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.

JOSS Realty Partners (the "Real Estate Company") anticipates achieving upside in this investment by effectively managing lease rollover, making strategic improvements to the interior, exterior, and common areas, and selling the asset in approximately seven (7) years at a favorable cap rate.
The Real Estate Company has capitalized $882,000 ($8.63 per square foot) and the lender is holding back $667,000 ($6.52 per square foot) for leasing costs and capital expenditures, while an additional $2.97 million ($29.05 per square foot) will be contributed from a lender reserve and operating cash flow for future tenant improvements and leasing costs over the hold. The Property will be managed by BMS Realty Services.
Upon closing, Pitcairn Trust is to execute a new seven-year lease at the Property with a starting base rent of $25.00 per square foot (with $0.50 per square foot annual escalations). Additionally, Oppenheimer and RAF Industries executed leases this year at $25.50 and $23.50 per square foot, respectively. These recent leases at the Property compare favorably to the average Horsham/Willow Grove submarket rents of $22.53 per square foot.
The Real Estate Company sees this investment as an opportunity to benefit from superior management of a currently under capitalized asset in a market where they are an owner and manager of approximately one million square feet of commercial real estate.

The Property is located in Jenkintown, PA approximately 14 miles north of the Philadelphia CBD in the Horsham/Willow Grove submarket, as defined by CoStar. The Property is situated across the street from the Jenkintown/Wyncote SEPTA rail stop and has immediate access to Route 611, Route 309, and Route 152 - all major thoroughfares. The Property is approximately 22 miles from Philadelphia International Airport and is proximate to a wide variety of shopping, dining, entertainment, and recreation options. There is minimal inventory in the submarket that competes with this class A product.
Market Overview
CoStar (3rd Quarter 2017): A top-10 office landscape by square footage, the Philadelphia metro area has some of the lowest vacancy of any major market in the country. Only a pair of I-95 corridor competitors (Boston at just over 8% and New York City at just over 9%) boasted tighter occupancies at the end of 17Q2 than Philadelphia. Year-over-year rent growth, which has traditionally been less than 2%, outpaced that through the first two quarters of the year and market participants think there’s more runway ahead of this metro. While the 2018 delivery of the 1.3 million square foot Comcast Technology Center is the biggest construction story in town (and on the East Coast, outside of New York’s skyscrapers), it’s not the only project driving headlines in downtown Philly. The 600,000 square foot FMC Tower (over 13 miles from the Property asking $44 per square foot) came on line in 2016, Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) is expanding into a nearly 500,000 square foot Innovation Tower in 2017, and mega-projects in University City—while years away from fruition—are opening the eyes of investors who had normally passed on the city before. On the investment front, cap rates are tightening but are still less compressed than in other Northeastern cities and total returns continue to attract late-cycle investor attention. Philadelphia serves as a logical next step down the chain of core Northeastern markets, and sales volume hit a cyclical high in 2016.
Submarket Overview
CoStar (3rd Quarter 2017): An average-sized submarket relative to Philadelphia’s office landscape, Horsham/Willow Grove's inventory is spread out between Horsham, Jenkintown, Willow Grove, and Huntington Valley. A large portion of the office tenant base is in the retail/wholesale industry or manufacturing. This is not surprising given the submarket’s abundance of industrial properties. Nonindustrial tenants are concentrated in personal services and medical office, typical of tenants in any small suburban submarket that serves the local population. Some regional offices, though, help keep vacancies close to the metro average. Penn Mutual, Ascensus, and UnitedHealthcare all keep 100,000 square foot-plus offices in the submarket, and insurance helps drive the local economy. Rent growth hasn’t always responded as expected, but gains have been well above average the last few years. The Property in particular benefits from its unique proximity to the Jenkintown/Wyncote SEPTA rail stop (30 minutes outside of Philadelphia) and high barriers to entry with limited new construction slated for the area.

The Target will make distributions to investors (The Company, Real Estate Company, and Other LP Investors, collectively, the "Members") as follows:
- To the Members, pro rata, in accordance with their respective unreturned capital contributions until they have received an aggregate amount equal to their 8% annual cumulative returns;
- To the Members, pro rata, in accordance with such Member’s unreturned capital contributions until each Member’s unreturned capital contribution has been reduced to zero;
- 50 / 50 (50% to the Members / 50% to the Real Estate Company), pro rata, in accordance with their respective percentage interests, until the cumulative amount distributed to Real Estate Company is equal to 25% of the aggregate distributions made to all of the Members under sections 1 and 3 of the distribution hierarchy;
- 75 / 25 (75% to the Members / 25% to the Real Estate Company) of excess cash flow and appreciation thereafter.
Note that these distributions will occur after the payment of the Company's liabilities (loan payments, operating expenses and other fees as set forth in the LLC agreement, in addition to any member loans or returns due on member loans).
The Company will distribute 100% of its share of excess cash flow (after expenses) to the members of The Company (the RealtyMogul.com investors). The manager of The Company will receive a portion (up to 10% pro-rata) of the Real Estate Company's promote interest. Distributions are projected to start in June 2018 and are projected to continue on a quarterly basis thereafter. These distributions are at the discretion of the Real Estate Company, who may decide to delay distributions for any reason, including maintenance or capital reserves.

