New intuitive software and mobile applications, Kenny Slaught believes, give investors and builders a greater selection of lending and borrowing opportunities across a variety of real estate asset classes and geographies. California’s crowdfunding or person-to-person lending campaigns rose after the adoption of the Jumpstart Our Business Startup (JOBS) Act in 2012, which openly democratized the ways, in which sponsors raise funds for real estate acquisitions and development. The new regulation permits the previously forbidden practice of promoting or openly soliciting private funding from accredited people and firms. Anyone with a net worth exceeding $1,000,000, not including their personal residences, or with an annual income of $200,000 or a household with $300,000 per year, if filed jointly with a spouse, can qualify as an accredited investor. Kenny Slaught says that the amendments gave the go ahead to individual borrowers and lenders to engage in debt and equity financing, where loans generate income in the form of interest, but without an official financial institution acting as an intermediary. These campaigns have generated a new avenue for property owners and funders to browse new investment offerings, perform due diligence, access dashboards to track how assets and financial investments are performing.

Going back nearly a century, famous architect George Washington Smith kicked off the California movement of Spanish Colonial revival. Smith was an individual who dropped out of Harvard to eventually work as a bond trader. After becoming a successful businessman, he moved to Santa Barbara to find a relaxing lifestyle and planning to work on his painting habits. But he was surprised when he learned that the city was fascinated by the house he had designed, urging him to continue crafting architectural works for many Californians. He imported authentic materials from Spain covering new and old world styles. Today Smith’s structures are much appreciated and enjoyed for their structural beauty and complex design, and he is remembered as a founding father of Santa Barbara.

Santa Barbara, in addition to being a popular tourist destination, has become a hub for young and developing businesses, notes Kenny Slaught, with dozens of promising, new companies founded in recent years. Many, including AppScale, LastLine, TrackR, and Salty Girl Seafood, have come directly out of the University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB). Over $200 million has been raised from private investors for area startups in the last year, giving the Central Coast nearly twice the investment in innovation per capita than the greater Los Angeles area, a much larger market.

This results in the region being one of the best places in the country to launch and cultivate startups, with remarkable biotech, medical, technology, and scientific businesses like Inogen, Raytheon, Sonos, and BioIQ getting their start here.
