FORMALIZED DUE DILIGENCE PROCESS 
Sponsors

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.

Escrow accounts

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.

Boots on the ground

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.

Detailed Checklists

We have formalized processes and checklists for every private placement deal listed on the platform.

Overview
86-unit build-to-rent (“BTR”) Opportunity Zone Project in a rare, institutional, high barriers-to-entry, infill submarket in Charlotte, NC.
Market

One hundred people move to Charlotte every day, contributing to an acute housing shortage. The Project’s submarket, located at the heart of the West End neighborhoods in Charlotte, is at the center of even more transformational growth. From 2015-2020, single-family homes in the West End neighborhoods appreciated by over 142%. Placemaking and institutional investor activity located within walking distance from the Project include (i) Savona Mill (J.P. Morgan/Portman) a 27-acre mixed-use destination with 183k SF of creative office, 16k SF of retail and +/- 800 units of residential, and (ii) Lower Tuck (Angelo Gordon) with +/- 400k SF of creative office and retail.

Location

The Project sits directly on the Charlotte “Greenway”, a network of 62 miles of trails connecting Charlotte’s most popular neighborhoods. The Greenway is comparable to the New York Highline and Atlanta BeltLine trails, providing pedestrian connectivity and spurring development along the trails. Many units of the Project will have sweeping views of the Greenway and as well as a bucolic stream that serves as a border to the western edge of the Property.   

Cash Flow

The Project’s expected returns of 18% (before factoring in any Opportunity Zone tax benefit) are approximately 600-800 bps higher compared to a typical IRR target of 10-12% for Opportunity Zone deals. When factoring in the tax benefit from investing in Opportunity Zones, an 18% IRR could equate to a 22.9% IRR on a non-Opportunity Zone development. Project returns are driven by a compelling land basis and a high barriers-to-entry location which will drive long-term rent growth and asset appreciation. The Sponsor is contributing the land at cost despite an estimated ~46% appreciation in value over the course of a rezoning that lasted over a year. The Project was sourced off-market.

Investment Highlights
Sponsors Have A Long Track Record With Industry-Leading Firms: Sponsorship is anchored by former JBG Companies (NYSE: JBGS) executives and Managing Partners Brian Coulter (Chief Development Officer) and Rob Stewart (chair of the Investment Committee). Justin Coulter and Martin Pawlik bring decades of institutional experience from leading global firms such as Brookfield Asset Management, Canyon Partners, Drake Real Estate Partners, and J.P. Morgan. Additionally, the Sponsor’s development manager is Charlotte-based and has completed several comparable townhome projects.
Build-To-Rent (“BTR”) Townhomes Offer Competitive Advantages Vs. Multifamily: (1) BTR townhomes have shorter construction timelines (12-18 months) than traditional multifamily, which mitigates development risks, including rising costs. (2) BTR townhomes typically have faster lease-up periods. Buildings are delivered as they are completed, rather than upon completion of one large multifamily building. (3) If BTR townhomes are built by a national builder (such as Stanley Martin in this case), there is significantly less construction risk given an “off-the-shelf” floorplan and design which has been built hundreds if not thousands of times. (4) BTR units do not compete with traditional multifamily projects and are more supply-constrained. Larger unit types in the Project’s submarkets have a vacancy of 3%.
Charlotte is One Of The Most Desirable Markets in The Country And Firmly On The Institutional Radar: Leading Commercial Real Estate publications have highlighted Charlotte as one of the United States’ most attractive investment markets, due to its rapid growth, educated workforce, and thriving economic base. For example, in Urban Land Institute’s 2023 Emerging Trends in Real Estate survey, institutional investors named Charlotte as one of the top 10 markets for Overall Real Estate Prospects. Zillow Research named Charlotte as the “#1 hottest market” for 2023.
The Project’s Underlying Land is Well-Located, Owned at an Attractive Basis, and Shovel-Ready: The Sponsor closed on the land in 2022 after a rezoning process that lasted for over a year. The Property is one of the last infill sites within the entire City of Charlotte and will be the closest BTR product to Charlotte’s most desirable neighborhoods. The entire western edge of the Property is bordered by the Charlotte Greenway (New York Highline or Atlanta Beltline equivalent), and residents will have direct pedestrian access to Charlotte’s premier submarkets of South End and Uptown. Furthermore, at closing, the Project will be fully entitled, shovel ready, with a construction contract with one of the nation’s largest homebuilders, Stanley Martin (named Builder of the Year).
Rental Discount Offers An Important Interest Rate and Recession Hedge: The Project rent assumption is a ~$1,000/month discount compared to the monthly cost of home ownership in the direct submarket, and almost a $4,000/unit discount when compared to the South End and Uptown submarkets. As rising interest rates increase the cost of homeownership, the gap between renting and owning will only increase. The Project offers an attractive and affordable proposition to renters who want to live in desirable, urban submarkets.
The Project Has Favorable Financing From a Relationship Lender: Sponsorship has secured an attractive low-leverage loan (55% LTC) from United Bank. By working with a bank – an important relationship of Sponsorship – the Project will have more flexibility during construction.
BTR Is Supported By A Supply-Demand Imbalance And Other Long-Term Tailwinds: In the aftermath of the financial crisis, home building slowed to only 20% of pre-crisis levels. The number of renter households has dramatically increased since 2010 due to changing preferences (Millennials and Gen Z do not prioritize homeownership; boomers want to downsize) and stagnant wage growth (creating a housing affordability crisis).
The Project Offers Qualified Opportunity Zone Tax Benefits: Potential investor tax benefits include the deferral of capital gains until December 31, 2026, and the potential elimination of taxes on new capital gains if the investment is held for at least 10 years. The full tax benefit can increase returns by as much as 500-600 basis points compared to a non-Opportunity Zone investment.

