-
What types of investments do you offer?
We focus on private market opportunities—primarily private equity and other alternative investments—curated for income, growth, or balanced outcomes. Each deal goes through a strict due-diligence process before we present it to clients.
-
Who can invest with Investor First?
Most offerings are for accredited investors under U.S. securities regulations. If you’re unsure about your accreditation status, we’ll walk you through a quick checklist to confirm eligibility.
-
What are the typical minimums and fees?
Minimums vary by deal (often $25k–$100k+), and fees depend on the structure (e.g., SPV, fund, or direct). We disclose all fees up front—no surprises—and align incentives so we win when you win.
-
What are the risks and liquidity expectations?
Private investments can be illiquid and carry higher risk than public markets. We help you understand timelines, risk factors, and exit scenarios so each allocation fits your portfolio and cash-flow needs.
-
How does due diligence work?
We evaluate sponsors, financials, track records, incentives, downside protection, and third-party audits/assumptions where available. You’ll receive a clear summary and primary documents so you can make an informed decision.
-
When do investors receive updates and distributions?
You’ll get regular reporting (typically quarterly) plus material event updates. Distributions, if applicable, follow the deal’s operating plan; we outline expected cadence before you commit.

How do I get started?
Book a 15-minute discovery call, share your goals and constraints, and complete a brief investor profile. From there, we propose deals that fit your objectives—and move at your pace, with full transparency.

What if I'm a capital raiser? Do you guys invest or can you help us invest?
