We run extensive background checks, criminal checks, bad actor checks, and reference checks on sponsors. In addition to never allowing a sponsor with a criminal history / any securities related issue to use the platform, we may also turn down sponsors due to poor reference checks even if background and criminal checks come back clear.
We require unaffiliated sponsors to use an unaffiliated third-party escrow agent. When an investor makes an investment with unaffiliated sponsors using the RealtyMogul platform, the investor’s money is transferred directly into a third-party escrow account. All closing conditions in connection with a sponsor’s offering need to be met before the third-party escrow agent will approve releasing investor funds to the issuer or general partner. For example, if an issuer or general partner plans to use funds for a real estate acquisition that does not ultimately transact, the third-party escrow agent will not transfer investor funds to the issuer or general partner, and funds will be returned to investors.
Our controls include visiting every property (or a subset of properties if it’s a fund) to confirm the real estate is what and where the real estate is supposed to be.
We have robust quality controls with detailed checklists and a review of third-party reports.
The Property is being acquired off-market at a 11.4% cap rate based on Year 1 proforma NOI. The Real Estate Company's business plan calls for a 11% average cash-on-cash return, including a 10.4% Year 1 cash-on-cash return.
The principals of the Real Estate Company have acquired $1.75 billion of real estate in the Market over their careers and have extensive experience in owning and managing multi-tenant value add flex industrial and office assets, including repositioning of New England mill properties.
The Property is a transit oriented property that is strategically well-located and positioned to leverage its locational attributes catering to local, regional and national businesses seeking cost efficient office and industrial/flex space as well as the ability to draw on large and diverse labor pool and customer base within Massachusetts and New Hampshire

The Real Estate Company is acquiring the Property at a $7,050,000 purchase price ($16/rsf), with the investment objective to maximize the Property’s intrinsic value by unlocking its strategic market position and functional potential as an institutional-grade mixed-use office and industrial flex property.
The Property is currently 80.3% occupied with strong cash flows. The business plan includes the acquisition, rehab, and repositioning of the Property. The Real Estate Company will spend $3.3 million on building renovations and capital improvement costs (including a 10% contingency), $3.6 million on tenant improvement and leasing costs, and $1.4 million in soft costs.
Per the Real Estate Company, the current owner is the second generation of family ownership and has not maximized occupancy, increased rents to true market potential, or improved the overall building in a broad manner as an institutional owner would. The Real Estate Company is highly experienced at institutional leasing, asset and property management and plans to bump occupancy from the current 80.3% to a stabilized 89.5% during the hold period. The Real Estate Company plans to renew most leases to three to five year terms, vacate weaker tenants, and increase rents for tenants whose rents are under market during the first few years, through a tried and true program of partnering with tenants, building a true sense of “community” and investing in tenant spaces, common areas, and systems. The Real Estate Company's Year 1 base rent assumes rental income mostly from in-place tenants and assumes nominal rent from leasing of vacant space. The Real Estate Company has underwritten rents as follows: $12-14/SF for office (compared to market at $19-20/SF), $7.25/SF for industrial (compared to market at $8.50-9.50/SF), and $15/SF for retail.
The business plan calls for a five-year hold, at which point the Real Estate Company has underwritten the Property to be sold for approximately $18.5 million ($43/SF) at an 8.75% exit cap rate.
Note: an integral component of the deal was the bifurcation of the subject asset, Everett Mill, from the adjacent historic Stone Mill, also owned by the current owner. The Stone Mill is an approximately 100,000 square foot iconic mill property on the National Historic Register that has fallen into disrepair. The Real Estate Company was strategically able to procure a buyer and negotiate and structure a favorable deal to re-sell Stone Mill, simultaneously with the closing of Everett Mill, to one of the largest, most respected housing developers in the country. The developer plans to invest upwards of $40 million to transform Stone Mill into 90 +/- mixed-income housing units that will greatly enhance the overall mixed-use campus feel of the combined properties. The post-closing business plan and financial assumptions exclude the Stone Mill component.

Everett Mill (the "Property") is a 508,200 gross square feet, seven-story historical mill building comprised of flex office, industrial, and ground floor retail spaces. The Property has history dating back to the early 1900s with the first known true labor strike in America starting at its front steps; the strike set off positive changes in labor laws and wages across the United States.
The Property features a diverse tenant mix with 67 tenants ranging in size from 500 square feet to over 34,000 square feet. The Property features high ceilings, large windows, original refinished wood floors, natural brick, and exposed beams. The Property is located within a 0.5 mile walk to the Lawrence MBTA, with one-hour commute to Downtown Boston. The Property's main entrance is the gateway to the main street in downtown Lawrence that features a wide variety of restaurants, bars, and retail amenities. The Everett Mill enjoys proximity to major employers such as Lawrence General Hospital, New Balance, Amazon and Mass Hire, as well as major educational institutions such as Cambridge College, Suffolk University, Regis College, and Lawrence Public Schools. The Property is one of the last commercial and industrial mills of scale available in the Market, as most have been re-developed into multifamily apartments. The historic appeal of the Property within the developing neighborhood location allows it to be an unique asset in the market.
Per the Real Estate Company, the Property's functional versatility is highly appealing to a variety of tenants affording the Property multiple options to maximize operating income and value. The rent roll is durable with the largest tenants showing an average lease tenure of 10 years, some of which have been at the Property for 20-25 years.

