This Offering Circular Follows the Form 1-A Disclosure Format

 

Multi-Housing Income REIT, LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of Delaware (which we refer to as the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), was formed to acquire interests in real estate assets in the United States. We are a real estate investment trust, or “REIT,” for federal income tax purposes.

 

The Company is seeking to raise up to $74,500,000 of capital by offering to the public limited liability company interests designated as “Common Shares,” in what we refer to as the “Offering.” You can read a complete description of these securities in “Securities Being Offered.” We refer to individuals and entities that purchase Common Shares as “Investors.”

 

The Offering will begin as soon as our offering statement is “qualified” by the SEC. The Offering will end upon the earlier of (1) the date we have sold $74,500,000 of Common Shares, (2) the date two years after it begins, or (3) the date we decide to end it.

 

Initially, the Company will sell Common Shares for $11.29 each, with a minimum initial investment of $2,000. We may raise or lower the price of the Common Shares during this Offering to reflect the value of the Company’s assets by filing an amendment to this Offering Circular. For more information, see “Securities Being Offering – Price of Common Shares.

 

We are selling these securities directly to the public at our website, www.upsideavenue.com. We are not using a placement agent or a broker and we are not paying commissions to anyone. All the money we raise goes directly to the Company:

 

Common Shares   Price to
Public
    Underwriting Discounts and Commissions     Proceeds to Issuer     Proceeds to Other Persons  
One Share   $ 11.29     $       0     $ 11.29     $       0  
Total   $ 74,500,000     $ 0     $ 74,500,000     $ 0  

 

When you invest, your funds will first be deposited in an escrow account with North Capital until we determine whether you are qualified to invest. We try to make that determination within 30 days.

 

The owners of our Common Shares do not have voting rights. You should consider an investment only if you are willing to entrust all aspects of the Company’s business to its management team.

 

Please note that the Company’s governing instruments (i) restrict the ability of Investor to sell or otherwise transfer Common Shares, and (ii) allow the Manager has the right to buy back the Common Shares of Investors without their consent in certain circumstances. See “Summary of LLC Agreement.”

  

Investing in our Common Shares is speculative and involves substantial risks, including the risk that you could lose all your money. Before investing, you should carefully review “Risks of Investing.

A WARNING ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

The term “forward-looking statements” means any statements, including financial projections, that relate to events or conditions in the future. Often, forward-looking statements include words like “we anticipate,” “we believe,” “we expect,” “we intend,” “we plan to,” “this might,” or “we will.” The statement “We believe interest rates will rise” is an example of a forward-looking statement.

 

Because we are talking about a new business, most of the things we say in this Offering Circular are forward-looking statements. In fact, everything we say is a forward-looking statement, other than statements of historical fact.

 

Forward-looking statements are, by their nature, subject to uncertainties and assumptions. The statement “We believe interest rates will rise” is not like the statement “We believe the sun will rise in the East tomorrow.” It is impossible for us to know exactly what is going to happen in the future, or even to anticipate all the things that could happen. Our business could be subject to many unanticipated events, including all of the things we talk about in “Risks of Investing.

 

Consequently, the actual result of investing in the Company could (and almost certainly will) differ from those anticipated or implied in any forward-looking statement, and the differences could be both material and adverse. We do not undertake any obligation to revise, or publicly release the results of any revision to, any forward-looking statements, except as required by applicable law. GIVEN THE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES, PLEASE DO NOT PLACE UNDUE RELIANCE ON ANY FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS.

 

RISKS OF INVESTING

 

BUYING COMMON SHARES IS SPECULATIVE AND INVOLVES SIGNIFICANT RISK, INCLUDING THE RISK THAT YOU COULD LOSE SOME OR ALL OF YOUR MONEY. THIS SECTION DESCRIBES WHAT WE BELIEVE ARE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT RISK FACTORS AFFECTING THE FUND AND ITS INVESTORS. THE ORDER IN WHICH THESE FACTORS ARE DISCUSSED IS NOT INTENDED TO SUGGEST THAT SOME FACTORS ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN OTHERS.

 

You Might Lose Your Money: When you buy a certificate of deposit from a bank, the federal government (through the FDIC) guarantees you will get your money back. Our Common Shares have no such guarantee. The ability of the Company to make distributions depends on a number of factors, including some beyond our control. Nobody guarantees that you will receive payments and you might lose some or all of your money.

 

Our Track Record Does not Guaranty Future Performance: The section of this Offering Circular captioned “Past Performance: Our Track Record So Far” illustrates the performance of the Company and certain affiliates. However, there is no guaranty that the Company will do well in the future as it has done in the past.

 

Speculative Nature of Real Estate Investing: Real estate can be risky and unpredictable. For example, many experienced, informed people lost money when the real estate market declined in 2007-8. Time has shown that the real estate market goes down without warning, sometimes resulting in significant losses. Some of the risks of investing in real estate include changing laws, including environmental laws; floods, fires, and other Acts of God, some of which can be uninsurable; changes in national or local economic conditions; changes in government policies, including changes in interest rates established by the Federal Reserve; and international crises. You should invest in real estate in general, and in the Company in particular, only if you can afford to lose your investment and are willing to live with the ups and downs of the real estate industry.

 

Our Growth Focus Increases Risk: The Company intends to focus on real estate projects on the “growth” side of the growth/income spectrum. By definition, these projects will tend to carry greater risk, along with the potential for higher profits.

 

Page | 1

 

 

Investors Must Wait 90 Days Before Receiving Dividends: If the Company pays a dividend, Investors who have acquire their Common Shares within the preceding 90 days will not share in the dividend.

  

Risks from Rising Interest Rates: Over the last six months interest rates have risen significantly. Meanwhile, consumer-level inflation has reached levels not seen for 40 years. While many economists believe the increase in inflation will be short-lived, caused by supply chain bottlenecks created by the COVID-19 pandemic, nobody knows for sure. If interest rates continue to rise it will likely harm our business.

 

Pricing of Common Shares: The price of our Common Shares was determined by the Manager based on the Manager’s estimate of the value of the Company’s assets. The Manager’s estimate was not necessarily based on third-party appraisals of the Company’s assets.

 

Property Values Could Decrease: The value of the properties in which we invest could decline, perhaps significantly. Factors that could cause the value of a property to decline include, but are not limited to:

 

Changes in interest rates

 

Competition from existing properties and new construction

 

Changes in national or local economic conditions

 

Changes in zoning

 

Environmental contamination or liabilities

 

Changes in local market conditions

 

Fires, floods, and other casualties

 

Uninsured losses

 

Undisclosed defects in property

 

Incomplete or inaccurate due diligence

 

Illiquidity of Real Estate: Real estate is generally illiquid, meaning that it is not typically capable of being readily sold for cash at fair market value. Thus, the Company might not be able to sell a real estate project as quickly or on the terms that it would like. Moreover, the overall economic conditions that might cause the Company to want to sell properties are generally the same as those in which it would be most difficult to sell.

 

Competition: To achieve satisfactory returns for our Investors, the Manager must identify projects that satisfy our investment selection criteria and that can be acquired at reasonable prices. There is no guaranty that the Manager will be able to do so. The real estate industry is highly competitive and fragmented. The Manager, directly or through affiliates, will compete with other real estate developers for the most promising projects, and some of those other real estate developers could have substantially greater resources, allowing them to move more quickly, pay more, or have greater access to the best projects. The result could be that the Company winds up investing in projects of lower quality, or where the owner of the project (an affiliate of the Manager) paid too much as a result of intense competition. In addition, each project acquired will face competition from other projects, including both existing properties and new properties. Such competition could limit the ability of the Company to raise rents in its projects or even force the Company to decrease rents, at the risk of higher vacancy rates.

 

The Company will Invest Primarily in the Sponsor’s Projects: To date, the Company has invested primarily in projects sponsored by the Sponsor. We expect that will continue in the future. These projects will not necessarily be the best projects available.

 

Entitlement Risks: The Company might invest in projects before some or all of the necessary zoning approvals have been obtained. Securing zoning approval can take a long time and be very expensive, and even after a long and expensive process there is no guaranty that approval will be given. If approvals cannot be obtained the value of the real estate could go down and Investors could lose some or all of their money.

