Yeah... In our best-case scenario, we scale as quickly as possible to get to 100 of those structures (1-5 per state), then package up this $30m/year 80% profitable business and sell to investors for $200m before competitors copy us too much and lower prices. I would give this scenario a 2% chance of actually happening, but we will do everything possible to get there :)

So far it seems like private investors are the best next step.[/quote]how much of the potential $200m do you think the private investors will require?[/quote]

If we give up half the company now (49%) for a $4m investment - it will give us 6 new structures in 12 months. Then, we can refinance all 7 with a business appraisal that takes the profits into account. Ideally, that ($5m) + income from 7 ($2m) would give us enough to do another set of 10-12 new properties, without further dilution. Rinse & repeat. So 1 -> 7 -> 18 -> 40 -> 86 -> 150+ = sell
Obviously wishful thinking, rosy glasses, etc. But it's not in the realm of the impossible.[/quote]