Location Information

Market Overview

Sunbelt Migration: The Charlotte MSA continues to draw residents from across the country. The Northeast accounted for 6 of the top 10 metros that the Charlotte MSA draws from. Migration from South Florida (Miami-Fort Lauderdale) increased by 450% and migration from California increased by 500%.  

Diversified Economy with an influx of relocations: Coined the “Queen City of Finance,” Charlotte is home to 1,200+ companies and ranks as the second-largest banking hub in the U.S. followed by New York City. Nine Fortune 500 companies are headquartered in Charlotte, and in 2022, a Fortune 50 healthcare technology company’s HQ announcement was the largest economic development announcement in North Carolina’s history.

Top Ranked: Charlotte consistently tops many rankings including (i) the #1 “hottest” housing market of 2023 (Zillow), (ii) the #1 state to do business in (CNBS), (iii) the #1 most up-and-coming city in America (Yelp), (iv) and the #5 market for homebuilding prospects (ULI)

Growing Tech Hub: Charlotte was ranked #1 in STEM Job Growth Index by RCLCO and the #1 tech market in 2018 by the Tech Town Index. Several recent technology job announcements include Duke Energy (500 employees at Optimist Hall), Lowe’s Home Improvement (2,000 jobs in South End), and Centene Corporation (6,000 jobs in University Research Park)

Submarket Overview

Charlotte’s West End neighborhood is a burgeoning development hub located less than one mile from the vibrant Uptown submarket, uniquely providing an exceptional living experience in an urban setting. As the recent beneficiary of the wave of economic growth emanating from Charlotte’s urban core, West End, once dubbed as Charlotte’s “next great urban living experience,” is a rapidly expanding, yet cohesive community with a distinctly authentic flair. With a 110% property value increase since 2016 (22% CAGR), West End is the most rapidly appreciating area in the Charlotte MSA, underscoring its overall desirability for residential uses.

With a bevy of food and beverage offerings, an emerging creative office node, and a strong residential base, West End will continue to evolve into a vital live-work-play community with the Project adding highly demanded new residential supply that will integrate seamlessly with this up-and-coming corridor. Savona Mill, an adaptive reuse project featuring +/-200K SF of creative office and retail, public greenspace, multifamily units, amphitheater, and a community plaza sits just across the MLK Jr. Park from the Project. Lower Tuck, a +/-260K SF adaptive reuse creative office and retail space spanning across 4 buildings sits just south of the Project.

West End is an attractive location as it is the next available node in the path of growth for proximate supply to the urban core. Located less than a ten-minute drive to Uptown, South End, and NoDa, the Project will benefit from exceptional accessibility to Charlotte’s largest job centers. The immediate area surrounding the Property also greatly benefits from the recent expansion of the CityLYNX Gold Line streetcar, providing direct access to Uptown and serving as an additional catalyst in fueling urban renewal in West End.

Distributions

Gordon Road Capital intends to make distributions from Gordon Road Capital LP Investor QOF LLC as follows:

  1. To the Investors, pari passu, all excess cash flows to a 7.0% IRR;
  2. 80% / 20% (80% to Investors / 20% to Promoted/Carried Interest) of excess cash flow to a 10.0% IRR;
  3. 70% / 30% (70% to Investors / 30% to Promote/Carried Interest) of excess cash flow to a 12.0% IRR;
  4. 60% / 40% (60% to Investors / 40% to Promote/Carried Interest) of excess cash flow thereafter.

Gordon Road Capital intends to make distributions to investors after the payment of the company's liabilities (loan payments, operating expenses, and other fees as more specifically set forth in the LLC agreements, in addition to any member loans or returns due on member loan).

Distributions are expected to start in November 2025 and are projected to continue on a quarterly basis thereafter. Distributions are at the discretion of Gordon Road Capital, who may decide to delay distributions for any reason, including maintenance or capital reserves.

