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.

Investment Details
U.S. Realty Partners and Compass Acquisitions ("USRP" and "Compass" or collectively "the Sponsors") plan to acquire Plaza at Riverlakes, a 102,836 square foot, Save Mart-anchored center located in Bakersfield, California. The Sponsors intend to create value through a combination of rolling over existing leases to market rates; taking advantage of built-in contractual lease rate increases; vacating certain local tenants at the end of their lease term in order to replace them with national credit tenants; and leasing the remaining vacant space.
Realty Mogul investors are being provided the opportunity to invest in Realty Mogul 31, LLC. Realty Mogul 31, LLC will be making an investment in Plaza at Riverlakes Partners, LLC, which will hold title to the property.
The Sponsors will handle all aspects of the investment including acquiring the property, completing the strategic repositioning and lease-up program, and ultimately selling the asset. They intend to work with a dedicated local leasing agent and a focused property management team in order to achieve these goals.
The Sponsors plan on holding the property for three (3) to five (5) years before exiting the investment, though the hold period could be longer or shorter. Realty Mogul investors have the opportunity to participate as equity stakeholders and earn a share of the cash flow and appreciation. Investors can expect to receive quarterly updates and distributions, with the first distribution projected on or before February 15th, 45 days after the first calendar quarter of operations post-closing.
Plaza at Riverlakes represents a unique opportunity to invest in a stabilized grocery anchored shopping center with several existing national retail tenants. Four of the six national shop tenants have been at the property since it was built. The property has existing, in-place cash flow with minimal tenant rollover over the investment term, and offers investors value-add potential through a combination of rollover of existing leases to market rate, built in contractual rent increases, credit enhancement by vacating certain local tenants at the end of their lease term and replacing them with national tenants, as well as the lease up of the remaining vacant space.
Investment Highlights
- Grocer and Drugstore Anchored Center: The property is anchored by Save Mart, a privately held grocery chain headquartered in Modesto, CA with over 225 stores throughout the Central Valley, Northern California and Nevada and shadow-anchored by Walgreens (not part of the collateral), the nation's largest drug retailer. Combined with a roster of nationally recognized in-line tenants including Supercuts, Baja Fresh, Papa John's, UPS Store, Sport Clips and Fitness 19, the property includes many community-serving and daily need retailers. The initial expiration of the Save Mart lease is in November 2026. Save Mart currently benefits from a below-market lease rate of $0.61 per square foot/month; 10% increases in the lease rate will occur at the end of each of 2016 and 2021. At the expiration of the lease term in 2026, Save Mart has seven 5-year options to extend the lease, with a 10% increase in the base rental rate to apply at each option period. It is noteworthy that Save Mart closed a 45,000 square foot store a mile south of the property and consolidated operations at Plaza at Riverlakes, which would seem to demonstrate its commitment to this location. Although the grocer is not required to report sales under its lease, the tenant has reportedly seen 2% growth in year over year sales.
- Highly Occupied Property: The shopping center is currently 92% occupied but has seen occupancy rates exceed 97% for much of the past 10 years, well above the Central Valley's average historical occupancy average of 91%. The national shop space tenants total 35% of the shop space and 15% of the total project area. In addition to the Save Mart store, which has been at the property since 2005, 56% of the shop tenants have occupied their space since 2008 or earlier. The Sponsors have engaged Cushman and Wakefield, who has more than 20 years of experience leasing in the Bakersfield market, to complete the leasing at the property. The only vacant spaces in the center are two adjacent vacant spaces totaling 6,000 square feet which are located within a freestanding building with frontage on Calloway Drive. Cushman and Wakefield is currently in discussions with Buffalo Wild Wings to potentially lease the entire space (6,000 square feet).
- Affluent Submarket: Within three (3) miles of the property, the population is approximately 78,500 people, with a median household income of $83,702. The current daily traffic count at the intersection is over 47,000 (20,000+ count in each direction at the property).
- Robust Historical Sales: 13 of the 20 current tenants provide sales per square foot figures. Of these tenants, seven have reported sales in excess of $200 per square foot for 2013.
- Built-In Rent Increases: The leases are triple net and include both management fee and administrative fee reimbursements. 12 of the 20 leases at the property have fixed rental increases, most of which are annual. Save Mart is one of the leases with fixed rental increases. Their rental increases occur every five years and are 10% with each increase.
- Limited Lease Rollover: No more than 10% of the property's leases expire in any single year during the hold period. This limits not only the occupancy risk at the property, but also the cost to re-tenant any spaces as they may become available.
| Year | SF | % Leases Expiring |
|---|---|---|
| Current | 6,000 | 5.8% |
| 2014 | 3,425 | 3.3% |
| 2015 | 9,460 | 9.2% |
| 2016 | 4,098 | 4.0% |
| 2017 | 9,520 | 9.3% |
| 2018 | 10,333 | 10.0% |
| 2019 | - | 0.0% |
| Thereafter | 60,000 | 58.3% |
| Total | 102,836 | 100.0% |
Risks and Risk Mitigation*
- Forward-Looking Statements: Investors should not rely on any forward-looking statements made regarding this opportunity, because such statements are inherently uncertain and involve risks. We use words such as “anticipated,” “projected”, “forecasted”, “estimated”, “prospective”, “believes,” “expects,” ”plans” “future” “intends,”, “should,” “can”, “could”, “might”, “potential,” “continue,” “may,” “will,” and similar expressions to identify these forward-looking statements.
