Crowdfunding is nothing new. In fact, America was built and
financed by crowdfunding. But in 1933 Congress passed the
Securities Act, which shut the door on this most democratic means
of raising capital and spreading wealth. In 2012, enjoying broad
bipartisan support, congress threw the doors open again, passing
the JOBS Act (Jumpstart Our Business Startups). Its intent was to
stimulate growth of small businesses and startups, but an
unexpected consequence of the Act was that the biggest beneficiary
has been the real estate industry. Researching the origins of the
JOBS Act, Dr. Adam Gower conducted a series of conversations with
the people who lobbied for and wrote the laws that became the Act.
What he discovered was that at no time had anyone thought that the
real estate industry was a relevant constituency. Perplexed by this
disconnect between what had been intended and what had happened, he
talked to those who had been the very first real estate people to
utilize the JOBS Act. These pioneers, all moving on parallel
tracks, seeded the biggest, most transformational change to the
real estate industry in history. This book uncovers these
conversations with the people who created the laws and those who
connected the dots to real estate. It weaves a thread through the
labyrinthine processes of government, chronicling how the Act was
conceived, formed, and ultimately signed into law, and it reveals
how the visionaries who have revolutionized real estate capital
formation embarked on their missions to change their industry
forever. Learn how the JOBS Act, never expected to benefit real
estate, has transformed the industry, changing the way capital is
raised and syndications are formed forever and how an unintended
consequence is helping almost everyone in America invest in real
estate like never before.