 

Governmental Regulation: In addition to zoning approval, any development project will require the approval of numerous government authorities regulating such matters as density levels, the installation of utility services such as water and waste disposal, and the dedication of acreage for open space, parks, schools and other community purposes. Governmental authorities have imposed impact fees as a means of defraying the cost of providing certain governmental services to developing areas and the amount of these fees has increased significantly during recent years. Many state laws require the use of specific construction materials which reduce the need for energy consuming heating and cooling systems. Local governments also, at times, declare moratoriums on the issuance of building permits and impose other restrictions in areas where sewage treatment facilities and other public facilities do not reach minimum standards. All of these regulations will impose costs and risks on our Projects.

 

Page | 2

 

 

Lack of Representations and Warranties from Sellers: The Company might invest in projects where the seller of the real estate made limited or no representations and warranties concerning the condition of the real estate, the status of leases, the presence of hazardous materials or hazardous substances, the status of governmental approvals and entitlements, and other important matters. If we fail to discover defects through our own due diligence review but discover them only after the project has been acquired and the Company has made its investment, we may have little or no recourse against the sellers.

 

Incomplete Due Diligence: The Manager or an affiliate of the Manager will perform “due diligence” on each project, meaning we will review available information about the project, its current zoning, the surrounding community, and other information we believe is relevant. As a practical matter, however, it is simply impossible to review all of the information about a given piece of real estate (or about anything) and there is no assurance that all of the information we have reviewed is accurate. For example, sometimes important information is hidden or unavailable, or a third party might have an incentive to conceal information or provide inaccurate information, or we might not think of all the relevant information, or we might not be able to verify all the information we review. It is also possible that we will reach inaccurate conclusions about the information we have reviewed. Due diligence is as much an art as it is a science, and there is a risk that, especially with the benefit of hindsight, our due diligence will turn out to have been incomplete or inadequate.

 

Pricing of Assets: The success of the Company and its ability to make distributions to Investors depends on the Manager’s ability to gauge the value of real estate assets. Although the Manager and its principals are experienced real estate investors and will rely on various objective criteria to select properties for investment, including, in all or almost all cases, third-party appraisals, ultimately the value of these assets is as much an art as a science, and there is no guaranty that the Company and its advisors will be successful.

 

Americans with Disabilities Act: Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (the “ADA”), public accommodations must meet certain federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. Some (although not all) of the projects in which the Company invests will be “public accommodations,” and complying with the ADA and other similar laws will make those projects more expensive to build and maintain than they would have been otherwise. Furthermore, it is possible that the ADA could be extended by law or regulation, requiring existing projects to be retrofitted at great expense.

 

Difficulty Attracting Buyers and Tenants: Some of the projects in which the Company invests will involve the construction of houses, with the expectation that the houses will be sold once construction is complete. Other projects will involve the construction of multi-family apartment communities, with the expectation that the apartments will be leased to tenants once construction is complete. In either situation, the projects will be built on “spec,” meaning that we will not have a buyer for the house or tenants for the apartments at the time construction begins. Depending on market conditions, we might experience difficulty finding a buyer or tenants, with adverse effects on the profitability of the project.

 

Construction Risks: From time to time we may acquire unimproved real property or properties that are under development or construction. No matter how carefully we plan, the construction process is notorious for cost overruns and delays. If the construction of a project ended up costing significantly more than we had budgeted, or took significantly longer to complete than forecast, or were done improperly, the profitability or even the viability of the project could suffer.

 

Environmental Risks: The Manager or its affiliates will conduct typical environmental testing on each project to determine the existence of significant environmental hazards. However, it is impossible to be certain of all the ways that a given piece of real estate has been used, raising the possibility that environmental hazards could exist despite our environmental investigations. Under federal and state laws, moreover, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be required to remediate any hazardous conditions without regard to whether the owner knew about or caused the contamination. Similarly, the owner of real estate could become subject to common law claims by third parties based on damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination. The cost of investigating and remediating environmental contamination can be substantial, even catastrophic. The existence of an environmental hazard could therefore present direct or indirect risks to the Company.

Inability to Implement Liquidity Transactions: We will typically aim to invest in projects that can be liquidated (i.e., sold) within approximately five years. However, there is no guarantee that we will be able to successfully pursue a liquidity event with respect to any of our projects. Market conditions may delay or even prevent the Manager from pursuing liquidity events. If we do not or cannot liquidate our real estate portfolio, or if we experience delays due to market conditions, this could delay Investors’ ability to receive a return of their investment indefinitely and may even result in losses.

 

Need for Additional Capital: The real estate industry is capital-intensive, and the inability to obtain financing could limit our growth. We may need to raise more money in the future so we can continue to acquire and operate projects. In addition, we might need to raise money to make capital improvements required by law or by market conditions, or for other purposes. There is no guarantee that funding will be available to us when we need it, or on terms that are not adverse to your interests. If we cannot raise additional funding when needed, our operations and prospects could be negatively affected.

 

Future Securities Could Have Superior Rights: The Company might issue securities in the future that have rights superior to the rights associated with the Common Shares. For example, the holders of those securities could have the right to receive distributions before any distributions are made to Investors, or distributions that are higher, dollar for dollar, than the distributions paid to the holders of the Common Shares, or the right to receive all their money back on a liquidation of the Company before the holders of the Common Shares receive anything.

 

Risks Associated with Leverage: We intend to borrow money to finance most or all of the projects in which the Company invests. While debt financing can improve returns in a good market, it carries significant risks in a bad market, and therefore increases our vulnerability to downturns in the real estate market or in economic conditions generally. There is no guaranty that we will generate sufficient cash flow to meet our debt service obligations, and we may be unable to repay, refinance or extend our debt when due. We may also give our lender(s) security interests in our assets as collateral for our debt obligations. If we are unable to meet our debt service obligations, those assets could be foreclosed upon, which could negatively affect our ability to generate cash flows to fund distributions to Investors. We may also be required to sell assets to repay debt and may be forced to sell at times that are unfavorable to the Company, which would likewise negatively affect our ability to operate successfully.

 

Uninsured Losses: The Manager or an affiliate of the Manager will try to ensure that each project carries adequate insurance coverage against foreseeable risks. However, there can be no assurance that our insurance will be adequate, and insurance against some risks, like the risk of earthquakes and/or floods, might be unavailable altogether or available at commercially unreasonable rates or in amounts that are less than the full market value or replacement cost of the underlying properties. Hence, it is possible that a project would suffer an uninsured loss, resulting in a loss to the Company and Investors. Given the Company’s initial focus on Southern California, the risk of uninsured losses from earthquakes is especially significant.

 

Broad Investment Strategy: The Manager has broad discretion to choose projects. An Investor might prefer a more focused strategy.

 

Loss of Uninsured Bank Deposits: Any cash the Company has on hand from time to time will likely be held in regular bank accounts. While the FDIC insures deposits up to a specified amount, it is possible that the amount of cash in the Company’s account would exceed the FDIC limits, resulting in a loss if the bank failed.

 

Potential Liability to Return Distributions: Under some circumstances, Investors who received distributions from the Company could be required to return some or all of those distributions. However, Investors generally will not be liable for the debts and obligations of the Company beyond the amount they paid for the Common Shares.

 

Page | 4

 

 

Limited Liability of Manager: Under the Company’s First Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement, the grounds for which an Investor may sue the Manager is very limited. For example, the First Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement waives all fiduciary obligations of the Manager. This means that except in rare circumstances, you will not be able to sue the Manager even if the Manager makes mistakes and those mistakes cost you money.

 

Limited Participation in Management: Investors will not have a right to vote or otherwise participate in managing the Company. For example, Investors will have no voice in selecting the projects in which the Company invests, deciding on the terms of the investment, or deciding when a project should be sold. Only those willing to give complete control to our management team should consider an investment in the Company.

 

Reliance on Management: The success of the Company depends almost exclusively on the abilities of its current management team. If any of these individuals resigned, died, or became ill, the Company and its Investors could suffer.

 

Conflicts of Interest: The interests of the Manager could conflict with the interests of Investors in a number of important ways, including these:

 

The interests of Investors might be better-served if our management team devoted its full attention to the business of the Company. Instead, our team will manage a number of different projects.

 

Members of our management team have business interests wholly unrelated to the Company and its affiliates, all of which require a commitment of time.

