The team at our affiliated broker-dealer, RM Securities, conducts diligence on of the issuer, including detailed background checks, criminal checks, bad actor checks, and reference checks on sponsors. In addition to screening for any criminal background, we may also turn down sponsors due to poor reference checks, even if the background and criminal checks are satisfactory.
We require unaffiliated sponsors to use an unaffiliated third-party escrow agent.* When an investor makes an investment with such 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 contingency 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.
Unless otherwise disclosed, escrow accounts are not required for some investments that accommodate 1031 investments where the property is already acquired.
Our processes typically includes visiting certain properties (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. For certain properties that accommodate 1031 exchange investments, the team will review third-party prepared due diligence reports in lieu of a site visit.
We have formalized processes and checklists for every private placement deal listed on the platform.
SF Partners & Affiliates
SF Partners Mortgage, LLC ("SF Partners") is a Real Estate Investment firm established in 2009 for the sole purpose of purchasing and managing commercial real estate in the State of Florida. The principals of SF Partners, Charles Stuzin and Daniel Stuzin, have been involved in both the banking and real estate industries in Southern Florida for more than 40 years.
Since inception, SF Partners (through affiliates) has purchased and operated over twenty multi-tenant commercial properties primarily in the Southern Florida area. SF Partners’ strategy has been to identify commercial buildings where it can add value through increasing occupancy, raising rental rates, and reducing expenses. Many of the properties purchased by SF Partners have also required substantial investment in capital improvements in order to achieve the aforementioned objectives.
The investment strategy is based upon acquiring and managing “sub-performing” commercial real estate assets that offer attractive risk based returns in the following property types: office, retail, and light-industrial. Typical deal sizes range from $1,000,000 - $10,000,000. By focusing on smaller commercial properties, SF Partners believes it can find value as there are less sophisticated purchasers pursuing these type of deals. Transaction types are standard arms length buyer/seller purchases but have also included the acquisition of non performing notes, portfolio purchases, and REO assets. The management team has developed a strategy which they believe allows for quick stabilization of the asset (typically within 12-18 months). The “in-house” property management team also allows SF Partners to keep expenses to a minimum while providing potentially superior value to its tenants. The following are examples of some of the recent transactions SF Partners has undertaken.

In this transaction, RealtyMogul.com investors will invest in Realty Mogul 60, LLC. Realty Mogul 60, LLC will subsequently invest in KAS CTP, LLC, the entity that will hold title to the Property.
Upon acquisition, the Sponsor intends to make some minor capital improvements/repairs to the roof estimated to cost between $10,000 - $15,000. Given that the current owner is a professional real estate firm that has owned and occupied the Property since 1998, the Property has been very well maintained. The Sponsor’s business plan largely entails managing the rollover of leases at the Property while leasing up currently vacant space (the underwriting does not assume any additional lease up until Year 4). As is customary with tenants of smaller size (average tenant square footage is 2,600) in suburban office buildings, lease terms are shorter, but will generally see larger rent increases upon renewal. The underwriting assumes target rents of $17.00 per square foot, which compares favorably with recent leasing activity which has averaged $17.24 per square foot.
Given the above market parking ratio and large lot size, there is additional upside potential to monetize the parking once the City Village development is complete, as well as the ability to develop an additional office or retail pad on the site. These considerations have not been underwritten in the assumptions, but could prove to be an attractive option to the Sponsor and/or a potential buyer.
RealtyMogul.com, along with SF Partners (the "Sponsor"), is providing the opportunity to invest in the acquisition and ownership of a 40,000 square foot office property located in Tamarac, FL (the "Property").
The primary objective of this investment is to acquire the Property below replacement cost, manage rollover throughout the hold period, bring rents up to market, and sell the Property within approximately four (4) years.
The Sponsor sees this investment as an opportunity to acquire a well located office property in a market where they are an owner and manager of over 669,000 square feet of office product.
Built in 1985, the Property is currently 86% occupied with two vacant suites. There are twelve tenants in total, comprised of professional firms such as attorneys, marketing companies, medical servicing firms, real estate firms and one of the largest elevator service companies in the South Florida area, ThyssenKrupp Elevator Group. There are 192 parking spaces, providing a high parking ratio of 4.8/1,000 square feet.

