WHEN AND HOW CAN I GET MY INVESTED CAPITAL BACK?

Business Fidelity Partners defines a targeted hold period for each investment. This indicates the amount of time you should anticipate it will take to receive your principal investment back. The hold period is not guaranteed due to a number of different factors including an ever changing economy and unpredictable fashion in which opportunities may present themselves. It is Business Fidelity Partners job to make decisions to optimize each investment. A popular way for investors to receive their principal investment back is through the sale of the properties or a refinance loan, which typically happens with 3 to 7 years.