 

Our Sponsor operates other real estate funds and might establish new real estate funds in the future. Where the Manager identifies an attractive real estate project there could be conflicts whether the project should be acquired by the Company or by one of the other real estate funds.

 

  The lawyers who prepared the First Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement, the Investment Agreement, and this Offering Circular represent us, not you. You must hire your own lawyer (at your own expense) if you want your interests to be represented.

 

Waiver of Right to Jury Trial: The Investment Agreement and the LLC Agreement both provide that legal claims will be decided only by a judge, not by a jury. The provision in the LLC Agreement will apply not only to an Investor who purchases Common Shares in the Offering, but also to anyone who acquires Common Shares in secondary trading. Having legal claims decided by a judge rather than by a jury could be favorable or unfavorable to the interests of an owner of Common Shares, depending on the parties and the nature of the legal claims involved. It is possible that a judge would find the waiver of a jury trial unenforceable and allow an owner of Common Shares to have his, her, or its legal claim decided by a jury. In any case, the waiver of a jury trial in both the Investment Agreement and the LLC Agreement do not apply to claims arising under the federal securities laws.

 

Forum Selection Provision: Our Investment Agreement and our LLC Agreement both provide that disputes will be handled solely in the state or federal courts located in or most geographically convenient to Austin, Texas. We included this provision primarily because the Company’s headquarters are in Austin. This provision could be unfavorable to an Investor to the extent that (i) a court in a different jurisdiction would be more likely to find in favor of an Investor, (ii) bringing a claim in Austin, Texas would be geographically inconvenient to an Investor or increase his, her, its costs, or (iii) this provision discourages Investors from bringing claims. It is possible that a judge would find this provision unenforceable and allow an Investor to file a lawsuit in a different jurisdiction.

 

Section 27 of the Exchange Act provides that federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction over lawsuits brought under the Exchange Act, and that such lawsuits may be brought in any federal district where the defendant is found or is an inhabitant or transacts business. Section 22 of the Securities Act provides that federal courts have concurrent jurisdiction with State courts over lawsuits brought under the Securities Act, and that such lawsuits may be brought in any federal district where the defendant is found or is an inhabitant or transacts business. Investors cannot waive our (or their) compliance with federal securities laws. Hence, to the extent the forum selection provisions of the Investment Agreement or the LLC Agreement conflict with these federal statutes, the federal statutes would prevail.

Limitation on Rights in LLC Agreement: The Company’s First Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement limits your rights in several important ways, including these:

 

The LLC Agreement significantly curtails your right to bring legal claims against management.

 

The LLC Agreement limits your right to obtain information about the Company and to inspect its books and records.

 

Investors can remove the Manager only in very limited circumstances, even if you think the Manager is doing a bad job.

 

The Manager is allowed to amend the LLC Agreement in certain respects without your consent.

 

The LLC Agreement restricts your right to sell or otherwise transfer your Common Shares.

 

The LLC Agreement gives the Manager the right to buy back your Common Shares without your consent if the Manager determines that (i) the Company would otherwise become subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (after referred to as “ERISA”), or (ii) you have engaged in certain misconduct.

 

The LLC Agreement provides that all disputes will be conducted in Travis County, Texas.

 

Limitations on Rights in Investment Agreement: To purchase Common Shares, you are required to sign our Investment Agreement. The Investment Agreement would limit your rights in several important ways if you believe you have claims against us arising from the purchase of your Common Shares:

 

Any claims arising from your purchase of Common Shares or the Investment Agreement must be brought in the state or federal courts located in Austin, Texas, which might not be convenient to you.

 

You would not be entitled to a jury trial. However, the waiver of trial by jury does not apply to claims arising under the Federal securities laws.

 

You would not be entitled to recover any lost profits or special, consequential, or punitive damages. However, this limitation of damages does not apply to claims arising under the Federal securities laws.

 

If you lost your claim against us, you would be required to pay our expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees. If you won, we would be required to pay yours.

 

Limits on Transferability: There are several obstacles to selling or otherwise transferring your Common Shares:

  

There will be no established market for your Common Shares, meaning you could have difficulty finding a buyer.

 

Under the LLC Agreement, the Common Shares may not be transferred in some circumstances.

 

If you want to sell your Common Shares, you must first offer it to the Manager.

 

Under the LLC Agreement, a transferee will not be admitted as a member of the Company unless the transferor and transferee satisfy certain conditions, including satisfying the Manager that the proposed transfer will not violate any laws.

 

Under the Limited Liability Company Agreement, the Common Shares may not be transferred if the Manager determines that the transfer could jeopardize the status of the Company as a REIT.

 

To qualify as a REIT, the Limited Liability Company Agreement limits the amount of the Company that any one person may own, which may restrict your ability to sell Common Shares to others who have invested in the Company.

Risk of Failure to Comply with Securities Laws: The Company is conducting this Offering under Regulation A, an exemption from registration authorized by the SEC, and engaged in a previous offering under Regulation A, which was qualified by the SEC on June 18, 2018. While the Company has been guided by the advice of legal counsel, the securities laws are very complicated and it is possible to violate one rule or another without intending to. If the Company fails to comply with the securities laws in the future or has failed to comply in the past, the Company could be subject to severe penalties and/or prohibited from raising additional capital, in both cases with material adverse effects for investors.

 

Risk of Severe Penalties Without Doing Anything Wrong: Under SEC Rule 262(a)(7), the Company could be disqualified from selling securities even if it has done nothing wrong, merely because the SEC has begun an investigation of the Company. Thus, for example, if a competitor with an ax to grind contacts the SEC with false information and the SEC begins an investigation, it could prohibit the Company from raising capital, thereby imposing substantial harm on the Company and its investors, harm that would not be mitigated or compensated even when the investigation reveals no wrongdoing.

 

Reduced Disclosure Requirements Under the JOBS Act: The Common Shares are being offered pursuant to Tier 2 of Regulation A issued by the SEC, as amended pursuant to the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (known as the “JOBS Act”). Regulation A does not require us to provide you with all of the information that would be required in a registration statement in connection with an initial public offering (IPO) of securities. As a Regulation A issuer, we are also not subject to the same level of ongoing reporting obligations as a typical public reporting company, including, but not limited to, many of the disclosure requirements applicable to public reporting companies under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

 

We Are an “Emerging Growth Company” Under the JOBS Act: Today, the Company qualifies as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act. If the Company were to become a public company (e.g., following an IPO) and continued to qualify as an emerging growth company, it would be able to take advantage of certain exemptions from the reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and exemptions from certain investor protection measures under the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002. Using these exemptions could benefit the Company by reducing compliance costs but could also mean that investors receive less information and receive fewer protections than they would otherwise. However, these exemptions – and the status of the Company as an “emerging growth company” in the first place – will not be relevant unless the Company becomes a public reporting company, which we do not plan or foresee.

 

We Are Not Subject to the Corporate Governance Requirements that Apply to Companies Listed on a National Exchange: Companies whose securities are listed on a national stock exchange (for example, the New York Stock Exchange) are generally subject to a number of rules about corporate governance that are intended to protect investors. For example, the major U.S. stock exchanges require listed companies to have an audit committee made up entirely of independent members of the board of directors (i.e., directors with no material outside relationships with the company or management), which is responsible for monitoring the Company’s compliance with the law. As of the date of this Offering Statement, neither the Common Shares nor any other securities of the Company are listed on a national exchange, and it is likely that our securities will never be listed on a national exchange. Accordingly, you may not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of a national exchange. 

 

Regulation As An Investment Company: If the Company were treated as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, we would be required to comply with a number of special rules and regulations and incur significant cost doing so. In addition, if it were determined that the Company had operated as an investment company without registering as such, we could be subject to significant penalties and, among other things, any contracts the Company had entered into could be rendered unenforceable. As described in “Investment Company Act Limitations,” we intend to conduct our business so that we are not treated as an investment company. However, we might not be successful.

 

Failure to Satisfy Conditions of REIT; Taxes on REITs: We intend to be taxed as a real estate investment trust, or “REIT,” under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) for purposes of federal income taxes. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must satisfy a number of criteria, both now and on an ongoing basis. Should the Company fail to satisfy any of these criteria, even inadvertently, it could become subject to penalty taxes and/or lose its REIT status altogether, which would make the Company subject to federal income tax and thereby reduce the returns to investors substantially. Further, even if it maintains its REIT status, the Company could be subject to various taxes in some situations. While the Company intends to seek guidance from tax advisors and operate its business accordingly, there is no guaranty that it will be able to avoid taxes and maintain its qualification as a REIT.

