KASA Investor Story: Courtney “Coko” Eason from Memphis, TN

Courtney “Coko” Eason’s story is one that – in the beginning at least - will sound familiar to many of us. She changed jobs and completely forgot about her old 401(k). We’ve all been guilty of that at one time or another. However, once she realized that her retirement accounts where not growing like they should and that she was only narrowly invested in the stock market she took quick, decisive action to correct the situation. Enter the KASA Hotel Investment Fund to provide much needed diversity, safety and a boost of great returns.

As an entrepreneur Coko left her “corporate” job in 2017 to become the founder and CEO of a new startup that was backed by Google. Any entrepreneur will tell you that there are a million little details that are all clamoring for your attention when you are the boss. When your new business is also backed by Google there is a rush of excitement and the pressure to perform. Not surprisingly Coko completely forgot about her 401(k).

It was the market implosion in early 2020 that brought her attention back to her retirement plans. She was afraid of getting wiped out in the stock market. One of her lifelong dreams was to build a commercial real estate development in the music, entertainment and technology fields and it was in danger of being snuffed out, so she began looking for ways to invest in commercial property. Then she found the KASA Hotel Investment Fund.

Commercial real estate is a fantastic investment for at least three reasons:

1. Steady strong returns. The KASA Hotel Investment Fund will allow Coko to earn 5% IRR from day one. Once her hotel is up and running, she will begin to earn 15% from the profits of all the hotels in the entire Fund. Compare these returns to the S&P 500 for the past 10, 20 or 30 years: 14%, 7.5% and 11% respectively. It is not hard to see what attracted Coko to the KASA Hotel Investment Fund since a 15% return year after year is much better than the stock market.
2. Diversify away from the stock market. The stock market is also quite volatile, whereas real estate is not. What brought Coko’s attention back to her 401(k) was the deep swing into the red the markets were taking and that her retirement accounts were being wiped out. She knew she had to do something and discovered that real estate is just about the safest investment in the world. That the KASA Hotel Investment Fund is directly backed by the real estate held in the fund, which was paid for with cash and not by issuing debt to finance, makes it solid as a rock.
3. Appreciating asset. The returns are great at 15% per year but in addition to that is the simple fact that beachfront real estate typically doubles in value every 5-10 years. If Coko ever decides to sell her shares they will be worth much more than what she paid for them. Great returns, stable consistent investment and an appreciating asset is a winning formula for anyone’s retirement nest egg.
4. Bonus perks. With the KASA Hotel Investment Fund shareholders get many fringe benefits from their partnership. Chief among them is the ability to book friends and family at 5-star luxurious beachfront hotels in fabulous tropical destinations at cost. Be treated like a VIP and get complementary upgrades when available, not to mention spa and F & B discounts as well.

As Courtney says:

“I was so happy to come across the KASA Hotel Investment Fund. One of my life long dreams is to build a commercial real estate development of my own, so transferring my funds into the investment felt like a perfect start…Once we get through these trying times with COVID-19, I know that people are going to be eager to travel to more spacious, private and luxurious places such as KASA and that alone makes me so excited to be an investor”.

A great opportunity: The KASA Hotel Investment Fund is building a $50,000,000.00 portfolio of multiple 5-star luxury hotels that is normally only available to the super-rich or financial institutions. KASA is making this opportunity to everyday investors like Coko who are looking to turbo charge their returns in a safe and secure way. Doing it while at the same time taking advantage of the taxation benefits that 401(k)s, SEPs and IRAs allow is a great plan.

KASA offers a no hassle partnership in fabulous commercial real estate, backed by a superlative executive team with many decades of experience. One of the problems of managing a piece of investing real estate is that there is always lots to do. Finding tenants, credit checks, handling tenant disputes, collecting rent, performing maintenance and improving the property are just some to the things that only the most enthusiastic are happy to handle. When you partner with KASA they take care of everything. All you need to do is watch your quarterly disbursements arrive in your mail box (or checking account) and plan your next family vacation.

Conclusion: Now really is the perfect time to get involved with the KASA Hotel Investment Fund. It can take 12-18 months to build a new luxury hotel and that should coincide nicely with the development of a vaccine for the global pandemic. Once construction is finished on your assigned hotel you should see a massive surge in travel and hotel bookings that will propel profits and drive growth in the Fund. If you invest through your retirement accounts like Courtney Eason did you be able to grow your nest egg in a tax advantaged way knowing that your investments are safe and secure.
