Village Investor Due Diligence Checklist

Provided to me by an accredited investor

The pace of my life has been more short-of-breath than usual. I've been busy doing too many things and probably not getting compensated enough. One of the most important and riveting things that I've been working on recently is a sprint to make my village project in Sardinia ready for 3 investor bids that we have a chance at.

Very briefly, I wanted to share a tool that I acquired across as part of interacting with these investors.

The tool in question is a deceptively simple checklist. This list inventories everything you would need to appeal to an investor, and comes directly from a capital investment firm looking to invest millions in regenerative development projects. To seasoned investors, this list helps you demonstrate that your village project is worth investing in.

The land in Sardinia where we are creating a longevity community

I am such a village nerd that I try to save as many resources as I come across. And this one seems particularly relevant.

What the best village builders realize is that although community building is an art, there is a sharp practicality needed when creating a community land development project. Most community builders and village builders that I know don't treat their projects with the level of austerity or precision that is required to turn capital heads.

Personally, as I am sharing my village vision with professionals who have developed multi-phase projects, I feel them being able to poke holes into the more artsy parts of my vision.

In these situations, this is where my lack of experience shows.

My goal is for that to not happen to you.

This list outlines 16 due diligence items to pay attention to. If you have all this documentation assembled and ready, you'll be able to jump on a call and look meticulously prepared to your funders.

For paid subscribers, I have included a link to the template version of this list below.

In an age where I could simply AI write this for you, I prefer to offer a small, curated charcuterie board of insight bites for you to sample from my lived human experience and my exclusive niche expertise.
