EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This Private Placement Memorandum (“PPM”) is to offer investors equity shares in
aggregate purchase price of $388,500 of Fang Real Estate Investments, LLC, (“FREI LLC”) which
was founded in 2013 by the Chief Executive Officer, Brian Fang, in Washington, D.C. This PPM
describes Fang Real Estate Investments, LLC offering, use of proceeds, description of acquisition
and value add, description of revenue and operating costs, description of use of debt and
related interest costs, description of exit strategy and sale accounting, potential risks, capital
structure, cash flow, finance summary, and finance statements.
Fang Real Estate Investments, LLC is a startup investment company seeking to purchase
single family residential in Washington, D.C, particularly in the district of Georgetown.
Currently, FREI LLC’s first key project is to purchase the single family home on 1213 29th St. NW,
Washington, D.C, 20007, operate and renovate the property, lease the property into two
separate leases (2 bedroom, 2 bath and 1 bedroom, 1 bath), and sell the single family
residential property for profit. This property is located in heart of Georgetown with a walk score
of 97/100, which means that this property is located in an area nearby amenities. FREI LLC is
offering 388,500 shares at $1 per share, which is 30% equity of the company.
Forming a Limited Liability Company is the best option for FREI LLC because it is
financially and economically feasible given the asking price of the property by the seller as well
as our assumptions in the pro forma statements. This is a great opportunity for FREI LCC to
acquire this property, renovate, add value, and flip it for profit.

*Side note: After looking at the balance sheet and cash flow statement and seeing that I have
negative cash amounts, it was necessary for the purpose of this project to inject $100,000 of
working capital from my own pockets to create positive ending cash. Because the balance sheet
and cash flow statement shows the company is bankrupt before the injection of $100,000, as
an investor looking into this company, I would not invest in this company. With that being said,
for the project purposes, the $100,000 of working capital is necessary and must be
implemented into FREI LLC for the company to stay alive during the beginning period.

DESCRIPTION OF OFFERING
Offering: $388,500 – 388,500 shares @ $1 per share
The offering for sale of Fang Real Estate Investment, LLC is 388,500 equity shares of the
business at $1 per share. Total purchase price in aggregate of the offering is $388,500. Each
share is valued at $1 per share determined by the CEO, Brian Fang, with a minimum purchase of
194,250 shares. Currently, FREI LLC is solely owned by the founder and CEO, Brian Fang. With
potential investors investing into FREI LLC, each investor will hold ownership directly
proportional to their investment into the company and cannot exceed ownership of 49.9%.
FREI LLC is targeting two investors, to support the founder, with a minimum of two years
of investments. Looking at the two year pro forma statement, FREI needs $388,500 (30% equity
financing) between the two investors. The remaining investments will be financed through debt
of $777,000 (60% debt) and founder’s equity of $229,500 (17.7% equity).
Investors may maintain their ownership in the company as long as they desire, but
investors may not withdraw their initial investment within two years. FREI LLC will distribute
earnings to members after the initial two year investment. After two years the investors may
leave, but the investors who stay with the company will receive a percentage of the company’s
profits based on their percentage of ownership.

USE OF PROCEEDS
Fang Real Estate Investments, LLC will use the proceeds from the offering towards the
purchase of the residential property at 1213 29th St. NW, Washington, D.C, 20007. The company
will receive $388,500 from the proceeds and $74,666 will be used for capital expenditures. The
rest of the proceeds will be used for closing costs ($38,850), finance cost ($7,770), Interest
Expense Cost ($26,273) and operating costs ($27,107). That will leave a remainder of $240,941
of the proceeds which FREI LLC would put the money into purchasing the single family house.
To cover the balance of purchasing the home, future operating expenses, tax expenses, and
interest expense costs by FREI LLC, the company plans to borrow $777,000 from East West
Bank at an interest rate of 7%.

