Clear Investment Group (CIG) is a renowned Chicago-based boutique real estate investment firm with over 20 years of expertise in transforming distressed assets, specializing in mid-size multifamily properties in secondary and tertiary markets nationwide. CIG's core mission is to provide quality housing for America's working class while generating above-average returns for investors. As a woman-owned business with a diverse workforce, CIG is committed to both financial success and community improvement through property restoration.

The team at Clear Investment Group faced significant challenges when seeking new business opportunities in real estate investment. Both the scarcity and fragmentation of data on limited partners (LPs) and the lack of a clear, organized database of information hindered their capital-raising efforts as they struggled to identify and prospect into potential investors for their assets. Determined to find a better way to access actionable data on their target investor base, CIG partnered with FINTRX for their extensive family office and investment advisor data intelligence.

FINTRX has since enabled CIG to access key investor data, including asset class interest, investment preferences and contact information, instantly. The platform's advanced location filters have proved invaluable, allowing CIG to efficiently map out travel and schedule meetings with key prospects. This partnership has empowered CIG to centralize their target investor data, providing access to information on 850,000+ LPs & key decision-makers and enhancing their targeting efforts. With FINTRX's user-friendly interface and in-depth investor and contact data, CIG is now better equipped to prospect more effectively, helping them to close more deals and drive their business forward.

"My favorite, and most used, feature of FINTRX is the location filter. When our team travels, we seek to maximize our time in a city by setting up meetings. FINTRX helps us identify key prospects based on location." - Alexandra Horton, Investor Relations & Marketing Lead at CIG

Recognizing the need for a more efficient solution, Drew Weinstein, VP of Investor Relations at Parkview, and his team turned to FINTRX for its extensive coverage of 850,000+ family office, RIA & contact records, granting the team instant access to all of the data they needed and saving valuable time and resources.

August Spotlight - Hometap Equity Partners

 

Customer Spotlight:  Hometap Equity Partners

Contact:  Spencer Herman  |  Head of Family Office Relations

Industry:  Financial Services

Asset Class:  Home Equity Investment

Headquarters:  Boston, MA

Customer Spotlight Series - Hometap

Established in 2017, Hometap Equity Partners is a fintech company that has quickly emerged as a key player in the real estate space. Their Home Equity Investment solution presents homeowners with an alternative avenue to unlock their home equity while granting investors access to a specialized residential real estate opportunity. This solution has been recognized by a number of industry-leading organizations and publications including HousingWire, Fast Company, and Business Intelligence Group, and they were recently recognized as one of the fastest-growing private companies in 2023  by Inc. Magazine.

As Head of Family Office Relations at Hometap, Spencer Herman had trouble finding an effective method for identifying and reaching out to suitable family offices. The lack of up-to-date and accurate information combined with the company's niche asset class offering made finding the right prospects difficult and their outreach process inefficient. Spencer often spent his time conducting manual research and casting a wide net across the family office landscape. "I wasn't able to really narrow down my search to find the right fit for our offering, which is pretty unique,"  notes Spencer. It was clear both he and his team needed a better way to source actionable data on family offices and the contacts within them. 

FINTRX ultimately proved to be a game-changer for Hometap Equity Partners, saving them valuable time by automating manual research and providing insights into shared interests with potential investors. Since harnessing the FINTRX database platform, Hometap has been able to streamline their outreach by leveraging the Affinity Score feature and accessing detailed private wealth information on 3,700+ family offices and 20,000+ contacts to find the perfect investors for their asset class. Spencer and his team are now better equipped to make warm and meaningful connections with suitable investors.

"I spend significantly less time on manual research because FINTRX automatically lets me know what interests I have in common with whoever I'm reaching out to. It also saves a ton of time to filter out investors who wouldn't be a fit for our asset class."  - Spencer Herman  |  Head of Family Office Relations at Hometap

Rowe Capital Partners faced a significant pain point, citing that it was "difficult to identify family offices and accurate contact information" while keeping pace with the growing number of established firms. The task of pinpointing suitable family offices for their specific use case proved to be time-consuming and often yielded outdated or unreliable information.

Rather than wasting valuable time scouring the internet for credible data, Rowe and his team made the decision to leverage FINTRX for its ever-expanding and constantly updated dataset of 3,700+ family offices and 20,000+ decision-makers. Since adopting the cloud-based platform, Rowe Capital Partners has experienced a remarkable improvement in their family office prospecting efforts.

Thanks to FINTRX, Ziegler is equipped with the tools to navigate the private wealth landscape effectively and drive their business forward.

"For recent fund and capital raising efforts, FINTRX has made it easier than ever to cultivate a list of targeted, well-aligned family offices that may be interested in the opportunity.

March Spotlight - NewSpring Capital

 

Customer Spotlight:  NewSpring Capital

Contact:  Michael Davis  |  Fundraising

Asset Class:  Venture Capital, Private Equity

Headquarters:  Radnor, PA

AUM:  $3B+

Customer Spotlight Series (in blog) (1)

Founded in 1999, NewSpring Capital is a Radnor, PA-based private equity firm with over 3B+ in assets under management. NewSpring partners with the innovators, makers and operators of high-performing companies in dynamic industries to catalyze new growth. The firm's investment size ranges from $5M to $30M, and it typically takes a minority ownership stake in the companies it invests in. 

Prior to becoming a FINTRX user, NewSpring Capital found a gaping hole when it came to accessing detailed and actionable information on family offices. With increased pressure to pursue family office LPs for fund investments and co-investments, the Head of Fundraising at NewSpring Michael Davis needed access to a dedicated database with accurate and comprehensive coverage of the family office landscape. Davis explained the family office space to be "difficult to canvas broadly due to the lack of information available on private family offices and its highly fragmented nature."

Davis and his team ultimately needed a resource to identify family offices that align with NewSpring's investment strategies, and furthermore, increase the number of conversations and relationships with suitable family office investors.

NewSpring Capital now utilizes the FINTRX family office dataset of 3,800+ family offices and 20,000+ family office contacts on a weekly basis. Davis reflects on NewSpring's family office coverage prior to leveraging the FINTRX data solution and stated that the dozens of granular search parameters and thorough investment coverage of the family office ecosystem has been "extremely useful for NewSpring's fundraising efforts across our multiple strategies." As a multi-year customer, NewSpring Capital continues to leverage FINTRX at scale to turbocharge and organize their family office access.

"Before FINTRX, we used other investor databases that were not specifically focused on family offices and have found FINTRX to provide better and more detailed information." Michael Davis, Fundraising, NewSpring Capital
