Investor Participation
JEMS loan criteria require a maximum 80% loan to value ratio. All of JEMS loans are
secured by a first mortgage. Interest rates are based on Prime with a four to eight point
spread, and JEMS charges borrowers a two to three point financing fee. Loan terms range
from 6 to 18 months. Investors in JEMS receive participation in a specific loan or loans and
have an interest in the mortgage proportionate to the amount they have invested versus the
total loan amount. Investor’s rate of return is consistent with the interest rate of the loan in
which they are participating. Financing fees are retained by JEMS as profit and overhead.
JEMS issues Participation Agreements to investors evidencing their investment in a specific
loan and investors will receive monthly interest payments as they are received from
borrowers. Principal will be returned to investors as loans are repaid or may be re-invested in
future loans.
