Who is Grand Vision Bond Partners NOT a good fit for?
At Grand Vision Bond Partners, we believe in transparency. While our secured bonds offer stable, fixed, asset-backed returns, they are not the right fit for every investor.
GV Bonds may NOT be a good fit if:
❌ You are a highly skilled, active investor who consistently achieves better returns on your own and enjoys navigating market fluctuations.
❌ Your primary goal is net worth growth rather than steady cash flow. If you are more focused on speculative investments or long-term appreciation, other strategies may be better suited for you.
❌ You are still actively trading and investing and aren't yet looking for a passive strategy.
However, if you are looking for predictable, worry-free income that isn’t tied to market volatility, GV Bonds may be an excellent fit.
How is GV Bonds able to offer stable, fixed returns when other investments fluctuate?
Most investors are used to seeing their portfolios rise and fall with the market, so a consistent return might feel unusual. In fact, when we launched GV Bonds, one of the first retirees we spoke with told us, “This sounds too good to be true.”
So let’s break down why GV Bonds works differently:
✔️ Asset-Backed Security – Unlike stocks or mutual funds, GV Bonds are secured by real, tangible assets such as real estate and infrastructure. This provides a built-in layer of protection that shields investors from market volatility.
✔️ Fixed, Contractual Returns – Public investments are subject to market speculation, interest rate changes, and economic cycles. GV Bonds, on the other hand, are structured with fixed interest payments that do not fluctuate based on stock market swings.
✔️ No Wall Street Middlemen – Traditional bonds and mutual funds often involve layers of fees, brokers, and management costs that eat into investor returns. GV Bonds operate on a direct investment model, meaning more of the return stays in your pocket.
✔️ Private Market Advantage – The private bond market has existed for decades, but until recent regulatory changes, it was primarily available to banks, institutions, and ultra-high-net-worth individuals. Now, accredited investors can access these same secure, fixed-income opportunities.
So, while it may feel uncommon compared to public market investing, private bonds like GV Bonds have been a cornerstone investment for institutions and high-net-worth investors for years.
If you have more questions about how our secured bond structure works, we’re happy to walk you through the details. You can reach our Funding Manager at (872) 266-3015.
Are you registered with the Better Business Bureau (BBB)?
Yes! Grand Vision Bond Partners is fully registered with the BBB though our parent company Grand Vision Family Office and maintains a stellar A+ rating.
This reflects our unwavering commitment to transparency, investor protection, reliability, and trust.
How do I invest in GV Bonds?
The process of investing in GV Bonds is simple!
When you're ready, give our Funding Manager a call at (872) 266-3015 to get started. Before investing, we’ll confirm that you are an Accredited Investor as part of the process.
What Is an Accredited Investor?
An accredited investor, as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under Regulation D, refers to individuals or entities that meet specific financial criteria, enabling them to invest in unregistered, private securities such as GV Bonds.
Below is the full breakdown of what qualifies an Individual as an accredited investor. You must meet one or more of the qualifications to be considered accredited. Entities qualify if they have over $5 million in assets or are owned entirely by accredited investors.
1. Net Worth
The individual has a net worth exceeding $1 million, either alone or jointly with a spouse or spousal equivalent, excluding the value of their primary residence.
2. Income
The individual has an annual income of $200,000 (or $300,000 jointly with a spouse or spousal equivalent) in each of the last two years, with a reasonable expectation of the same income level in the current year.
3. Knowledge-Based Qualification
The individual holds certain professional certifications, designations, or credentials recognized by the SEC, such as a Series 7, Series 65, or Series 82 license.
4. Knowledge-Based Employment
The individual is a "knowledgeable employee" of a private fund, such as an executive, director, or trustee of the fund.
All of my money is tied up in a retirement account (401k, 457, 403b, IRA).
Can I use those funds to invest in GV Bonds?
Yes! There are two ways to invest in GV Bonds using your retirement funds:
1. Withdraw funds personally – You can withdraw from your retirement account and invest as an individual, LLC, or trust. Depending on your age, there may be tax considerations.
2. Invest directly from your retirement account – Certain retirement accounts allow you to hold private bonds as an investment asset, similar to stocks and mutual funds. Our team can guide you through the process to ensure compliance and ease of investment.
This means you don’t have to rely solely on traditional market-based investments within your retirement plan—you can diversify with a stable, fixed-income option like GV Bonds.
I’ve had a financial advisor for years—why haven’t they told me about private bonds?
There are three big reasons why private bonds might be new to you:
1. You may not have qualified before
Private investments like GV Bonds are only available to accredited investors—those with a net worth of $1 million+ (excluding primary residence) or a $200K+ income ($300K for couples).Before retirement, many investors don’t qualify—but after decades of diligent saving and smart financial decisions, you now have access to opportunities that weren’t available before.
