Should You Get An Angel Investor To Buy A Florida Keys Business?

If you dream of owning a business, you might have heard of angel investors. Angel investors are wealthy individuals who help fund businesses. They don’t usually have much interest in running the business themselves, but they usually see value in a business that they choose to invest in. They aren’t usually funding businesses to simply be nice as the name might suggest. Still, they can be an incredible resource to people with a strong entrepreneurial spirit, but little capital.

What Do Angel Investors Do?

Angel investors usually invest in multiple businesses, but they don’t always provide cash to those they invest in. Sometimes angel investors help by directly paying for start-up costs. They can see that you are willing to do the work needed to make the idea profitable for them, so they’re happy to help make your dream come true. Sometimes angel investors are commercial property owners. The might offer you a space in a building that they own, hoping that you will quickly turn a profit and sign a long term lease with them. This helps them by helping increase the chances of having a long-term tenant in their building.

How To Find Angel Investors

There are many different ways to find angel investors. Sometimes they are someone the entrepreneur knows personally. Sometimes people find angel investors online, such as through Florida Investment Network. You can also try the Angel Capital Association (ACA), which is the largest organization for angel investors in the whole world. It has over 13,00 member accredited angel investors. Plus ACA features 260 angel groups and accredited platforms. Another great resource is Gust. Gust claims it the largest startup network in the world. It’s a great resource because it allows you to apply for hundreds of angel investor funds with one single application.

What’s A Typical Angel Investor Like?

The typical angel investor has income that exceeds a $100,000 a year and is between 40 and 60 years old. They generally expect to invest in businesses in areas they have experience and usually for not longer than seven years. They know that they won’t see a return for many years, but they generally only invest in businesses that they think will pay off and in businesses that seem to indicate the investor will be well compensated for taking the risk to invest. Many angel investors are individuals, but some operate as part of a network in which they all share the risks of any one investment.