- Illiquid Investment - Transfer Restrictions & No Public Market: The transferability of membership interests in Realty Mogul 31, LLC are restricted both by the operating agreement for that entity and by U.S. federal and state securities laws. In general, investors will not be able to sell or transfer their interests. There is also no public market for the investment interests and none is expected to be available in the future. Persons should not invest if they require any of their investment to be liquid. This is particularly important for persons of retirement age, who should plan carefully to assure that their assets last throughout retirement.
- Anchor Tenant Accounts for 33% of Rental Revenues: Save Mart, which occupies 58,000 square feet, accounts for approximately one-third of the center's revenues. The success of the property is thus closely tied to the ongoing lease with Save Mart. If Save Mart defaulted on its lease or otherwise stopped paying rent, the debt service coverage ratio ("DSCR") at the property would still be 1.27x, based on the proposed loan with the five year interest-only period, which would cover debt service but which would be slightly below the minimum 1.30x covenant under the proposed loan. Save Mart leases 56% of the property's square footage, and assumed its lease from the Ralph’s grocery chain in 2005. Save Mart's lease runs through November 2016, and features seven 5-year extension options, each with a 10% fixed increase on the first day of the extension period (thus, 2016 could mark the first such increase).
- Macro Retail Risk: The retail asset class can be volatile, especially with the growth of internet-based retailers such as Amazon. This risk is partially mitigated by the fact that this property has several community service retailers and has been historically highly occupied, including through the most recent economic downturn. There is also a Walgreens shadow anchor at the property. Combined, these tenants and the Walgreens likely bring in a significant amount of traffic to the center on a daily basis.
- Leasing Risk: There is a risk that the leasing team will be unable to lease space as it becomes vacant from time to time. There are currently two vacancies at the property amounting to 6% of the total available square footage. The Sponsor has engaged a local leasing broker with more than 20 years' experience to assist with the leasing of the vacant space. The property has also been historically well occupied (often greater than 97%) despite recent difficult economic conditions.
- Loan Is Interest-Only for Five Years: The loan is interest-only for a period of five years, and therefore the principal balance will not be amortized during this time. By delaying principal payments, interest-only loans can make refinancing more difficult at maturity and increase the risk of the investment opportunity. This risk is partially offset by the increase in returns to investors during the life of the deal due to the lower debt service. Additionally, despite the absence of principal loan balance reduction, it is estimated that the loan will be 65% loan-to-value in year five given the projected financial assumptions.
- Management Risk: Investors will be relying solely on the manager of Plaza at Riverlakes Partners, LLC for the execution of its business plan. That manager in turn may rely on other key personnel with relevant experience and knowledge, including contractors and consultants. Members of Plaza at Riverlakes Partners, LLC (including Realty Mogul 31, LLC) will agree to indemnify the manager in certain circumstances, which may result in a financial burden if any litigation results from the execution of the business plan. While the manager of Plaza at Riverlakes Partners, LLC has significant operating experience, Plaza at Riverlakes Partners, LLC was formed only recently and has no significant operating history or record of performance.
- Manager of Realty Mogul 31, LLC Will Participate in Sponsors' Promote Interest: The manager of Realty Mogul 31, LLC will be entitled to a participation in the value of any excess distributable cash flow and any appreciation of the property realized upon its sale. This could lead to a potential conflict of interest between the manager and Realty Mogul 31, LLC. Investors must recognize and agree to waive and bear the risk of this conflict of interest.
- Uncertain Distributions: The manager of Plaza at Riverlakes Partners, LLC cannot offer any assurance that there will be sufficient cash available to make distributions to its members (including Realty Mogul 31, LLC) from either net cash from operations or proceeds from the sale of the asset. That manager, in its discretion, may retain any portion of such funds for property operations or capital improvements.
- Risk of Interest Charges or Dilution for Sponsor Capital Calls: The amount of capital that may be required by Plaza at Riverlakes Partners, LLC from the Company is unknown, and although Plaza at Riverlakes Partners, LLC does not require that its members contribute additional capital to it, it may from time to time request additional funds in the form of loans or additional capital. The Company does not intend to participate in a capital call if one is requested by Plaza at Riverlakes Partners, LLC, and in such event the manager of Plaza at Riverlakes Partners, LLC may accept additional contributions from other members of Plaza at Riverlakes Partners, LLC, borrow the funds, or admit new members contributing new cash to Plaza at Riverlakes Partners, LLC. Amounts that the manager and/or the contributing members of Plaza at Riverlakes Partners, LLC advance on behalf of the Company may be deemed to be either loans to the Company, or else as additional capital contributions, in which case the Company's interest in Plaza at Riverlakes Partners, LLC will suffer a proportionate amount of dilution.
- General Economic and Market Risks: While the Sponsors have conducted significant research to justify the intended rental rates and sales price relative to comparable properties in the market, their best efforts to forecast economic conditions cannot state for certain whether or not investor sentiment and the capital markets will be favorable to the property at the intended disposition date. The real estate market is affected by many factors, such as general economic conditions, the availability of financing, interest rates and other factors, including supply and demand for real estate investments, all of which are beyond the control of the manager of Plaza at Riverlakes Partners, LLC.