Promote Crystallization: To further align incentives between Sponsor and investor, there is a promote crystallization upon a refinance of the construction loan (currently anticipated at Month 31). A hypothetical promote is calculated using the above waterfall assuming a sale at fair market value. Next, the theoretical promote is calculated as a percent of the total distributable cash, which is estimated to be ~17% based on current underwriting. After the refinance event, the promote is “locked” and 17% of every dollar is paid as promote until the end of the hold period including sales proceeds upon exit (the waterfall is not “run” again at exit). This helps align incentives for both Sponsor and investor by allowing the Sponsor to participate in promote cash flow upon refinance. Importantly, the promote crystallization yields a materially higher multiple to investors. It is estimated that for every dollar invested, the promote crystallization will yield 37 cents more to the investor over a 10-year period.

RM Securities, LLC and its associated persons did not assist in preparing, do not explicitly or implicitly adopt or endorse, and are not otherwise responsible for, the Sponsors offering documents posted below or any content therein.
RM Securities, LLC and its Affiliates Compensation

RM Securities, LLC, its registered representatives, affiliates, associated persons, and personnel of its affiliates who may also be associated with it, including our associated persons and personnel of our affiliates who are also be associated with RM Securities, LLC (it (“RM Securities,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) will receive fees, expense reimbursements, and other compensation (“Fees”) from the issuer of this investment offering, its sponsor, or an affiliate thereof (“Sponsor”), or otherwise in connection with Sponsor’s offering. The Fees paid to us are in addition to other fees you will pay to Sponsor or in connection with Sponsor’s investment offering. You will pay Fees to Sponsor, either directly or indirectly as an investor in the Sponsor’s offering. Sponsor will use the Fees you pay, as well as funds you invest in the relevant offering, to compensate us. The Fees paid to us will directly or indirectly be borne by you as the investor (typically, but not always, in the form of an expense of the Sponsor’s offering in which you invest) because such Fees will reduce the proceeds available for distribution to you and reduce the amount you earn over time.

For more information on the Fees paid to us, or any other Fees you will pay in connection with Sponsor’s offering, please carefully review the Sponsor’s Investment Documents. Please also carefully review RM Securities’ Form CRS, Regulation Best Interest Disclosures, and Limited Brokerage Services Agreement.

No Approval, Opinion or Representation, or Warranty by RM Securities, LLC

Sponsor has provided, approved, and is solely responsible in all aspects for the information on this webpage (“Page”), including Sponsor’s offering documentation, which may include without limitation the Private Placement Memorandum, Operating or Limited Partnership Agreement, Subscription Agreement, the Project Summary and all exhibits and other documents attached thereto or referenced therein (collectively, the “Investment Documents”). 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. No part of the information on this Page or in the Sponsor’s Investment Documents is intended to be binding on us.

Sponsor’s Information Qualified by Investment Documents

The information on this Page 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 subject to change at the Sponsor’s discretion at any time up to the closing date. The Sponsor’s Investment Documents and supplements thereto contain important information about the Sponsor’s offering including relevant investment objectives, the business plan, risks, charges, expenses, and other information, which you should consider carefully before investing. The information on this Page should not be used as a basis for an investor’s decision to invest.

Risk of Investment

This 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. You should not invest unless you can readily bear the consequences of such loss. Sponsor’s Assumptions should not be relied upon as the primary basis for your decision to invest.

No Reliance on Forward-Looking Statements; Sponsor Assumptions

Sponsor is solely responsible for statements made concerning forward-looking statements and Assumptions, which apply only as of the date made, are preliminary and subject to change, and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the disclosures and cautionary statements included in Sponsor’s Investment Documents, which you should carefully review. 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. You should not rely on Sponsor’s forward-looking statements as a basis to invest.

Importantly, we do not adopt, endorse, or provide any assurance of returns or as to the accuracy or reasonableness of Sponsor’s Assumptions or forward-looking statements.

No Reliance on Past Performance

Any description of past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance and should not be relied upon as the primary basis to invest.

Sponsor’s Use of Debt

A 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 Registered

Sponsor’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”). In addition, the offering will not be registered under any state securities laws in reliance on exemptions from state registration. Such securities (your ownership interests) are subject to restrictions on transferability and resale and may not be transferred or resold except as permitted under applicable state and federal securities laws pursuant to registration or an available exemption. All Private Placements on the Platform are intended solely for “Accredited Investors,” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act.

No Investment Advice

Nothing on this Page should be regarded as investment advice (either with respect to a particular security or regarding an overall investment strategy), a recommendation, an offer to sell, or a solicitation of or an offer to buy any security. Advice from a securities professional is strongly advised to understand and assess the risks associated with real estate or private placement investments. For additional information on RM Securities’ involvement in this offering, please carefully review the Sponsor’s Investment Documents, and RM Securities’ Form CRS, Regulation Best Interest Disclosures, and Limited Brokerage Services Agreement.

RM Securities and its affiliates make no representation or warranty of any kind with respect to the tax consequences of your investment or that the IRS will not challenge any such treatment. You should consult with and rely on your own tax advisor about the tax aspects with respect to your particular circumstances.
