Plum Investors acquires RealtyValuator.com

RealtyValuator.com Big Data Foreclosure tool

Development Capital Group (DLPM) and Plum Investors raised $680,900 to build online tools that harnessed new innovative technologies like Big Data. The new application that we developed is amazing.

Realty Valuator pulls in all the government auctions that are happening every day in Florida, and pulling information from over 20 different data points to allow an investor to see a better snapshot when buying a house.

These auctions happen rather fast, and having the right tools, insight, and information is the key difference in success and failure.

We plan to relaunch RealtyValuator.com in the second quarter of 2015 with the right capital and marketing plan. We are happy to announce that we have our agreement for full ownership from Development Capital Group for all the website, intellectual property, and domain name.

Clearance.co is a new ecommerce company that has generated over 400k users for their ecommerce platform. If the capital is spent properly we see huge potential with this project. Clearance.co is running Magento and has been making some interesting waves in the ecommerce space.

Clearance.co, one of the fastest growing start-up ecommerce websites in the world, was acquired by DLPM for approximately USD 40 million in an all-stock transaction which are subject to certain restrictions of resale. The completion of the transaction establishes significant revenue for Development Capital Group while enabling increased funding for marketing initiatives for the Clearance.co brand.

Joseph Ricard said of the acquisition, “The Clearance.co revenue is so compelling at such an early stage of their development we knew we wanted to be a part of that.” Mr. Ricard went onto say, “Clearance is making huge strides as a new ecommerce company, and is setting high records with their current technology. Additional growth will be apparent when we incorporate mobile platforms and integrate the advertising technology such as retargeting. You are seeing a huge shift from retail to ecommerce, and they are doing some pretty innovative things in this space already.”

This real estate foreclosure tool is a big advantage for investors looking to buy assets in the Florida market.

RV allows prospective real estate investors to search for available properties within a specific region in real time. Real estate investors will be able to assess accurately the variance between the list price and property valuation. Users will be enabled to forecast various cost & return rate scenarios associated with purchasing, renovating, and leasing each property based on current market data. Ultimately, RV gives a real estate investor similar or better tools than what current real estate investment firms are using to analyze the market. This beta release will initially only be applicable to the Florida market, however, the Company plans to expand into other states.

Joseph Ricard, President of DLPM and the developer of RealtyValuator.com, said of the application’s launch: “The application is amazing. I saw a house in Pensacola, Florida, sell for 50 percent of the valuation price. Everyone who has now seen the beta version is excited to see the new features as they roll out. I know this is just the beginning, and I have so many other markets to expand too.”

The company has updated its landing page, which allows visitors to sign up for an e-mail alert for the official launch, or they are provided with a link that allows potential real estate investors to click over and view the beta version of RealtyValuator today.

Investing in your roots – NoleTrader.com

FSU Alumni - InvestorPlum Investors is working on close ties with the Florida State Alumni to invest in the future of FSU and its students. One of the larger issues we found while going to college was a marketplace that allowed students to exchange services, assets, or buy and sell assets, safely. With all the crime reported on site like Craigslist, and Ebay being home of a large economy, we found a need for a small community focused around the Florida State Community.

We always believe that investing in people is the most rewarding we can do. One of our current investments is in an alumnus Simon Anderson, who is currently publishing a book on the future of technology and is known in the industry as a Futurist. The current project that we are investing in is a campus exclusive market place for Florida State University called “Nole Trader” you can find out more about it on its BETA currently at www.noletrader.com

The company is working on a lot of marketing ideas and teaming up with people at Florida State through strategic partnerships to create awareness of the service for students. We plan on launching the website through a soft launch, then do a large marketing campaign on campus.