Market Overview
The Boston industrial market entered the coronavirus pandemic with sound fundamentals. The market was experiencing some of the lowest vacancies in history, coupled with steady demand and rent growth. Leasing velocity slightly declined throughout 2020 when compared to recent years, but several industrial users have continued to take space.
One of them is Amazon, which continues to lease at a historic pace in Boston and across the country. While consumer spending is on a gradual climb back to pre-pandemic levels, many have shifted to online shopping, which has steadily increased the need for distribution and warehouse space. Amazon leased nearly 600,000 square feet in the Boston metro and close to 2 million across the state in 2020. As online sales rise, Amazon is likely to sign on for even more space in the near-term and Boston will continue to be a landing spot for e-commerce occupiers.
Boston's industrial market has also benefited from the heightened growth of the life sciences industry. Even as the pandemic has halted activity in the office market, biotech companies continue to lease up space, driving the need for pharmaceutical manufacturing. And as tensions with China persist, many manufacturing jobs within the industry may return to the United States and Boston alike, which would provide further industrial demand in the long run.
Overall construction remains limited in Boston, as the market has nearly 3.2 million SF underway, 60% of which remains available for lease. Boston has notably diminished its industrial inventory over the past decade as many buildings have either been demolished or converted for multifamily use. This could prevent further vacancy expansion as new industrial product delivers over the course of the coming year.
Healthy fundamentals have paved the way for increased investor interest in recent years. The industrial market continued to make headlines with roughly $4.1 billion trading hands in 2020. However, similar to the office and retail sectors, volume significantly dropped off in the third quarter.
Submarket Overview
Lawrence/Andover is a very large submarket, containing roughly 29.5 million square feet of industrial space.
The recent instability hasn't made a huge impact on the vacancy rate, although vacancies (4.5%) have ticked up slightly over the past twelve months. Annual net absorption came in at a decrease of 330,000 SF over the past year. The story improves over a longer timeframe: Over the past five years, the submarket has posted net absorption of about 280,000 SF per year, on average.
Rents grew at a strong clip of 5.1% over the past year. While undoubtedly a solid result, this does represent the weakest rent growth observed in Lawrence/Andover in several years.
There are no supply-side pressures on vacancy or rent in the near-term, as nothing is underway. Moreover, the inventory has actually contracted over the past 10 years, as demolition activity has outpaced new construction.
Industrial properties traded with regularity last year, consistent with the generally high level of activity over the past three years.
Downtown Lawrence, MA Area Attributes
Centrally located north of Boston, Lawrence, MA is highly accessible to major cities in the area as well as Downtown Boston via immediate access to I-495/93 and commuter rail.
The Everett Mill is a transit-oriented property that is strategically well-located and positioned to leverage its locational attributes catering to local, regional and national businesses seeking cost-efficient office and industrial/flex space as well as the ability to draw on large and diverse labor pool and customer base within Massachusetts and New Hampshire.
Lawrence’s locational attributes are presently driving its position as an attractive urban center that is witnessing strong growth in both commercial as well as residential uses with the revitalization of its mill buildings. Continued strong demand for housing is driving conversion of mill buildings to new residential construction with thousands of additional units, which is further enhancing the City's economic strength and employment base while also reducing the availability of mill building space for industrial and office use, ultimately pushing office and flex rents higher and vacancy rates lower. Riverwalk (a mill building complex across the river from the Property) represents a “proof of concept” example that is demonstrating high occupancy and rents from an impressive array of commercial and residential tenants.
The appeal of Lawrence, and the surrounding area, has attracted major real estate investors/owners including Seyon Capital, Lupoli Companies, KS Partners, Spear Street Capital, Contrarian Capital Management, Oaktree Capital Management, W.P Carey, Carter Validus, Atlantic Management Corporation, Malcolm Brawn, Sun Life Assurance Company, and Menlo Equities.

The preceding summary of principal terms of the offering is qualified in its entirety by reference to the more complete information about the offering contained in the offering documents, including, without limitation, the Private Placement Memorandum, Operating Agreement, Subscription Agreement and all exhibits and other documents attached thereto or referenced therein (collectively, the "Investment Documents"). This summary is not complete, and each prospective investor should carefully read all of the Investment Documents and any supplements thereto, copies of which are available by clicking the links above or upon request, before deciding whether to make an investment. In the event of an inconsistency between the preceding summary and the Investment Documents, investors should rely on the content of the Investment Documents.
There can be no assurance that the methodology used for calculating targeted IRR is appropriate or adequate. Target IRR is presented solely for the purpose of providing insight into the Investment Entity’s investment objectives, detailing its anticipated risk and reward characteristics and for establishing a benchmark for future evaluation of the Investment Entity’s performance. Targeted IRR is not a predictor, projection or guarantee of future performance. There can be no assurance that the Investment Entity’s targets will be met or that the Investment Entity will be successful in identifying and investing in investment opportunities that would allow the Investment Entity to meet these return parameters. Target returns should not be used as a primary basis for an investor’s decision to invest in the Investment Entity. Please see the applicable Investment Documents for disclosure relating to forward-looking statements.
All forward–looking statements attributable to the Sponsor or persons acting on its behalf apply only as of the date of the offering and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included elsewhere in this summary and the Investment Documents. Any financial projections are preliminary and subject to change; the Sponsor undertakes no obligation to update or revise these forward–looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Inevitably, some assumptions will not materialize, and unanticipated events and circumstances may affect the ultimate financial results. Projections are inherently subject to substantial and numerous uncertainties and to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks, and the assumptions underlying the projections may be inaccurate in any material respect. Therefore, the actual results achieved may vary significantly from the forecasts, and the variations may be material.
