Our Portfolio

450 G St, an already converted hotel-to-multifamily property, is under contract for $6.5M – a 50% discount from its $13M appraisal two years ago. This significant discount stems from its recent foreclosure, a consequence of previous developers' $100M state grant fraud and mismanagement. Despite a current challenge with non-paying tenants who learned of the foreclosure, the property is turn-key, with all unit conversions and entitlements finalized. Our strategy is purely a management and re-stabilization play, aiming to restore its value to the previous $13M valuation.

This 104-unit hotel will undergo a $3 million dollar transformation, converting it into vibrant studio apartments. This significant hotel-to-multifamily project aims to make a crucial dent in the affordable housing crisis, drawing strong support from passive investors, city, and state officials alike. Despite conservative underwriting, an impressive CBRE appraisal has valued the asset at $26 million once stabilized as multifamily, projecting a remarkable 100% increase in value. This initiative exemplifies a strategic investment designed to meet critical community needs while delivering substantial financial upside.

This property was originally acquired by the Partners for $8.5 million. After the purchase, it underwent a comprehensive entitlement process, including securing all necessary permits and approvals required for development. Before any construction began, and just as the project was poised to break ground, the property was sold to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for $13.5 million—realizing a significant return on investment prior to any physical development taking place.

This property went through a traditional value-add process, beginning with the renovation and turnover of individual units. Updates included modernized interiors, exterior improvements, fresh paint, upgraded landscaping, and other enhancements to the overall curb appeal. In addition to the physical renovations, rents were strategically increased across the board, resulting in a significantly higher net operating income. These improvements not only allowed us to meet our original projections but also positioned the asset for a successful sale, maximizing returns for our investors.