City of Bakersfield Overview
Bakersfield is located in the San Joaquin Valley and is the ninth largest city in California. The city is the county seat of Kern County and also the commercial center of the Bakersfield MSA. The region is the fourth most productive agricultural county in the US as well as a top producer of oil and natural gas. Kern County produces approximately 75% of California’s in-state oil and about 58% of the state’s total natural gas. The county accounts for 10% of overall US oil production and three of the five largest US oil fields. Additionally, Kern County is ranked one of the top five most productive agricultural counties in the nation. Major crops include grapes, citrus, almonds, carrots, alfalfa, cotton and roses.
The city serves as the home for both corporate and regional headquarters of companies engaged in the agricultural and energy industries. Additionally, Bakersfield has a growing manufacturing and distribution sector. Several companies have moved to Bakersfield because of its inexpensive land and access to the rest of America. Companies like IKEA, Target and Sears have chosen the area for major distribution centers. Other companies have opened regional offices including non-oil/agricultural businesses because of Bakersfield’s and Kern County’s business friendly policies, such as having no local utility or inventory taxes.
Bakersfield Retail Overview
According to research completed by Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, the shopping center retail market in Bakersfield is comprised of approximately 8.9 million square feet of inventory which has generally been well-occupied throughout the downturn. Even at the trough of the market, average vacancy rates remained below 10% and asking rental rates only dipped to $13.90 per square foot (NNN). Since then, vacancy rates have improved to 8.2% and average asking rental rates have improved to $14.36 per square foot as of Q2 2014.
The Northwest Bakersfield submarket is a newer submarket in Bakersfield, growing 18% to 1.8 million square feet from 2007 to 2014 versus a 12% growth in inventory for the Bakersfield market. In addition, population growth within a three mile radius of Plaza at Riverlakes was nearly 75% from 2000 to 2010. The submarket has historically commanded higher asking rents than the overall market, averaging $20.80 per square foot NNN since 2007 versus $15.51 per square foot NNN for Bakersfield. Although the vacancy rate in the submarket was higher than the overall market before 2011, it has since outperformed the overall market since 2012 with evidence that the submarket will continue command tighter vacancy.

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.

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 DocumentsThe 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 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. 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 AssumptionsSponsor 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.

No Reliance on Past PerformanceAny 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 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”).
