Haven at Charlotte is located in Nashville, Tennessee. According to Forbes.com, Nashville ranks as the 6th best city in the United States for job growth, and the Urban Land Institute lists Nashville as the 7th most attractive real estate investment and development market in the country. Nashville MSA's domestic product has grown an average of 4.9% over the past five years, far outpacing state and national averages. Its diverse economic base has become a regional economic growth engine with an average employment growth of 3.7% annually from 2015 to 2020 and has added 165,000+ jobs in the same time period.
Due to the creative financing with the ground lease, Haven at Charlotte is lowly levered with only its +/- 51% loan-to-cost construction loan requiring repayment at refinance or sale. The 99-year ground lease does not require prepayment at refinance or sale, further reducing future sale or refinance risk.
Haven at Charlotte’s basis is significantly lower than recent trades in Nashville and similar markets, affording equity investors significant downside protection on their investment. Additionally, the projected sale number in four years is in line with the comp set of today.

Guefen Development
Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Guefen Development specializes in multifamily development of Class A multifamily communities (conventional and student housing) in the Sun Belt States.
Guefen Development is one of Houston's most prominent, vertically integrated real estate development and construction companies. With a focus in multi‐family ownership, development, and construction, Guefen Development has extensive experience in both urban and suburban projects.

https://guefen.com/The above bios and track record were provided by Guefen Development and have not been independently verified by RealtyMogul.
The business plan is to develop a Class A multifamily project for $297,000 per unit in a highly amenitized, mixed-use district, home to the rapidly growing healthcare and technology sectors in Nashville. The Site is under contract for purchase from the current landowner for $10.0MM or $67/SF at a discount compared to recent comparable land trades of $250/SF. To monetize this material discount, the Sponsor will sell the land to Safehold Inc. for $34.0MM and lease it back for a customary 99-year ground lease term at 0.95% over the 30-year treasury (approximately 3.4% fixed), which will be set at closing. Investors will benefit from the $24MM of profit generated from the sale of the ground lease. The 99-year ground lease is Freddie and Fannie compliant and does not require repayment. Deal capitalization includes a $55.4MM construction loan (50.5% LTC), $34.0MM in ground lease funds, $10.0MM in preferred equity, $12.7MM in LP equity, and $7.6MM in sponsor equity. Construction is anticipated to complete in 24 months and will stabilize 12 months later in month 36. The Project is anticipated to be sold in month 48 for gross sales proceeds of $117MM or $319,000 per unit representing a 4.75% cap rate on tax-adjusted NOI.

- 50% / 50% (50% to Investors / 50% to Promote) of excess cash flow thereafter.