REIT Requirements Could Restrict Actions: REITs are subject to a 100% tax on income from “prohibited transactions,” which include sales of assets that constitute inventory or other property held for sale in the ordinary course of a business, other than foreclosure property. This 100% tax could impact our desire to sell assets and other investments at otherwise opportune times if we believe such sales could be considered a prohibited transaction.

 

Required Distributions: As a REIT, we generally must distribute 90% of our annual taxable income to our investors. From time to time we might generate taxable income greater than our net income for financial reporting purposes from, among other things, amortization of capitalized purchase premiums, or our taxable income might be greater than our cash flow available for distribution to our stockholders. If we do not have other funds available in these situations, we might be unable to distribute 90% of our taxable income as required by the REIT rules. In that case, we would need to borrow funds, sell a portion of our investments, potentially at disadvantageous prices, or find another alternative source of funds. These alternatives could increase our costs or reduce our equity and reduce amounts to invest in real estate assets and other investments. Moreover, the distributions received by our stockholders in such an event could constitute a return of capital for federal income tax purposes, as the distributions would be in excess of our earnings and profits.

 

Federal and State Income Taxes as a REIT: Even if the Company qualifies and maintains its qualification as a REIT, it may be subject to federal income taxes and related state taxes. For example, if we have net income from a “prohibited transaction,” such income will be subject to a 100% tax. The Company may not be able to make sufficient distributions to avoid excise taxes applicable to REITs. The Company may also decide to retain income it earns from the sale or other disposition of its property and pay income tax directly on such income. In that event, the Company’s investors will be treated as if they earned that income and paid the tax on it directly. However, shareholders that are tax-exempt would have no benefit from their deemed payment of such tax liability. The Company may also be subject to state and local taxes on its income or property. Any federal or state taxes paid by the Company will reduce the Company’s operating cash flow and cash available for distributions.

 

FIRPTA Tax on Non-U.S. Sellers: A non-U.S. Investor who sells Common Shares for a gain would generally be subject to tax under the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act (FIRPTA) if the Company does not qualify as a “domestically controlled REIT,” meaning a REIT in which less than 50% of the value of the outstanding shares are owned by non-U.S. persons. We intend to qualify as a domestically controlled REIT, but there can be no assurance we will always do so.

 

Changes in Tax Laws: At any time, the federal income tax laws or regulations governing REITs or the administrative interpretations of those laws or regulations may be amended. We cannot predict when or if any new federal income tax law, regulation or administrative interpretation, or any amendment to any existing federal income tax law, regulation or administrative interpretation, will be adopted, promulgated or become effective and any such law, regulation or interpretation may take effect retroactively. Any such change could result in an increase in our, or our shareholders’, tax liability or require changes in the manner in which we operate in order to minimize increases in our tax liability. A shortfall in tax revenues for states and municipalities in which we operate may lead to an increase in the frequency and size of such changes. If such changes occur, we may be required to pay additional taxes on our assets or income or be subject to additional restrictions. These increased tax costs could, among other things, adversely affect our financial condition, the results of operations and the amount of cash available for the payment of dividends. We and our shareholders could be adversely affected by any such change in, or any new, federal income tax law, regulation, or administrative interpretation.

 

Breaches of Security: It is possible that our systems would be “hacked,” leading to the theft or disclosure of confidential information you have provided to us. Because techniques used to obtain unauthorized access or to sabotage systems change frequently and generally are not recognized until they are launched, we and our vendors may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate defensive measures.

OUR COMPANY AND BUSINESS

 

Summary of Our Company and its Investment Strategies

 

The Company was formed on October 17, 2017 to invest in a diversified portfolio of predominantly income-producing real estate assets throughout the United States. The Company focuses primarily on student housing, multi-housing, conventional apartments, and senior living (both existing and new development projects) but also looks for opportunities across other commercial real estate sectors.

 

The Company typically targets projects with capitalization rates in the single digits and where we believe we can achieve a double digit IRR. Our typical expected holding period is between three to seven years, subject to market conditions. We do not expect to invest more than 50% of our assets in any one property.

 

Our investment strategies include the following:

 

Core Plus Strategy – Our Core Plus Strategy focuses on quality multi-housing properties with quality residents in primary and secondary markets with an opportunity to increase net operating income.

 

Value Add Strategy – Our Value Add Strategy focuses on increasing occupancy and net operating income on multi-housing properties through renovations and repositioning of the properties.

 

Opportunistic Strategy – Our Opportunistic Strategy focuses on finding opportunities to participate in multi-housing new development, distressed sales, and/or bankruptcy auctions, including land development and new construction.

 

To the extent allowed by the rules governing REITs, we might also invest, to a limited extent, in other real estate-related assets, including mortgage-backed obligations and loans where the business of the borrower is significantly related to real estate, or highly liquid shares of REITs or other securities representing real estate assets traded on national and international exchanges such as the TSX, ASX, NSE, BSE, and US-domiciled OTC markets.

 

As of the date of this Offering Circular, the Company has invested a total of $ 5,618,858 in nine different real estate projects.

 

Our Sponsor

 

The sponsor of the Company is Casoro Capital Partners, LLC, also a Texas limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). Monte K. Lee-Wen is a principal of the Sponsor. See “Our Management Team.”

 

Over the last 10 years, the Sponsor has raised approximately $203 million of capital and acquired approximately 22 apartment communities. See “Our Sponsor’s Track Record.”

 

Investments Through Other Entities

 

Sometimes the Company will own real estate directly. Most of the time, however, the investments made by the Company will be through other entities (“Project Entities”). For example, if the Company invests in a student housing property, the property will be owned by a Project Entity formed as a limited partnership or a limited liability company. Typically, Project Entities will be controlled by the Sponsor or another entity controlled by the Sponsor. However, if the Company does not control the Project Entity itself then it will retain control rights, meaning the Company’s consent will be required to certain major actions taken by the Project Entity, such as the sale or refinancing of its real estate and the replacement of its manager or general partner.

 

Investments in Sponsor Projects

 

To date, the Company has not acquired any real estate directly. Instead, the Company has invested only as an investor in projects sponsored by the Sponsor. However, the Company could acquire real estate directly in the future and/or invest in projects with different sponsors.

LLC Agreement

 

The Company is governed by a Limited Liability Company Agreement dated September 29, 2023, which we refer to as the “LLC Agreement.” You can read a summary in “Summary of LLC Agreement” and a copy of the LLC Agreement is attached as Exhibit 1A-2B.

 

Management

 

The Company is managed by Casoro Investment Advisory Firm LLC, a Texas limited liability company (the “Manager”). The LLC Agreement generally gives the Manager exclusive control over all aspects of the Company’s business. Other members of the Company, including Investors who purchase Common Shares in the Offering, generally have no right to participate in the management of the Company.

 

There is only one exception to this rule: the owners of Common Shares may, in some situations, remove the Manager for cause. For more information, see “Summary of LLC Agreement.

 

Leverage

 

We expect that all the real estate projects we invest in, whether as a direct owner or as an investor, will be “leveraged,” meaning encumbered by debt. As a general rule, we will invest in projects only where the ratio of the loan amount to the value of the property is no more than 80%. In certain cases, depending on the property and its underwriting, we might also use mezzanine debt or preferred equity.

 

Competition

 

The Company competes with many other companies for suitable projects, ranging from small real estate investors owning one or two projects to large, public REITs owning dozens.

 

Our competitive advantages include the following:

  

Our management team has over 100 years of combined experience in acquisition, asset management, and property management.

 

We are vertically integrated, giving us greater control over how assets are owned and managed.

 

Our size allows us to be nimble and flexible. It allows us to pivot operations quickly and adapt to changes such as the global pandemic. Our size also allows us to provide white-glove concierge service by providing individualized attention to our investors.

 

Our Conversion to Limited Liability Company Structure

 

The Company was formed as a Maryland corporation on October 17, 2017. Early in 2022 our management team decided that the flexibility associated with limited liability companies would be better suited to our business. Hence, after gaining the approval of our shareholders, the Company was converted to a Delaware limited liability company effective on March 18, 2022.

