We recently closed on a refinance of this property after stabilizing it. We were able to drive the value from $2.2m to $3m by improving the property and placing tenants at market rates. Investors got one third of their capital back from the proceeds of the new loan with distributions from cash flow expected going forward. Loan was levered just above 60% with a 10 year term.

We sold this deal to our neighbor about half a year after purchasing. Although we prefer to hold long-term, this opportunity allowed us to get higher than expected returns for our investors.

We're pleased to announce our most recent purchase. This is another value-add deal where we will clean up and renovate the property, bring leases to market rates, demise one of the buildings, and create higher utilization at several areas of the property.

By driving this value, we expect to deliver solid returns to our investors and a superior property for our tenants and the neighborhood.

The seller provided favorable financing terms. Once the property is stabilized, we plan to refinance and hold long-term. As always, thank you to everyone who invested in this deal.

Who doesn't love a good before and after photo? This is Henley Park Apartments, our 44 unit multifamily property, located in Orlando, Florida.

We purchased the property in 2017, refinanced in 2018, and we're looking to close shortly on a new loan for 10 more years.

Our goal is almost always to hold property long-term. This strategy has worked very well for us and our investors.

09/22/2022

We purchased the property for $1.275M and secured financing at 68% loan to value, 4.5% interest, 10 year term, and 20 year amortization.

Our strategy revolves around improving the property, converting the property from five to seven units, and bringing rates up to market.

We'd like to give a special thanks to our investors that partnered with us on this deal. If you'd like to be a part of future deals, feel free to let us know.
