Rattle Wall Street

ing due to concerns about how badly the fast-spreading omicron variant of the coronavirus may hit the global economy. The CEO of Moderna predicted existing COVID-19 vaccines will be less effective with omicron than earlier variants, he said in an interview with the Financial Times. Regeneron also said Tuesday that its monoclonal antibody treatment may have reduced effectiveness on omicron. Much is left to be determined about the variant, including how much damage it will do the global economy by slowing down already gummed-up supply chains or scaring people away from stores. The uncertainty has sent Wall Street through jagged upand-down jolts as governments tightened restrictions in hopes of slowing its spread. The S&P 500 sank 2.3% Friday for its

worst loss for February, only to rise 1.3% Monday as investors reconsidered whether the reaction was overdone. Tuesday’s loss for the market has the S&P 500 on pace for one of its 10 worst days of the year. One measure of nervousness in the stock market jumped 20%, nearing its level from Friday, when it touched its highest point since March. Much of the rise occurred after Powell began speaking. Gold usually does well when fear among investors is rising, but its price flipped from a gain to a loss of 0.5%. Higher interest rates could reduce the appeal of gold, which doesn’t pay its holders any interest. Crude oil prices slid with concerns that a global economy weakened by omicron would burn less fuel. Benchmark U.S. crude dropped 7.2% to $64.90 per barrel and

touched its lowest level in three months. Brent crude, the international standard, fell 6%. If omicron does ultimately do heavy damage to the global economy, it could put the Federal Reserve in a difficult spot. Usually, the central bank will lower interest rates, which encourages borrowers to spend more and investors to pay higher prices for stocks. But low rates can also encourage inflation, which is already high across the global economy. Powell acknowledged in his testiony before Congress that inflation has been worse and lasted longer than the Fed expected. For months, officials described inflation as only “transitory,” but Powell said that word no longer works. The subsequent losses for stocks Tuesday were widespread, with more than 95% of the big stocks in the S&P 500 lower. Smaller stocks fell even more, with the Russell 2000 index down 2.6%. Investors typically see them getting hurt more than their larger rivals by both higher interest rates and by a weaker U.S. economy. One signal in the bond market was also flashing some concern about the economy’s prospects. Longer-term Treasurys usually offer higher yields than shorter-term Treasurys, in part to make up for the increased risk that future inflation will eat into their returns. A 10-year Treasury is still offering more in yield than a two-year Treasury, but the gap narrowed sharply on Tuesday. The twoyear yield rose to 0.52% from 0.51% late Monday. The 10-year yield, though, fell to 1.44% from 1.52%. Many investors see that narrowed gap as meaning the bond market has less confidence in the economy’s longterm strength. If it were to flip, with shortterm yields rising above long-term yields, many investors see that as a semi-reliable predictor of a recession.

“So far the government and the mortgage industry have worked together to do an extraordinary job of preventing millions of unnecessary foreclosures using the foreclosure moratorium and mortgage forbearance program,” Sharga added. “But there are hundreds of thousands of borrowers scheduled to exit forbearance in the next two months, and it’s possible that we might see a higher percentage of those borrowers default on their loans.” Highest foreclosure rates in Nevada, Illinois and Delaware Nationwide one in every 3,019 properties had a foreclosure filing in Q3 2021. States with the highest foreclosure rates in Q3 2021 were Nevada (one in every 1,463 housing units with a foreclosure filing); Illinois (one in every 1,465); Delaware (one in every 1,515); New Jersey (one in every 1,667); and Florida (one in every 1,743). Among 220 metropolitan statistical areas analyzed in the report, those with the highest foreclosure rates in Q3 2021 were Atlantic City, New Jersey (one in every 709 housing units with a foreclosure filing); Peoria, Illinois (one in every 754); Bakersfield, CA (one in every 923); Cleve-

land, Ohio (one in every 936); and Las Vegas, Nevada (one in every 1,167). Bank repossessions increase nationwide Lenders repossessed 7,574 U.S. properties through foreclosure (REO) in Q3 2021, up 22 percent from the previous quarter and up 46 percent from a year ago the first quarterly increase since Q1 2016. States that posted the largest number of completed foreclosures in Q3 2021, included Illinois (965 REOs); Florida (564 REOs); Pennsylvania (480 REOs); Michigan (401 REOs); and New York (370 REOs). Average time to foreclose increases 11 percent from last year Properties foreclosed in Q3 2021 had been in the foreclosure process an average of 924 days, up slightly from 922 days in the previous quarter but up 11 percent from 830 days in Q3 2020. States with the longest average foreclosure timelines for homes foreclosed in Q3 2021 were Hawaii (2,070 days); Nevada (1,989 days); Kansas (1,901 days); New York (1,659 days); and Washington (1,611 days).