 

Although the Company is now a limited liability company for purposes of state law, it has elected to be treated as a “C” corporation for tax purposes. Hence, it remains eligible to be treated as a REIT.

Our Previous Regulation A Offerings

 

The Company has already conducted two previous offerings under Regulation A. The first offering was qualified by the SEC on June 18, 2018 and the second on July 22, 2022. Together, the Company raised approximately $609,541 in those offerings. All the documents relating to the previous offerings are available on EDGAR.

 

Term of the Company

 

We will begin deploying the capital we raise in this Offering right away. We intend to operate the Company indefinitely.

 

To wind down the Company, the Manager will seek to generate liquidity for Investors and realize any gains in the value of our investments by selling or refinancing our properties and returning capital to Investors on an orderly basis. Sales and refinancing will be subject to prevailing market conditions and there is no guarantee that we will be successful in executing any such liquidity transactions on terms favorable to the Company and Investors, or that we will be able to do so within the time frame we have anticipated.

OUR ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE

 

When you buy Common Shares you will become an owner of the Company, Multi-Housing Income REIT LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.

 

The Manager of the Company is Casoro Investment Advisory Firm, LLC, a Texas limited liability company.

 

Casoro Investment Advisory Firm, LLC is wholly-owned by the Sponsor, Casoro Capital Partners, LLC, also a Texas limited liability company.

 

Casoro Capital Partners, LLC is wholly-owned by Casoro Capital LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.

 

Casoro Capital, LLC is owned 95% by Casoro Group, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.

 

Casoro Group LLC is wholly-owned by The PPA Group, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company.

 

The PPA Group, LLC is owned 50% by Monte K. Lee-Wen and 50% by Nalie Lee-Wen. Mr. and Mrs. Lee-Wen are married.

 

The following chart shows our ownership structure: 

 

 

OUR SPONSOR’S TRACK RECORD

 

Summary and Narrative Description

 

The Sponsor of the Company is Casoro Capital Partners, LLC, which we refer to as “CCP.” The principal owner and manager of the Sponsor is Monte Lee-Wen. Mr. Lee-Wen is also the Chief Executive Officer The PPA Group, LLC, a real estate investment firm, which we refer to as “PPA.”

 

Since 2002, PPA has acquired over 37 multifamily apartment communities and invested equity amounts in excess of $221.3 million in Washington, Arizona, and Texas. The communities purchased or developed by Mr. Lee-Wen and his team involved approximately 11 different offerings, raising over $18.9 million in equity from more than 100 investors. We refer to each of these securities offerings as a “Program.”

 

Page | 13

 

 

All of the Programs are similar to the Company in the following respects:

 

They all involved raising money from investors.

 

They all involve conducting the same business as the business in which the Company will be engaged, i.e., investing in multi-housing apartment communities.

 

They all have the same investment objectives as the Company.

 

Because of these similarities, investors who are considering investing in the Company’s common stock might find it useful to review information about the Programs. Of course, prospective investors should bear in mind that PRIOR PERFORMANCE DOES NOT GUARANTY FUTURE RESULTS. The fact that Mr. Lee-Wen and PPA have been successful with the Programs does not mean the Company will experience the same results.

 

There have been no major adverse business developments or conditions experienced by any Program that would be material to purchasers of the Company’s Common Shares.

 

None of the Programs:

 

Has been registered under the Securities Act of 1933;

 

Has been required to report under section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934;

 

Has had a class of equity securities registered under section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or

 

Has, or has had, 300 or more security holders.

 

“Round Trip” Programs

 

Of the 37 multifamily apartment communities PPA acquired, 28 have completed their full investment cycle, from acquisition to renovation to operation to disposition. The financial results of these 28 “round trip” projects are as follows:

In addition, the other nine projects – the nine that have not yet completed their “round trip” – have paid an aggregate of $29.3 million to investors, either as a return of capital or as profit.

  

Explanation of Defined Terms

 

Property Class

 

In the world of real estate investing, properties and locations are ranked on a scale from A to D, with A best and D worst. Our ranking combines both the location of the project and its condition.

 

Internal Rate of Return (IRR)

 

Internal rate of return, or IRR, measures the financial performance of an investment taking into account the time the investment is held. For example, suppose that a bond costs $100, pays $10 at the end of each year for four years, and is redeemed after five years for $110. The IRR of that bond is 10%. But if the only payment on the bond were $150 at the end of the fifth year, the IRR would drop to 8.45%, even though the investor had still received a total of $150. The reason: the investor had to wait longer for her money.

 

Return on Investment (ROI)

 

Return on investment, or ROI is a fraction, where the numerator (the top of fraction) is the total distributions from the investment minus the total contributions to the investment, and the denominator (the bottom of the fraction) is the total contributions to the investment. For example, if an investment is capitalized with $100 and returns $135, the ROI is 135%.

 

Multiple on Invested Capital (MOIC)

 

Multiple on invested capital, or MOIC, is a fraction, the numerator of which is the total amount returned from the investment and the denominator of which is the total amount invested. For example, if an investment is purchased for $100 and is later sold for $225, net of expenses, the MOIC is 2.25.

 

Page | 15

 

 

Average Annual Cash-on-Cash Return (CoC)

 

Cash-on-cash return, or CoC, for any year, is a fraction, the numerator of which is the cash flow generated by an investment for that year minus the total amount invested as of that year (not counting borrowed money). For example, if the investment generates $9 for 2015 and the total cash investment as of 2015 was $100, the CoC for 2015 was 9%. The average annual CoC simply takes the average over the life of the investment.

 

Project-Level vs. Investor-Level Calculations

 

We have calculated IRR, ROI, and MOIC in two ways: first from the perspective of the project as a whole, and then from the perspective of investors. For example, suppose a property cost $100, all funded by investors, and were sold after one year for $120, with investors receiving a return of their $100 of capital plus 70% of the $20 profit, or $14, for a total of $114, and the sponsor receiving 30% of the $20 profit, or $6. The project would have an IRR of 20%, while investors would have an IRR of 14%.

 

Acquisitions of Properties Within Last Three Years

 

During the last three years, Casoro Group has purchased seven properties, with 2,090 rental units and an aggregate cost of over $260 million. For more detailed information, see Table VI of the prior performance tables.

WHAT IS A REIT?

 

The Company is currently treated as a Real Estate Investment Trust, or “REIT,” and intends to remain so.

 

Until January 2, 2022, the Company did not qualify as a REIT because too few people owned too much of its stock. However, the failure of the Company to qualify as a REIT did not harm the Company or its investors.

 

A REIT is just a tax concept: an entity that is treated as a corporation for federal income tax purposes and satisfies a long list of requirements listed in section 856 of the Internal Revenue Code. These requirements include:

 

The kinds of assets it owns

 

The kind of income it generates

 

Who owns it

 

How much of its income it distributes to its owners

 

A REIT is not a function of securities laws. Thus, many REITs have “gone public” by offering their securities in offerings that are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, while many other REITs are still private. Some “public” REITs have registered their shares on a national securities exchange, allowing the shares to be publicly traded, while the shares of other “public” REITs are traded privately. There are very large REITs and very small REITs, and everything in between. Some REITs invest in one class of real estate assets, others invest in completely different classes of real estate assets (e.g., only mortgages), and still others invest in multiple classes of real estate assets. The only thing all these companies have in common, being REITs, is that they all satisfy the requirement in section 856 of the Code.

 

The benefit of a REIT is just taxes:

 

If the Company were a regular limited liability company, not a REIT, then the income of the Company would be reported to Investors on Form K-1. Transferring the information from Form K-1 to his or her own personal tax return can be difficult and time-consuming.

 

Page | 16

 

 

Conversely, if the Company were a corporation and did not qualify as a REIT, it would be subject to tax on its income at the corporate level, and investors would then be subject to tax again when the Company distributed its income, resulting in two levels of tax on the same income.

 

As a REIT, the Company will not itself be subject to tax, and Investors will receive only a Form 1099 to report their income from the Company.

 

If you are interested, you can read much more detailed information about the tax treatment of REITs in “Federal Income Tax Consequences.

