Track record
Current projects
Three projects already underway. Each one is set up using the same investment process to mitigate risks.
Representative imageA house with more land than it needs. We're renovating the home and splitting the extra land into new lots.
The renovated house alone covers what we paid for the whole property.
Every lot we split off is profit on top.
Representative imageOne house with extra acreage. We're shifting the house to the side and adding a road in back to open up several new lots.
The city has already granted initial approval. We're finalizing the design details now.
Splitting one property into several approved lots multiplies what the land is worth.
Representative image15 acres of open land next to an established neighborhood, becoming a new subdivision.
We only buy each lot once it's approved. If a lot isn't approved, we don't pay for it.
We're talking with builders about pre-selling the lots, so buyers are ready when approvals land.

Our vision
We believe every family in America deserves a home. Investing with us puts your money behind the homes this country needs.
The fund thesis
The Diversified Income Fund (Shepherd Fund 1) spreads your money across several projects. We usually tie each one up under contract first, then follow the same 8-step process every time.
You get paid monthly. We also send updates every month, and you have a dedicated rep if you have any questions.
Our competitive advantages
We control projects with contracts that let us walk away if something fails a check we can't fix, so less money is at risk while approvals move forward.
A 100% entitlement record. We read the code and work with planning offices before we make an offer, which is where most of the value is created.
We track prices, permits, jobs, migration and fund raises across the country, so we see where growth is heading before we get there.
A project's life
Sometimes it's raw land. Sometimes it's a single house we take down to build 20 homes. Either way, the path is the same.
Towns in the path of growth, where jobs and people are heading.
Learn exactly how many homes the rules allow on a property.
Land or a house with more potential, tied up under contract.
Work with the city until the new lots or units are legally approved.
Sell to a builder or build it ourselves, return capital, and start the next one.
From our current investors
“The investment process is so easy. I roll all my distributions back into the fund. Getting updates is simple, and I always stay in the loop.”
“Investing in the fund beats all my other retirement accounts, and it's a lot easier than doing these projects myself. I wish I'd known about this sooner.”
“Working with you guys is so easy. I was watching one of your updates and my dad asked if he can join the next one. I've recommended this to all my friends. It's been great.”
