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 Project is located in Baldwin County, which is the fastest-growing county in the State of Alabama. Since 2010, the population in Baldwin County and the City of Foley have grown by 25.8% and 46.7%, respectively. This impressive growth is driven by thousands of new high-paying jobs. Over this period, the new housing supply has been insufficient, which has resulted in low vacancy rates and strong rent growth. Effective rents have increased 18.2% over the prior five-year period, a trend that is projected to continue.
Following on the success of the Single Family Rental ("SFR") market, Cottages at Foley Farms incorporates all of the best aspects of SFR with the operational efficiency of professionally managed, highly amenitized apartment communities. The Property will offer a more affordable option for the many people being priced out of home ownership due to the increase in interest rates and home prices. This highly efficient product has been termed "Build-for-Rent" or "BFR." This Project marks the third prototype developed by the M4_Ritmo partnership.
Based on a 10-year hold period, the Sponsors estimate returns of more than 19% IRR and 3.5x EMX, generating strong cash flow and considerable long-term value creation for investors.

Ritmo Properties and M4 Development
The Cottages joint venture is sponsored by Ritmo Properties and M4 Development. Ritmo Properties is owned and operated by Steve and Christy Strazzella, who have collectively been in the residential and commercial real estate markets since 1989 performing their own development, design, and general contracting services on single-family homes, townhouses, and multifamily apartment buildings. Steve has managed more than $2 billion in multifamily real estate construction and development projects for some of the largest firms in the country.
M4 Development was formed in July 2010. Its Principals, Jonathan Meyers and Joseph Meyers, have in-depth experience in developing numerous product types within various real estate disciplines. Within the last five years, M4 has developed or has under construction 2 multi-family projects, 3 single-family subdivisions, and 3 build-for-rent communities. The thorough analysis of projects utilizing their extensive knowledge and background in development and construction has translated into the success of the projects they have pursued.

Ritmo Properties and M4 Development (the "Sponsors") are proud to present an opportunity to invest in the ground-up development of Cottages at Foley Farms (the "Project"), a master-planned single-family rental community located in the City of Foley in Baldwin County, Alabama - the fastest growing county in the state.
The Project will consist of 321 single-story cottages with parking, storage, pool, and clubhouse amenities. The development will utilize a phased construction that will take an estimated 29 months to complete. The Project will consist of the construction of 321 cottages, 64 garages, 30 storage units, infrastructure, a clubhouse, a pool/grilling area, and a pet park.
The Project has been financed with a floating-rate construction loan provided by Regions Bank. The terms of the loan are approximately 75% loan-to-cost with a term of 4 years plus a 1-year extension option at a rate of 250 bps over SOFR (0.50% SOFR floor). Total Project costs are anticipated to be roughly $68 million (or $212,000 per cottage).
Current underwriting assumes a phased delivery and a lease-up pace of 25 cottages per month with a refinance in Year 5 based on a 75% LTV, 1.20x DSCR assuming a 5.50% interest rate, and a 5.50% exit cap rate. Disposition is underwritten in Year 10 at a 5.50% exit cap rate.
Upon stabilization, the Sponsors will determine whether to extend, modify or refinance the construction loan. The partnership plans to hold the asset for an estimated 7-10 years, however, the hold strategy is subject to change based on market conditions.
Cottages at Foley Farms will be a Class A development consisting of 321 single-family rental cottages with amenities featuring on-site storage, a centrally located clubhouse and pool, a business center, a pet park, and a fitness center. The Project will cater to the area's growing workforce and retirement population while fostering a community-focused environment through its numerous amenities and organized community events.