 

The Company is a limited liability for purposes of state law but has elected to be treated as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. That’s what allows the Company to be treated as a REIT.

Page | 20

 

 

COMPENSATION OF MANAGEMENT

 

Overview

 

The people who run the Company make money from the Company in (only) two ways:

 

They receive fees

 

They invest alongside Investors and receive the same distributions as Investors

 

Both forms of compensation are discussed below.

 

The Company itself does not have any employees or payroll. For example, Monte K. Lee-Wen, the principal of the Sponsor, does not receive any salary, bonuses, or other compensation directly from the Company. Instead, their compensation is paid from the fees paid to the Manager.

 

Fees

 

Type of Fee

 

Description and Amount

     
Reimbursement of Organization and Offering Expenses  

The Company is responsible for paying or reimbursing the Sponsor for organizational and offering costs.

 

Estimate: Since inception the Company paid the Manager and Sponsor approximately $172,904 as reimbursement of organization and offering expenses.

     
Reimbursement of Acquisition Expenses and Fees  

The Company will reimburse the Manager and the Sponsor for expenses they incur identifying and performing due diligence with respect to property the Company might acquire, even if the property ultimately is not acquired. The Company will not reimburse the Manager or the Sponsor for expenses they incur identifying and performing due diligence with respect to property for other entities to acquire (i.e., Project Entities), even if the Company invests in those entities.

 

The Company will also reimburse the Manager and/or Sponsor for out-of-pocket expenses paid to third parties in connection with providing services to the Company.

 

Estimate: Since inception the Company has not paid the Manager and Sponsor anything as reimbursement of acquisition expenses or fees.

     

Asset Management Fee

 

 

The Company will pay the Manager a quarterly asset management fee equal to 0.5% of the Company’s net asset value (approximately 2% per year).

 

Estimate: Since inception the Company has paid the Manager and Sponsor approximately $389,316 in asset management fees. The current net asset value of the Company is $7,065,513 If the net asset value doesn’t change, the Company would pay the Manager approximately $141,310 per year.

 

NOTE: Project Entities in which the Company invests might also pay a fee to the Manager, the Sponsor, or an affiliated entity based on net asset value. Because the net asset value of the Company will include the Company’s interest in the Project Entity, the Manager or the Sponsor will in a sense being paid twice for the same asset value.

     

Property

Disposition Fee

 

If the Company sells real estate it will pay the Sponsor a property disposition fee equal to 2% of the sale price.

 

Estimate: As of the date of this Offering Circular, the Company does not own any real estate directly. Therefore, it is impossible to predict the amount of the disposition fees the Company will pay to the Sponsor in the future, if any.

     
Project Entity Fees  

As of the date of this Offering Circular, all the Company’s investments consist of interests in Project Entities sponsored by the Sponsor. The Sponsor and/or its affiliates are entitled to receive fees from each Project Entity, and as an investor the Company bears a portion of these fees. The fees in question vary from Project Entity to Project Entity, but could include (i) asset management fees, (ii) property management fees, (iii) acquisition fees, (iv) disposition fees, (v) financing fees, and (vi) leasing fees.

 

Estimate: In 2022 the total of all fees received by the Sponsor and its affiliates from all Project Entities was approximately $2,336,000. Of this amount, approximately $95,000 was borne by the Company.

 

Page | 21

 

 

Report to Investors

 

No less than once per year, the Company will provide Investors with a detailed statement showing:

 

The fees paid by the Company to the Sponsor and its affiliates; and

 

Any transactions between the Company and the Sponsor or its affiliates.

 

In each case, the detailed statement will describe the services performed and the amount of compensation paid.

 

Co-Investment

 

As of the date of this Offering Circular principals of the Sponsor own approximately 33% of the total number of Common Shares issued and outstanding. See “Security Ownership of Management.” Principals of the Sponsor might acquire additional Common Shares in the future. As owners of Common Shares they are and will be entitled to the same distributions as all other owners of Common Shares.

 

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF MANAGEMENT

 

As of the date of this Offering Circular, the Company has only one class of securities outstanding: Common Shares. The following table lists the ownership of:

 

All executive officers and principals as a group;

 

Individual officers or principals owning more than 10% of the Common Shares; and

 

Anyone else owning more than 10% of the Common Shares.

 

Name   Number of Common Shares Owned     Percentage of Total

VOTING RIGHTS OF OWNERS

 

Under the LLC Agreement, the Manager has full control over all aspects of the business of the Company. Investors and other owners of Common Shares will not be entitled to vote on any matter involving the Company or the Manager, except that the owners of Common Shares may, in some situations, remove the Manager for cause or make certain amendments to the LLC Agreement. For more information, see “Summary of LLC Agreement.

 

The Manager is wholly-owned by the Sponsor, Casoro Capital Partners, LLC, which is in turn wholly-owned by PPA Group LLC, which is owned by Monte Lee-Wen and Nalie Lee-Wen.

 

Thus, Mr. Lee-Wen has effective control over the Company and its business.

 

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

 

The Company has entered into the following transactions with related parties:

 

Casoro Investment Advisory Firm LLC is the Manager of the Company.

 

The Company has entered into a Management Agreement with the Manager.

 

The Company has invested in a number of real estate projects sponsored by the Sponsor.

 

If the Company enters into transactions with related parties in the future, we will file a Supplement to the Offering Circular. Any compensation paid by the Company to a related party shall be (i) fair to the Company, and (ii) consistent with the transaction that would be paid to an unrelated party.

 

By “related party” we mean:

 

The Manager and the Sponsor;

 

All Executive Officers, Principals, and Significant Employees of the Company, the Manager, and the Sponsor;

 

Any person who owns more than 10% of the voting power of the Company or the Manager; and

 

An immediate family member of any of the foregoing.

 

SECURITIES BEING OFFERED

 

Description of Securities

 

We are offering to the public up to $74,500,000 of our Common Shares, which represent limited liability company interests in the Company. All of the rights and obligations associated with Common Shares are set forth in the LLC Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 1A-2B.

 

Price of Common Shares

 

Initially, we will offer the Common Shares at $11.29 per Common Share. During the term of this Offering, we may increase or decrease the price per Common Share to reflect changes in the value of our assets and the amount of our liabilities, which will be determined by the Manager in its sole and absolute discretion.

 

Page | 23

 

 

To determine the price of the Common Shares, the Manager would determine the “Net Asset Value” of the company. The Net Asset Value means the amount a holder of Common Shares would receive with respect to each Common Share if all the assets of the Company were sold for their fair market value, all the liabilities and obligations of the Company satisfied, and the remaining proceeds, if any, distributed in accordance with the LLC Agreement. The Manager shall calculate the Net Asset Value from time to time in its sole discretion, but no less than as of the last day of each fiscal year.

 

Net Asset Value is calculated internally by reviewing:

 

Estimated values of each project based upon (i) market capitalization rates, comparable sales information, interest rates, discount rates, and net operating income; and (ii) in certain instances individual appraisal reports provided by an independent valuation expert.

 

The price of liquid assets for which third party market quotes are available.

 

Accruals of dividends.

 

Estimated accruals of operating revenues and expenses.

 

In instances where we determine that an independent appraisal of the real estate asset is necessary, we may engage an appraiser that has expertise in appraising multi-housing real estate assets. The independent valuation expert will not calculate Net Asset Value.

 

NOTE: The use of different judgments or assumptions would likely result in different estimates of Net Asset Value. Moreover, the Net Asset in effect as of any moment will not reflect changes since the last calculation. Further, our published Net Asset Value may not fully reflect certain material events to the extent that they are not known or their financial impact on our portfolio is not immediately quantifiable. The calculation of Net Asset Value is not based on, nor intended to comply with, fair value standards under GAAP and might not be indicative of the price that we would receive for our assets in an arm’s length sale.

  

Changes in the price of the Common Shares will be reflected in an amendment to this Offering Statement filed with the SEC. At this time, the Manager cannot reasonably estimate when or how often it will amend the Offering price. Such amendments will depend upon numerous factors, including, but not limited to, (i) the amount of capital raised in this Offering, (ii) our ability to effectively deploy the capital we raise, (iii) the timing of actual asset acquisitions and dispositions by the Company, (iv) the value of assets acquired or disposed of by the Company, and (v) changes in interest rates and international or local market conditions.

