One major goal of our investing club is to diversify our portfolio by partnering with top operators. In the case of The Orchards at Ocean Isle, we teamed up with Build Vacations to add both new construction and luxury inventory.

Open to accredited investors offering depreciation for 2023, this beach location is booming with vacation rental tenants looking for a quiet experience in a beautiful location.

Luxury leisure rentals are one of the best-performing assets during recessions, but building new gives the economy time to reboot during construction with the first homes coming online mid 2023.

This light value-add in Ocala FL was the perfect addition that our portfolio needed to grow into institutional, easy-to-manage assets, as well as diversify into the central Florida market. This gem is like a small village with private driveways and first-floor entries to feel more like houses than apartments.

Our club partnered with JT Capital to help on this gorgeous property where all the exterior and common area upgrades were completed by the previous owner, leaving us with the easy and more lucrative opportunity to renovate the apartment interiors.

As 20-year residents of Austin TX where 5 of our children were born, investing there feels like coming back home. This asset was sourced off-market from a skilled operator who renovated some major exterior features like roofing and paint. Our club came together to partner with Zion Capital, Austin locals, to fund this amazing property near the downtown central business district with impressive projected returns .

Positioned between the rapidly growing nearby markets of Cleveland, Ohio and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, this townhome-for-rent community was purchased for less than $19,000 per door! This reflects a fatigued owner unable to put in the capital improvement funds to bring this back from over 40% vacancy while the nearby comps are 95% occupied. Our plan includes a "whitewash" approach of the vacant units, with the other 68 renovated over the next two years as tenants move out. Another diamond in the rough with the nearby neighborhood in better condition: our specialty of taking low-performing projects to safe, clean, affordable housing can shine on this property.

Just 5 minutes from our 51-unit property in Pocatello, Executive Inn Apartments is directly across the street from the main entrance of Idaho State University. Purchased from an estate sale direct to owners, needing very little exterior improvements and huge upside with 7 ready-to-renovate, demo-ed, vacant units. Utilizing our established same property management and contractor teams make this project an easy win for the team.

Directly west of the central business district in a downtown Salt Lake City Opportunity Zone with attractive TSA "right to build" zoning, these 4 parcels totaling 0.51 acres is in progress to be redeveloped from the existing 2 warehouses, duplex, and 1 small empty lot into a market-rate mid rise modern apartment building. The property is purchased, city development review team is complete, existing warehouse demolition is underway, and final design is nearing completion with Design West Architects. Major equity share from a joint venture partner and opportunity zone fund to close the construction loan is currently in escrow.

Surrounded by well-cared for single family homes, this building needs heavy interior updating to achieve maximized rents in line with nearby property quality. With a lot of room to force value and having renovated more than half the units, this building is achieving rapid returns.

Tucked away in a heavily-treed pocket of south Little Rock just ten minutes from The University of Arkansas and the Clinton International Airport, these bungalows provide workforce housing with almost no vacancy. The exterior and major systems were in good shape, needing only a new roof on two of the buildings, we have renovated half the units and quickly forcing appreciation.

Located 1.6 miles from Idaho State University, this neglected property is thriving under professional management as it finally undergoes the renovations it needs to bring it up to the level of the surrounding neighborhood. A heavy lift on the renovation is a big job, but just in our backyard near where we grew up makes it the perfect hands-on project.