Market Overview
Over the last decade, demographic shifts have resulted in major population increases across the sunbelt, and Alabama has been one of its greatest beneficiaries. Baldwin County, along the coast of Alabama, has been the state’s greatest success story. The U.S. Census Bureau reported a population increase of 25.8% between 2010 and 2020 for the county; that increase equates to a net migration of 45,301 residents, making it the fastest growing county in the state and the top 3% among all counties in the U.S.
The population growth story in Baldwin County is primarily a result of the impressive employment growth in this business-friendly community. Baldwin County has added 20,123 new jobs since 2011, equating to an increase of 26%. Although population growth has been strong, it hasn’t been able to keep pace with job growth. The unemployment rate in Baldwin County was reported at 2.7% in July 2022, compared with the national average of 3.5% for the same month.
During a period of excessive growth in Baldwin County, there have been insufficient deliveries of new rental housing in the area. From 2011 to 2017, only 700 new multi-family units were delivered. During the same period, over 12,000 new jobs were added in the county. Delivery of new rental housing began to pick up in the latter half of the decade, averaging 300 units per year between 2016 and 2020. However, data shows that this new housing supply was insufficient, as Baldwin County absorbed an average of 294 units per year during the same period. 2021 saw the first above-average unit deliveries in years, reaching 360 units. However, during the same period, vacancy rates dropped to an average of 3.5%, pointing to pent-up demand for more housing.
Lastly, effective rents have increased 18.2% over the prior five-year period.
Submarket Overview
Foley, where the Project is located, has been one of the key drivers of Baldwin County’s impressive growth, having experienced a population increase of 46.7% since 2010. While COVID has impacted many economies, Baldwin County only experienced a minor retraction and has since expanded. Following a short-lived reduction in its employed population, Baldwin County has since expanded its employment by 3.2% from pre-pandemic levels. Baldwin County’s population growth, and specifically Foley, has included a high concentration of families. Value Tech Realty Services, Inc., a third-party market study provider, projects Foley to grow its household population by 11.9% over the next five years. This is important as families tend to prefer to have a yard, more space, and community activities, which the Project will provide. Furthermore, many of the families moving to Baldwin County are either uninterested or unable to buy homes, but still prefer the lifestyle of single-family living. Cottages at Foley Farms will deliver single-family living at a more affordable price point without the headache of home ownership.

Sponsor’s Information Qualified by Investment Documents
The Information on this Page, including of the principal terms of the Sponsor’s offering, is qualified in its entirety by reference to the more complete information about the offering contained in the Sponsor’s Investment Documents. The information on this Page 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. The information on this page should not be used as a primary basis for an investor’s decision to invest.

The information on this Page and the information in the Investment Documents are subject to last minute changes up to the closing date at the sole discretion of the Sponsor and its affiliates.
Risk of Investment
This real estate investment is speculative and involves substantial risk. There can be no assurances that all or any of the assumptions will be true or that actual performance will bear any relation to the hypothetical illustrations herein, and no guarantee or representation is made that investment objectives of the Sponsor will be achieved. In the event that actual performance is below the Sponsor’s Targets, your investment could be materially and adversely affected, and there can be no assurance that investors will not suffer significant losses. A loss of part or all of the principal value of your investment may occur. You should not invest unless you can readily bear the consequences of such loss. Please see the Sponsor’s Investment Documents for additional information, including the Sponsor’s discussion concerning risk factors.
Risk of Forward-Looking Statements
Forward-looking statements are found here and in the applicable Investment Documents and may include words like “expects,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “estimates” and other similar words. These statements are intended to convey the Project Sponsor’s projections or expectations as of the date made. These statements are inherently subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties. Please see the applicable Investment Documents for disclosure relating to forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements attributable to the Sponsor or its affiliates apply only as of the date of the offering and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included elsewhere in 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.
Sponsor’s use of Debt
A substantial portion of the total acquisition for the Property will be paid with borrowed funds, i.e., debt. There can be no assurance that the Sponsor will secure debt on the rates and terms noted above, or at all. All of the Sponsor’s estimated rates and terms of the debt financing are subject to lender approval, including but not limited to the annual interest rate and possible increases in capital reserve requirements for funds to be held in a lender-controlled capital reserve account. The use of borrowed money to acquire real estate is referred to as leveraging. Leveraging increases the risk of loss. If the Sponsor were unable to pay the payments on the borrowed funds (called a "default"), the lender might foreclose, and the Sponsor could lose its investment in its property.
In addition, unless the debt provides for a fixed rate of interest during the term of the loan and/or any subsequent extensions, the total amount of interest paid over the term of the debt will increase by the same amount as the related index. For example, if the index rate increases by 0.50% (50 basis points) the interest rate on the loan will increase by the same amount. The amount of such interest rate increases may be capped either by its terms or as the result of the Sponsor entering into an arrangement that caps the interest rate with respect to the debt at a particular rate.
Sponsor’s Offering is Not Registered
The interests offered by the Sponsor 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.”).