 

Voting Rights

 

Owners of the Common Shares – that is, Investors – will have no right to vote or otherwise participate in the management of the Company. Instead, the Company is managed by the Manager exclusively. However, under certain circumstances Investors have the right to remove the Manager for “cause.”

 

Distributions

 

We intend to make distributions periodically, as conditions permit. All distributions will be on a pro rata basis with respect to the Common Shares. Distributions will not be made to Investors who have not yet owned Common Shares for 90 days.

 

How We Decide How Much To Distribute

 

To decide how much to distribute, we start with our revenues, which may include proceeds from the sale or refinancing properties and rental income, and then subtract our actual expenses, which may include items such as management fees (including fees to the Manager), bank fees, appraisal costs, employment, insurance, commissions, marketing costs, taxes, legal and accounting fees, travel expenses, and fees paid to third parties. Finally, depending on the circumstances at the time, we decide how much should be held in reserve against future contingencies.

 

Withholding

 

In some situations, we might be required by law to withhold taxes and/or other amounts from distributions made to Investors. The amount we withhold will still be treated as part of the distribution. For example, if we distribute $100 to you and are required to withhold $10 in taxes, for our purposes you will be treated as having received a distribution of $100 even though only $90 was deposited in your bank account.

 

No Guaranty

 

We can only distribute as much money as we have. There is no guaranty that we will have enough money, after paying expenses, to distribute anything to Investors.

 

Transfers

 

Investors may freely transfer their Common Shares, but only after providing the Manager with written assurance that (i) the transfer is not required to be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, (ii) the transferor or the transferee will reimburse the Company for expenses incurred in connection with the transfer, and (iii) the transfer will not compromise the Company’s election to be taxed as a REIT for purposes of federal income taxation.

Mandatory Redemptions

 

The Manager may require an Investor to sell his, her, or its Common Shares back to the Company:

 

If the Investor is an entity governed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, Code section 4975, or any similar federal, state, or local law, and the Manager determines that all or any portion of the assets of the Company would, in the absence of the redemption, more likely than not be treated as “plan assets” or otherwise become subject to such laws.

 

If the Manager determines that the redemption would be beneficial in allowing the Company to retain its status as a REIT.

 

If the Manager determines that (i) such Investor made a material misrepresentation to the Company; (ii) legal or regulatory proceedings are commenced or threatened against the Company or any of its members arising from or relating to the Investor’s interest in the Company; (iii) the Manager believes that such Investor’s ownership has caused or will cause the Company to violate any law or regulation; (iv) such Investor has violated any of his, her, or its obligations to the Company or to the other Members; or (ii) such Investor is engaged in, or has engaged in conduct (including but not limited to criminal conduct) that (A) brings the Company, or threatens to bring the Company, into disrepute, or (B) is adverse and fundamentally unfair to the interests of the Company or the other Members.

 

If an Investor’s Common Shares are purchased under these circumstances, the price will be based on 90% of then-current net asset value of the Company.

 

Limited Right Of Redemption

 

An Investor who has owned Common Shares for at least one year may ask the Company to redeem (buy back) a portion of his, her, or its Common Shares. The Company will use reasonable efforts to buy the Common Shares in the next fiscal quarter immediately following the quarter in which the redemption request was made based on the following formula:

 

If the Common Shares Have Been Owned for:  Then the
Price is Based
on this
Percentage of
Net Asset
Value
 
At Least One Year but Less Than Two Years   98%
At Least Two Years but Less Than Three Years   99%
At Least Three Years   100%

 

The following conditions apply:

 

Except upon an Investor’s death, for investors redeeming more than $10,000, the Company will not redeem more than 50% of the Common Shares owned by an Investor during any period of 12 months.

 

The Company will process all redemption requests received during a calendar quarter together. If the Company does not have the funds to redeem all the Common Shares requested during the quarter, it will redeem them on a pro rata basis.

 

The Company will not redeem more than 5% of all the Common Shares outstanding during any calendar quarter.

 

To fund the redemption of Common Shares, the Company will not be required to (i) sell assets, (ii) borrow money, or (iii) take any action the Manager believes is adverse to the interests of the Company or its Investors.

 

Upon the redemption of his, her, or its Common Shares, the Investor will sign such documents as the Company shall request, including a general release of claims (not including claims under the federal securities laws).

If you fall within any of those categories, then you can invest as much as you want. If you don’t fall within any of those categories, then the most you can invest in this Offering is the greater of:

 

10% of your annual income; or

 

10% of your net worth.

 

These limits are imposed by law, not by us.

 

When you go to our website, www.UpsideAvenue.com, we will ask whether you’re an accredited investor. If you aren’t, then we’ll ask about your annual income and net worth.

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

Size of Offering

 

We are offering up to $74,500,000 of our Common Shares in the Offering. We will begin deploying the proceeds of the Offering (that is, we will begin to invest in real estate projects) as soon as we begin raising capital, without waiting to raise any minimum amount.

Only the Company itself is selling securities in this Offering. No securities are being sold by or on behalf of any existing owner of the Company.

 

Who Can Buy Shares

 

Anyone 18 or older can buy Common Shares, regardless of income or net worth. If you are not an “accredited investor” the law limits how much you can invest. See “Limit on Amount a Non-Accredited Investor Can Invest.

 

Term of Offering

 

The Offering will begin as soon as our offering statement is “qualified” by the SEC. The Offering will end upon the earlier of (1) the date we have sold $74,500,000 of Common Shares (i.e., all the securities we are offering), (2) the date two years after it begins, or (3) the date we decide to end it.

 

Minimum Initial Investment

 

The minimum initial investment is $2,000, without regard to the price or the number of Shares.

 

Manner of Distribution

 

The Common Shares will be offered by the Company itself through www.upsideavenue.com, which we refer to as the “Site.” Purchases and sales of our Common Shares made through our Site will not be subject to any sales commissions or fees.

 

How To Invest

 

To buy Common Shares, visit the Site and register, locate the Offering, and follow the instructions. We will ask for certain information about you, including:

 

Your name and address

 

Your social security number (for tax reporting purposes)

 

Whether you are an “accredited investor”

 

Page | 27

 

 

If you are not an accredited investor, your income and net worth.

 

We will also ask you to sign our Investment Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 1A-4.

 

You will pay for your Common Shares using one of the options described on the Site.

 

The information you submit, including your signed Investment Agreement, is called your “subscription.” We will review your subscription and decide whether to accept it. We have the right to accept or reject subscriptions in our sole discretion, for any reason or for no reason.

 

Once we have accepted your subscription, we will notify you by email and the investment process will be complete. We will also notify you by email if we do not accept your subscription, although we might not explain why. We reserve the right to reject any subscription in whole or in part for any reason. If we reject your subscription, we will return all your money without interest or deduction.

 

Your Common Shares will be issued in electronic form only. We will not issue you a paper certificate representing your Common Shares.

 

Escrow

 

When you invest through our Site, your money will be held in an escrow account with Prime Trust, LLC, or other third-party financial institution that will serve as the escrow agent. Your investment will be held only until we review your subscription and decide whether to accept it. If we decide to reject your subscription for any reason, we will return your funds to you without interest or deduction.

 

Advertising the Offering

 

After the Offering has been “qualified” by the SEC, we intend to advertise the Offering using the Site and through other means, including public advertisements and audio-visual materials, in each case only as we authorize. Although these materials will not contain information that conflicts with the information in this Offering Circular and will be prepared with a view to presenting a balanced discussion of risk and reward with respect to the Common Shares, our advertising materials will not give a complete understanding of this Offering, the Company, or the Common Shares and are not to be considered part of this Offering Circular. The Offering is made only by means of this Offering Circular and prospective Investors must read and rely on the information provided in this Offering Circular in connection with their decision to invest in the Common Shares.

 

Supplements and Amendments to Offering Circular

 

From time to time we will supplement or amend this Offering Circular during the term of the Offering to reflect changes or additions to the information presented, as required by SEC rules.

 

Among other things, while the Offering is being conducted, we will file a “sticker supplement” pursuant to Rule 253(g) of SEC Regulation A for each project in which we intend to invest, at such time as we determine that there is a reasonable probability that we will invest. The supplement will describe the project and will disclose all compensation and fees paid to the Manager or its affiliates in connection with the acquisition.