States with the shortest average foreclosure timelines for homes foreclosed in Q3 2021 were Montana (94 days); Wyoming (102 days); Mississippi (133 days); Missouri (213 days); and Virginia (272 days). September 2021 Foreclosure Activity High-Level Takeaways Nationwide in September 2021 one in every 7,008 properties had a foreclosure filing. States with the highest foreclosure rates in September 2021 were Florida (one in every 3,276 housing units with a foreclosure filing); Illinois (one in every 3,508 housing units); Delaware (one in every 3,834 housing units); Nevada (one in every 4,009 housing units); and New Jersey (one in every 4,487 housing units). 10,289 U.S. properties started the foreclosure process in September 2021, up 23 percent from the previous month and up 106 percent from a year ago. Lenders completed the foreclosure process on 2,682 U.S. properties in September 2021, up 8 percent from the previous month and up 33 percent from a year ago. Staff report

BY DAMIAN J. TROISE AND STAN CHOE AP BUSINESS WRITERS NEW YORK (AP) — Already unnerved by the newest coronavirus variant, Wall Street’s losses deepened on Tuesday after the head of the Federal Reserve said it will consider shutting off its support for financial markets sooner than expected. The S&P 500 was 1.8% lower in afternoon trading after Fed Chair Jerome Powell told Congress the central bank may halt the billions of dollars of bond purchases it’s making every month “perhaps a few months sooner.” It had been on pace to wrap up the purchases, meant to goose the economy by lowering rates for mortgages and other long-term loans, in June. An end to the purchases would open the door for the Fed to raise short-term interest rates from their record low of nearly zero, diluting one of the main propellants that’s sent stocks to record heights. Short-term Treasury yields almost immediately flipped from losses to gains following Powell’s remarks, as investors moved up their expectations for the Fed’s first rate hike. Losses for stocks accelerated, with the drop for the Dow Jones Industrial Average more than tripling in half an hour. It was down 656 points, or 1.9%, at 34,479, as of 1 p.m. Eastern.

MoneyHunt A Securities Law Primer for Startups: Part 1 of 2 Q. “Some friends of mine and I are forming a limited liability company (LLC) to develop and market a mobile phone software application (app). There are 12 of us in total, and we live in three different states. Five of us will be developing the product in our spare time without putting in any money. Three of us just want to put in money without getting involved in running the company, while the remaining four will be putting in money as well as doing some consulting work to develop and market the product. Our lawyer has told us we will have problems setting up this company because of the federal securities laws. Say what? We’re only looking to raise about $25,000.” When people think of the securities laws, they think of big companies that are “going public” through an initial public offering. But even startups have to worry about securities law compliance, and this email is a classic example of how NOT to structure a startup without securities law issues. Both the federal government and the states regulate the issue of “securities.” Technically, a “security” is any sort of investment (debt or equity), with a number of exceptions and conditions that vary from state to state. A membership interest in an LLC, especially one in which the investor will not be involved in the day-to-day operations of the business, will almost certainly be considered a “security.” A. Generally, whenever you make an offering of securities, you have to file documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission at the federal level and the state securities commissioner at the state level. Those documents would include a prospectus and a registration

statement (at the federal level, it’s SEC Form S-1). This is a time-consuming, expensive and extremely painful process, and most early-stage companies don’t go through it until they are ready for their IPO. There are numerous exemptions to the registration requirement at both the federal and state level, and the goal for any startup is to shoehorn its offering into as many of these exemptions as possible so that if it loses one, it can fall back on another. The most commonly relied-upon exemptions for startups are: Section 4(6) of the Securities Act of 1933 and SEC Rule 504: Under this exemption, you can offer and sell up to $1 million in securities during a rolling 12-month period without having to register with the SEC at the federal level. The states, however, frequently impose additional restrictions on this exemption. For example, in some states you may have to complete and file a document (called Form D) with the state securities commissioner’s office and pay a filing fee. Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and SEC Rule 506: Under this exemption, you can offer and sell as many securities as you want without having to register, as long as the people purchasing them are “accredited investors” (highly sophisticated and/ or rich individuals who meet certain statutory qualifications). Under SEC Rule 506, you are also allowed up to 35 “nonaccredited investors” (anyone other than “accredited investors”), including company founders who don’t pay for their shares. A number of states have imposed further restrictions on this exemption (for example, not more than 10 of the 35 nonaccredited investors may be residents of the state).

“De Minimis” Offerings: In every state, there is a “de minimis” exemption saying you don’t have to register at the state level as long as the total number of purchasers or offerees during a rolling 12-month period is less than X. Sometimes the X is limited to residents of the state; sometimes the X is all purchasers in the offering. Whenever you bring on board investors in other states, someone has to check the state securities laws of that state to make sure you qualify for the Rule 504, 506 or “de minimis” offering in that state (this is referred to as “blue-skying” the offering). Since your investors live in three different states, your attorney will need to research the state securities laws in each state to make sure your offering will be exempt in all three states. Is your head spinning yet? I wouldn’t be surprised; this is complicated stuff with no easy answers. Most attorneys who do this type of work charge $5,000 or more because it is tedious, time-con-

suming and highly risky. (When an investor decides he’s made a bad deal, the first thing he does is sue the lawyers and accountants who gave the green light to the deal.) Many otherwise competent business attorneys will not advise you at all on securities law questions because they cannot afford the exorbitant premiums for “securities coverage” under their malpractice insurance policies. So, what’s the right way to structure a startup so as to avoid securities law problems? The answer ... next week.