DESCRIPTION OF THE ACQUISITION AND VALUE ADD
Fang Real Estate Investments, LLC have acquired single family residential property at
1213 29th St. NW, Washington, D.C, 20007 as well as a company vehicle. The value add
proposition for this property is to renovate the three bathrooms on each floor by adding new
flooring and cabinets. Also, to increase value to the property, FREI LLC decided to renovate the
kitchen completely, turning the outdated kitchen into a modern, more tasteful kitchen.
Currently, within the house, there are three old wood-burning fireplaces that are not in use and
bricks are falling out. Our idea is to replace these fireplaces completely with a more modern
fireplace that would complement the wood flooring and the modernized kitchen. For the
bedrooms on the top floor, we have decided to turn the wood flooring into carpet. One of the
big value add is to completely renovate the basement floor of the house. The living room,
kitchen, and bedroom is very outdated so to add value, FREI LLC decided to modernize the
kitchen with granite countertops and cabinets, take out the old carpets for the living room and
replace it with wood flooring, and add quality carpeting for the bedroom. The basement is an
important value add because FREI LLC is planning to lease out the basement separately from
the top two floors, generating two rental revenues. Lastly, one big value add is to remodel the
backyard by adding new high quality redwood fence and by replacing the old bricks with a new
high end concrete patio. This will greatly improve the value of the property in the long run.
Pictures of the whole property before renovation is located in Appendix A.
This renovation period would be done within the first three months of acquiring the
property. During this time, it is also crucial for the marketing team to find tenants immediately
after the three months renovation period so we don’t lose any rental revenue. The value add
6
FANG REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS, LLCMarch 24, 2014
can be recouped when all the renovations is complete and the house is eventually sold for
profit. This value add is important because it is increasing the value of the property which will
then create profit for the investors.
To summarize, the value add is categorized in three major asset categories: building,
improvements, and furniture and fixtures. For building, the new painting for the interior will
add value to the building. For improvements, fireplaces, vinyl flooring for the bathrooms,
carpeting for the bedrooms, wood floor for the basement, granite countertops for the kitchen,
and also the backyard with the fence and the concrete patio. For furniture and fixtures, FREI LLC
decided to replace all the cabinets, microwaves, sinks, dishwasher, oven, washer and dryer,
refrigerator, and radiators. Detailed value add and the related costs is located in Appendix A.
DESCRIPTION OF REVENUE AND OPERATING COSTS

The table below shows the revenue and operating costs for Fang Real Estate Investments, LLC.
Revenue and Operating Costs 2014 2015Revenue 78,000$ 79,560$ Operating Expenses 27,107$ 27,649$ Depreciation Expense 41,793$ 41,793$ Interest Expense 61,110$ 61,110$ Net Income or loss (74,435)$ (64,970)$
DESCRIPTION OF USE OF DEBT AND RELATED INTEREST COSTS
Fang Real Estate Investments, LLC will take out two loans: Senior mortgage loan and the
commercial loan for the capital expenditures. The senior mortgage loan is an interest only loan
that has a 7% interest rate which means with the $777,000 loan borrowed from East West
Bank, the company will have to pay $54,390 annually. The commercial loan (interest only) has a
9% interest which means the $74,666 loan borrowed for capital expenditures will have an
annual interest pay of $6,720. The strategy for FREI LLC is to use the proceeds from the
investors to pay off our commercial loan within the first month or before the renovation period
(3 months) which will save the company $6,720 a year.
DESCRIPTION OF THE EXIT STRATEGY AND SALE ACCOUNTING
Exit Strategy:

FANG REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS, LLCMarch 24, 2014
Fang Real Estate Investments, LLC is planning on selling the property at 1213 29th St. NW,
Washington, D.C, 20007 at the end of year 10 for a total gain of $708,871. We are planning to
sell this property to our Chinese clients that are in the United States or oversees. Georgetown
district is very well known globally, and with our connections and expertise, FREI, LLC should be
able to sell the property after 10 years for a gain. We held it for 10 years because our property
started to project positive free cash flow starting year 5. From year 5 to the end of year 10 the
property generated positive free cash flow each year. It was in the best interest of all the
members of FREI, LLC to sell this property at the end of year 10.