The Property is located in the City of Tamarac, FL along N. Pine Island Road and Commercial Boulevard which are both heavily trafficked roads in western Broward County, and is easily accessible from Florida’s Turnpike and the Sawgrass Expressway. The western Broward county submarket is highly populated and there is a strong demand for office space located in proximity to residential areas surrounding the greater Ft Lauderdale area. Directly adjacent to the Property, the City of Tamarac is developing a downtown City Village which will consist of retail, restaurants and new residential housing. At this time no office building is scheduled to be developed. The Property will sit at the entrance of this new downtown project and is a very substantial project for the area. Construction is to commence in January 2017.
Market Overview
According to CoStar Portfolio Strategy, the Fort Lauderdale office market has changed over the last few quarters. While employment had mostly been supported by low wage jobs, the forecast should see white-collar and high-wage jobs getting the lion’s share of growth. The result is projected to be an expanding job market that should continue to outperform U.S. employment growth across all sectors, but more important, office-using job growth may excel. The improving economy, combined with affordable office rents, should help support demand growth in the coming years, which should directly translate to healthy market fundamentals. Also, a general lack of supply additions, particularly compared with supply in other Southeast metros, should underpin one of the better vacancy improvement stories in the region, and more important, the country. There is some upside potential in pricing, which remains relatively low. For value-add investors, there could still be some good deals to be had. However, overall capital value growth may be elusive for many assets here, so core investors should make sure today’s yields are enough to last over the hold period.
Submarket Overview
According to CoStar Portfolio Strategy, the Northwest Broward/Coral Springs Submarket has a relatively small inventory, with just under five million SF of office space, only about 7% of the metro’s total. With about 50,000 people working here, it has a high employment concentration in manufacturing, healthcare, and retail trade. The two main office nodes in the submarket are along West McNab Road and North University Drive near the Coral Springs Medical Center.

The Investment Documents linked on this page have been prepared and posted by Sponsor, and not by RM Securities. We did not assist in preparing, do not adopt or endorse, and we are not otherwise responsible for, the Sponsor’s Investment Documents. We make no representations or warranties as to the accuracy of information on this Page or in the Sponsor’s Investment Documents and we accept no liability therefor.

The information on this Page is not complete and subject to change at the Sponsor’s discretion at any time up to the closing date.

Risk of InvestmentThis investment is speculative, highly illiquid, and involves substantial risk. There can be no assurances that all or any of Sponsor’s assumptions, expectations, estimates, goals, hypothetical illustrations, or other aspects of Sponsor’s business plans (“Assumptions”) will be true or that actual performance will bear any relation to Sponsor’s Assumptions, and no guarantee or representation is made that Sponsor’s Assumptions will be achieved. If Sponsor does not achieve its Assumptions, your investment could be materially and adversely affected. A loss of part or all of the principal value of your investment may occur.

Neither RM Securities nor Sponsor are obligated to update or revise such forward-looking statements or Assumptions to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Sponsor’s forward-looking statements and Assumptions are hypothetical, not based on actual investment achievements or events, and are presented solely for purposes of providing insight into the Sponsor’s investment objectives, detailing Sponsor’s anticipated risk and reward characteristics, and establishing a benchmark for future evaluation of actual results; therefore, they are not a predictor, projection, or guarantee of future results.

Sponsor’s Use of DebtA substantial portion of the total cost of the real estate asset acquired by the Sponsor with investor funds (“Property”) will be paid with borrowed funds, i.e., debt. Sponsor’s estimated rates and terms of the debt financing are subject to lender approval, and there is no assurance that the Sponsor will secure debt at the rates and terms presented on this Page or in the Sponsor’s Investment Documents, or at all. The use of borrowed money to acquire real estate is referred to as leveraging, which can amplify losses and could result in lender foreclosure. In addition, if the debt includes a variable (or “floating”) interest rate, the total amount of interest paid over the term of the debt will fluctuate and can increase. As a result, Sponsor’s use of debt can result in a loss of some or all of your investment.
Sponsor’s Offering is Not RegisteredSponsor’s securities offering will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance upon the exemptions from registration pursuant to Rule 506(c) of Regulation D as promulgated under the Securities Act (“Private Placement”).
