Accreditation
Understanding investor eligibility for private real estate offerings.
Sooch Capital offerings are made pursuant to Regulation D and are available only to accredited investors unless otherwise noted.
What does 'accredited investor' mean?
An accredited investor is an individual or entity that meets specific financial or professional criteria defined by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These standards are designed to ensure that participants in private investments have the financial sophistication and capacity to evaluate risk.
Most private real estate syndications, including those offered by Sooch Capital, rely on these definitions to comply with federal securities laws.
Who typically qualifies?
Individuals may qualify if they meet any of the following:
Income: $200,000+ individual income in each of the past two years, or $300,000+ joint income with a spouse, with a reasonable expectation of the same this year.
Net worth: Net worth exceeding $1,000,000, excluding primary residence.
Professional credentials: Certain SEC-recognized licenses (e.g., Series 7, 65, or 82).
Entities may qualify if:
They meet applicable asset thresholds, or
All equity owners are accredited investors.
Eligibility depends on SEC definitions and the structure of an offering.
How is accreditation verified?
Regulation D 506(c) offerings
For publicly marketed offerings, the SEC requires third-party verification of accredited status. This is typically handled through an independent verification service and may involve a review of income, assets, or professional credentials.
Sooch Capital does not review or store sensitive financial documents directly.
Regulation D 506(b) offerings
In certain private offerings, self-certification may be permitted where allowed by law.
Privacy-first: We aim to minimize friction and protect investor privacy while meeting regulatory requirements.