Fang Real Estate Investments, LLC
To find the sale proceeds, one must calculate gross sales price, sales expense, and
principal repay. The sum of these three equals sale proceeds. To find less: Cost of Sales, use
calculation: (gross sales price X the sales expense percentage (in our case, 3%). To find less:
NBV, use calculation: (annual depreciation of the building X sale period (in our case, 10 years).
To find gain or loss, use this calculation (Sale proceeds – Less: NBV = gain or loss).
Side note: X = multiply

RISKS
Fang Real Estate Investments, LLC understands the importance in identifying and managing the
risks associated with real estate in the Washington DC market. Below are the different risks
involved with the project.
Market risksWashington DC real estate market is relatively stable compared to the nation, but the
value specifically in the Georgetown market can sometimes plummet unexpectedly. Looking at
the comparable to the property, a few properties has deducted from their asking price.
Although this is true, with the renovation to the property and great marketing, there will not be
any deduction from our sale price when we eventually sell it.
Funding RisksAlthough East West Bank has guaranteed $777,000 debt issuance, they can potentially
terminate the contract if FREI, LLC cannot find investors that are willing to invest the minimum
$194,250. If the company cannot receive such investments, the company will definitely go
bankrupt.
Company RisksSince FREI LLC is a startup, it might be difficult to compete against bigger companies that
have already established themselves into this market. Also, many terms negotiated with
acquisition and disposition can be unfavorable to the company which can cost the company
more money per project. The company members would have to build relationships quickly
within this market so we can compete with the bigger companies.
Project RisksOne project risk that can potentially happen is the asking price of the property located
at 1213 29th St. NW, Washington, D.C, 20007. The asking price can potentially be increased due
11
FANG REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS, LLCMarch 24, 2014
to many different reasons, which will be harmful to the company. More money needed for the
acquisition means that the company would have to find more investors and raise equity.
Another project risk is the renovation project. This is a risk because during this process there
will be many unknowns. Many unforeseen costs can incur due to hazardous material or
structural improvements. Another risk might be vacancy and tenants. The company must find
the right tenants to live in the house. Management must be attentive and ask for rents to be
due on time. Also, the marketing team must market the property strategically when tenants
leases are about to expire. Turnover is crucial and by having low turnover, it will help the
company not lose any money due to vacancy.
12
FANG REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS, LLCMarch 24, 2014
CAPITAL STRUCTURE
The capital structure for Fang Real Estate Investments, LLC before offering would be
17.7% equity and 90% debt. This would mean the founder, Brian Fang, would put in an initial
$229,500 of equity to obtain an initial debt issuance from East West Bank for $1,165,500.
Assuming the offering generates $338,500 from investors, East West Bank has guaranteed
$777,000 in debt at an interest rate of 7%. This then will create a new capital structure of 47.7%
equity ($618,000) and 60% debt ($777,000).

CASH FLOW ANALYSIS
Operations:
Fang Real Estate Investments, LLC’s only source of cash is rent payments received on the
leased property. Since the company split the property into two separate leases, there should be
more revenue incoming compared to renting out the property in one lease. Cash from the
operations is deployed to cover operating expenses or put back into the company for future
investments.
Investing:
Fang Real Estate Investments, LLC’s revenue for investing is generated from the sale of
the renovated property and the sale of the company car. Our total cash from investing in year
one is negative due to the acquiring of the building, land, purchase of improvements, purchase
of furniture and fixture, and the purchase of the company car. For year two, our total cash from
investing is positive because we sold our car for $15,000 and have already acquired the
property, purchased the improvements, and purchased the furniture and fixture. Future
investment activities will be voted on by FREI LLC’s founder and the new investors.
Financing:
Fang Real Estate Investments, LLC’s cash flows from financing will show proceeds
from member’s capital, founder’s equity, and debt issued by East West Bank. From the use of
the proceeds, $74,666 out of the $388,500 will be used to pay off the commercial loan and the
rest will be used to pay off operating expenses, financing costs, closing costs, and to acquire the
property.
