No, we welcome you to Join & Learn about the benefits of investing in Multifamily with no strings attached.   

What is the Downside of Private Real Estate Investing?

Private Real Estate Investing is typically reserved for Accredited Investors and often requires a larger minimum investment. Furthermore, the funds can be committed for several years so may not be as liquid as other investment types. 

What is the typical minimim investment for a Private Real Estate Offering?

$50,000-$100,000 USD

What are the advantages of Passive Private Real Estate Investing over Direct Ownership?

Passive Real Estate investing eliminates many of the headaches that can come along with Direct Real Estate Investing. No Tenants, Toilets, and Termites!

Direct Ownership can require a lot of capital, time, and involvement to successfully acquire, fund, stabilize, improve, and operate an asset. 

Why do you invest in B and C class properties in comparison to newer A class properties?

B & C Class properties with 60+ units in a great location have the capacity to satisfy a much wider range of families/tenants. They were also built and acquired at a lower cost basis offering more room for value added improvements. There is a documented shortage in workforce housing with demand expected to outpace supply over the next several decades. 

What are my investment dollars used for?

Investor funds are used to acquire and improve the property.  The total expenses include but are not limited to purchase price, acquisition fees, legal and transaction costs, capital projects, insurance and reserves.

What does it mean to be an Accredited Investor?

An Accredited Investor is an individual classified by the SEC based on wealth and income thresholds as well as other measures of sophisitcation. Accredited Investors are able to particpate in more complex and/or unregulated securities based on their financial profile and expeience.

Is Investing Risky?

Any investment carries risk. That said, we believe Multi-Tenant Commercial/Multifamily Real Estate to be one of the least risky investments there is. Why? MF Real Estate is tangilbe and everyone needs a place to live. Having multiple tenants also means you dont have to put all of your eggs in one basket/rely on a single tenant to pay the lease/rent. 

How is my investment protected?

The Sponsorship Team acts as the decision-maker of the investment on your behalf, handling the day-to-day operations with our investors. Your investment is held in Single Purpose Limited Liability Company.  Your ownership is help as a Member Interests.

How do I save taxes through passive investing in Multifamily? How much can I save?

One word: Depreciation. Depreciation is an accounting method, allowed by the IRS, of allocating the cost of a tangible asset over its useful life to account for declines in value over time. The useful life ‘clock’ resets every time a Multifamily dwelling sells to a new owner. 

When you passively invest in an apartment syndication, you are a fractional owner of a multimillion-dollar property. Every tax year, you will receive a K-1 Tax form that will claim either gains or losses. As a general rule of thumb, Investors typically see 60-90%* of their original investment in a depreciation tax benefit in year 1. (*Dependent on methods and strategies used like Bonus depreciation and Cost Segregation) 

Passive losses from the K-1 can be used to offset any future distribution from the investment or any other passive investments, meaning you don’t pay taxes on any gains unless they exceed the depreciation loss. If you don’t use it in one calendar year, then you can carry it forward until you can!

In summary, the government highly incentivizes those invest in businesses that are critically necessary and that they are unwilling/unable to provide directly.

 

Can I invest using 1031 Exchange funds?

On a case by case basis for investments of 1mm or more. This involves additional legal fees and establishment of a TIC (Tenancy in Common) entity which must be approved by the sponsorhip team for each Asset.