The above presentation is based upon information supplied by the Real Estate Company or others. Realty Mogul, Co., RM Manager, LLC, and The Company, along with their respective affiliates, officers, directors or representatives (the "RM Parties") hereby advise you that none of them has independently confirmed or verified any of the information contained herein. The RM Parties further make no representations as to the accuracy or completeness of any such information and undertake no obligation now or in the future to update or correct this presentation or any information contained herein.
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.
Non-Transferability of Securities
The transferability of membership interests in The Company 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. Moreover, the estimated investment holding period described herein is only a projection, and there can be no assurance when or if an investment may be liquidated. 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.
Credit Risk
The Company's investment in The Target will relate to a Property that will undergo some degree of renovation, a situation that does not always meet the financing criteria for conventional financing from institutional sources. Credit risk is inherent in the real estate financing industry, and there can be no assurance that the credit worthiness of the Real Estate Company will be sufficient to assure the full repayment of the The Company's common equity investment and thus The Company's ability to provide returns (or even repayment of principal) to investors.
Mortgage Risk
The Real Estate Company has a signed term sheet with a lender to provide the debt financing for the acquisition of the Property, but there can be no assurance that the lender will complete financing on the rates and terms included in the underwriting being presented in the model for this investment opportunity. All rates and terms of the debt financing are subject to final lender committee approval, including but not limited to a modification in lender held capital reserve requirements that may result in a corresponding movement of certain funds currently projected as being held in a Real Estate Company controlled capital escrow account.
Management Risk
Investors will be relying solely on the Real Estate Company for the execution of its business plan. The Real Estate Company may in turn rely on other key personnel with relevant experience and knowledge, including contractors and consultants. Members of The Target (including The Company) 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 Real Estate Company has significant operating experience, The Target is a newly formed company and has no operating history or record of performance. The Company is pursuing a venture capital strategy through its investment in The Target, and the manager of The Company is expected to be treated as an investment adviser exempt from federal or state registration under this strategy.
Manager of The Company May Participate in Real Estate Company's Promote Interest
The manager of The Company may 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 The Company. Investors must recognize and agree to waive and bear the risk of this conflict of interest.
Capital Call Risk
The amount of capital that may be required by The Target from The Company is unknown, and although The Target 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 The Target, and in such event the manager of The Target may accept additional contributions from other members of The Target. Amounts that the manager of The Target advances on behalf of The Company will be deemed to be a manager loan at an expected interest rate of 18% per annum. Amounts that are contributed by existing or new members may be deemed as a member loan at an expected interest rate of 18% per annum or as additional capital contributions, in which case The Company's interest in The Target will suffer a proportionate amount of dilution.
Real Estate Market Risk
The Target's economic performance and value, and thus the value of investors’ investment in The Company, is subject to various risks associated with the Property. Real estate markets are affected by many factors, such as general economic conditions, supply and demand for real estate investments, interest rates, the availability of financing, and other factors. Investments related to real estate are also subject to market valuation risks that may be caused by changing economic and local market conditions such as local real estate market conditions. The Property’s economic performance and value, and thus the value of investors’ investment in The Company, is subject to such risks, all of which are beyond the control of both The Company and The Target.
Environmental Risk
The west adjacent property from the Property was formerly a manufactured gas plant between approximately 1898 and 1925. Per a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, the historical use of the off-site property to the west as a Manufactured Gas Plant represents a recognized environmental condition. No further action is recommended at this time, except to continue to allow access for the purposes of further assessment and remediation, if required. There can be no assurance that the west adjacent property’s condition will not cause significant damage to the Property, in which case the business and financial condition of the Property, and thus the Company, would be materially adversely affected.
Interest-Only Loan
The loan being used to acquire the Property is expected to have an interest-only period during the first year of the term, which means that there will be no reduction in the principal balance during that interest-only period.
Co-Terminus Debt Risk
The loan on the Property is expected to have a term of seven (7) year(s), potentially creating a refinancing risk should market conditions deteriorate over the next seven years.
Mortgage Risk and Prepayment Penalty
The Real Estate Company has a signed loan application with a lender to provide the debt financing for the acquisition of the Property, but there can be no assurance that the lender will complete financing on the rates and terms included in the underwriting being presented in the model for this investment opportunity. Should the terms of the debt financing change materially and adversely, investors will be notified. If the debt financing does not close as anticipated and the Real Estate Company needs an extension on the purchase contract, the seller of the Property may not so extend and the transaction may be canceled. The lender's due diligence may result in modifications of the proposed terms indicated in the executed loan application, which may result in the transaction being canceled. The Real Estate Company expects that the loan used to acquire the Property will be subject to a prepayment penalty; a shorter than expected hold period would increase the risk of a prepayment penalty being assessed.
The above is not intended to be a full discussion of all the risks of this investment. Please see the Risk Factors in the Issuer Document Package for a discussion of additional risks. The above presentation is based upon information supplied by the Real Estate Company and others. Realty Mogul, Co., RM Manager, LLC, and The Company, along with their respective affiliates, officers, directors or representatives (the "RM Parties") hereby advise you that none of them has independently confirmed or verified any of the information contained herein.