2. Many advisors don’t have the right licensing
Private bonds require specific FINRA licensing, which many financial advisors don’t hold. Rather than go through the approval process, most advisors stick to what they’re authorized to sell—which is often public stocks and bonds.
💡 Even if you have a great financial advisor who works in your best interest, they may simply not be licensed to offer private bond investments like GV Bonds.
3. The financial industry doesn’t prioritize private investments
• The public market is full of fees, commissions, and brokerage costs. Many firms profit more from selling traditional public bonds and mutual funds.
• The 2012 JOBS Act (Regulation 506 offerings) expanded access to private investments, but they are still not widely marketed to everyday investors.
• Private bond offerings require specific licensing, so many advisors simply aren’t allowed to recommend them.
Now that you have access to this exclusive market, you can take advantage of its stability and higher fixed returns that institutional investors have relied on for years.
Why do financial advisors often suggest shifting from stocks to bonds in retirement?
As you approach retirement, you’re often advised to move away from the volatility of stocks toward more stable income-generating investments like bonds. But here’s the problem:
❌ Public bonds are still tied to interest rate fluctuations, meaning their value can decline just like stocks.
❌ Publicly traded bonds are pooled investments, meaning your money is mixed with thousands of other investors.
❌ Your retirement nest egg can still fluctuate, even in a traditional “stocks-to-bonds” retirement model.
Private secured bonds like GV Bonds are different.
✔️ Your principal is stable and doesn’t fluctuate with the market.
✔️ You receive direct fixed-income payments straight to your bank account each month—no waiting for public fund distributions.
✔️ You are the direct bondholder, not just a participant in a pooled investment.
For retirees looking for stable, reliable income without the uncertainty of public market bonds, GV Bonds is a stronger solution.
How are bond interest payments made?
Interest payments are made on a monthly basis, directly deposited into your preferred bank account.
What does "tax-refundable bonds" mean?
GV Bonds were designed to relieve you of any tax consequences associated with bonds. This benefit allows investors to receive a refund check at the end of the year, reimbursing taxes paid on their bond income—without sacrificing returns.
This unique feature highlights how our bonds were specifically created to address the distinct needs of retirees.
Since every individual has a unique tax situation, we invite you to contact our dedicated team at (872) 266-3015 to walk through how this would work for you.
What happens if there’s an economic downturn?
When markets fluctuate, many investors worry about how their assets will be impacted. The good news? GV Bonds are not tied to stock markets, currency markets, or public bond markets—meaning that the volatility you see in the headlines does not affect your monthly payments.
The bottom line? Economic downturns create market panic, but GV Bonds were designed intentionally to remain steady, reliable, and unaffected by Wall Street volatility. That’s what makes secured bonds a powerful financial safeguard in any economy.
What happens at the end of my 5-year bond term?
As your 5-year bond term nears maturity, Grand Vision Bond Partners will notify you well in advance and provide guidance on your available options. You can choose to:
✔️ Extend Your Bond for Another 5-Year Term – If you want to continue receiving your fixed monthly payments, you have the option to extend your investment in 5-year increments anytime after the first year. Our team will walk you through the renewal process, ensuring uninterrupted income.
✔️ Withdraw Your Original Principal Investment – If you decide that you no longer need the monthly income, you can withdraw your initial principal at the end of the term.
At Grand Vision Bond Partners, we prioritize a seamless renewal process so that investors who depend on their bond income can extend without hassle and continue receiving steady, predictable payments. If you choose to exit, we make it simple to retrieve your original investment.
💡 Either way, you remain in control of your financial future, with the flexibility to decide what’s best for you at each stage of retirement.
What happens to my bonds when I pass away?
One of the biggest concerns in estate planning is ensuring that the wealth you’ve built continues to provide for your family long after you’re gone. With GV Bonds, you can structure your investment so that your heirs receive steady, reliable income—rather than a lump sum that could be mismanaged or quickly depleted.
How This Works:
✔️ Your investment continues paying regular fixed-income payments to your designated heirs, ensuring they have a predictable source of income.
✔️ Heirs can renew the bonds upon maturity, allowing them to maintain and extend their financial security for years to come.
✔️ Our team provides guidance to your beneficiaries, ensuring a smooth transition and helping them make informed decisions about renewal and reinvestment.
💡 Studies show that 70% of inherited wealth is gone by the second generation and 90% by the third.
GV Bonds remove that risk by providing structured, long-term financial support—making them a powerful estate planning tool.