 

Page | 28

 

 

At least once every three months, we will consolidate all such sticker supplements into a “post-qualification amendment” to this Offering Circular. Where appropriate, the post-qualification amendment will also include or incorporate by reference audited financial statements meeting the requirements of Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X for properties acquired during the distribution period.

 

We will also file, after the end of the distribution period, a current report on Form 1-U containing the financial statements and any additional information required by Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X (as applicable), to reflect each commitment (i.e., the signing of a binding purchase agreement) to purchase a property made after the end of the distribution period involving the use of 20% or more (on a cumulative basis) of the net proceeds of the Offering, and we will provide the information contained in such report to Investors at least once each quarter after the distribution period ends.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We expect the Offering itself to cost about $75,000, consisting of legal, accounting, and filing fees. All the remaining proceeds of the Offering will be used for marketing, to invest in real estate projects, to pay the Company’s normal operating costs, including fees to the Manager and its affiliates, employees, and for working capital. The following table estimates the use of the Offering proceeds under four scenarios:

 

    If We Raise
$3M
    If We Raise
$20M
    If We Raise $50M     If We Raise $75M  
Cost of Offering*   $ 90,000     $ 600,000       1,500,000     $ 2,250,000  
Investments   $ 2,910,000     $ 19,400,000     $ 48,500,000     $ 72,750,000  

 

* Includes marketing expenses.

 

We are not paying commissions to underwriters, brokers, or anybody else for selling or distributing Common Shares. Because we are not paying any commissions, more of your money can go to work for you.

 

INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT LIMITATIONS

 

A company that is treated as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) is subject to stringent and onerous regulation, like a mutual fund. Being an investment company isn’t illegal but is very expensive. If the Company were treated as an investment company it would be costly for our business and our Investors.

 

Under section 3(a) of the 1940 Act, the term “investment company” means any company that:

 

Is or holds itself out as being engaged primarily, or proposes to engage primarily, in the business of investing, reinvesting, or trading in securities;

 

Is engaged or proposes to engage in the business of issuing face-amount certificates of the installment type, or has been engaged in such business and has any such certificate outstanding; or

 

Is engaged or proposes to engage in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding, or trading in securities, and owns or proposes to acquire investment securities having a value exceeding 40% of the value of the company’s total assets (exclusive of Government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis.

 

Page | 29

 

 

Real estate itself is not a “security” for purposes of the 1940 Act. Thus, if all of the Company’s assets consisted of direct interests in real estate – direct ownership of land and buildings – the Company could not be an investment company.

 

However, the Company will own most assets through other companies. For example, the Company might own an interest in a real estate development through a limited liability company. Because an interest in a limited liability company is generally treated as a “security” within the meaning of the 1940 Act, the possibility remains that the Company could be treated as an investment company looking only at section 3(a)(1) of the statute.

 

However, section 3(b)(1) of the 1940 Act provides that “Any [company] primarily engaged, directly or through a wholly-owned subsidiary or subsidiaries, in a business or businesses other than that of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding, or trading in securities” will not be treated as an “investment company.” Further, 17 CFR §270.3a-1, a regulation issued by the SEC pursuant to section 3(b)(1), provides that a company will not be treated as an investment company if no more than 45% of the value of its assets (exclusive of government securities and cash items) consist of, and no more than 45% of its after-tax income is derived from, securities other than:

 

Government securities;

 

Securities issued by employees’ securities companies;

 

Securities issued by majority-owned subsidiaries which are not themselves investment companies; and

 

Securities issued by companies:

 

oWhich are controlled primarily by the company in question;

 

oThrough which the company in question engages in a business other than that of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities; and

 

oWhich are not themselves investment companies;

 

For these purposes:

 

A subsidiary is a “majority-owned subsidiary” if the parent owns at least 50% of the voting securities of the subsidiary;

 

A parent is deemed to “control” a subsidiary if it has the power to exercise a controlling influence of the management or policies of the subsidiary; and

 

A parent is deemed to “control primarily” a subsidiary if (1) it has the power to exercise a controlling influence of the management or policies of the subsidiary, and (2) this power is greater than the power of any other person.

 

Typically, the Company acquires interests in real estate indirectly, by acquiring an interest in a limited liability company or limited partnership that owns the real estate. The other entity typically is controlled by the Sponsor. When the Company makes an investment of this kind, it enters into an agreement with the property-owning entity that requires the entity to obtain the consent of the Company before taking certain significant actions, including (i) removing or replacing the entity’s general partner or manager; (ii) selling or otherwise disposing of all or any substantial part of the entity’s property; (iii) incurring any indebtedness other to trade creditors in the ordinary course of business; (iv) placing a lien, mortgage, deed of trust, or other encumbrance on any property of the entity, other than a lien in the nature of an equipment lease; (v) changing the nature of the entity’s business; or (vi) dissolving or liquidating the entity.

 

This being the case, the Company expects to satisfy the requirements of 17 CFR §270.3a-1 and, consequently, to be exempted from the definition of “investment company” under the 1940 Act.

 

Section 5.7 of the LLC Agreement requires the Manager to use commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy the requirements of 17 CFR §270.3a-1 and ensure that the Company is not treated as an “investment company” within the meaning of the 1940 Act.

SUMMARY OF LLC AGREEMENT

 

The Company as a whole is governed by an agreement captioned “First Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement” dated September 29, 2023. We refer to this as the “LLC Agreement.”

 

This summary is qualified in its entirety by the LLC Agreement itself, which is included as Exhibit 1A-2E.

 

Formation and Ownership

 

The Company was formed as a Maryland corporation on October 17, 2017. Effective on March 18, 2022, the Company was converted to a Delaware limited liability company.

 

Under Delaware law, the ownership interests of a limited liability company are referred to as “limited liability company interests.” Under the LLC Agreement, the limited liability company interests in the Company are referred to as “Shares” and the owners are referred to as “Members.”

 

Shares and Ownership

 

The Company has authorized 10,000,000 Shares, consisting of 5,000,000 “Common Shares” and 5,000,000 “Preferred Shares.” The Company has not issued any Preferred Shares.

 

When the Company was a Maryland corporation it had once class of stock issued and outstanding: voting common stock. When the Company converted into a Delaware limited liability company each outstanding share of voting common stock was converted into one Common Share. Hence, as of the date of the conversion the Company was owned by exactly the same people who owned it before the conversion, in exactly the same proportions.

 

Management

 

The Manager has complete discretion over all aspects of the business conducted by the Company. For example, the Manager may (i) admit new members to the Company; (ii) enter into contracts on behalf of the Company; (iii) borrow money; (iv) acquire and dispose of assets; (v) determine the timing and amount of distributions to Members; (vi) create new classes of limited liability company interests; (vii) determine the information to be provided to the Members; (viii) grant liens and other encumbrances on the assets of the Company; (ix) and dissolve the Company.

 

Investors who purchase Common Shares will not have any right to vote on any issue other than certain amendments to the LLC Agreement, or to remove and replace the Manager.

 

The Manager can be removed for “cause” under a procedure set forth in section 6.9 of the LLC Agreement.

 

The term “cause” includes:

 

An uncured breach of the LLC Agreement or the Management Agreement by the Manager; or

 

The bankruptcy of the Manager; or

 

Certain misconduct on the part of the Manager, if the individual responsible for the misconduct is not terminated.

 

A vote to remove the Manager for cause must be approved by Members owning at least 75% of the outstanding Common Shares. Whether “cause” exists would then be decided in arbitration proceedings conducted under the rules of the American Arbitration Association.

 

If the Manager is removed or resigns, a replacement will be chosen by the holders of the majority of the Common Shares then issued and outstanding.

 

Page | 31

 

 

Exculpation and Indemnification of Manager

 

The LLC Agreement protects the Manager, its affiliates, their members, managers, officers, employees, and agents, and the officers, employees, and agents of the Company from lawsuits brought by Investors or other parties. For example, it provides that such persons will not be responsible to Investors or the Company for mistakes, errors in judgment, or other acts or omissions (failures to act) as long as the act or omission was not the result of fraud or willful misconduct by such persons. This limitation of liability is referred to as “exculpation.” The LLC Agreement also provides that these persons do not owe any fiduciary duties to the Company or its owners.

 

The LLC Agreement also requires the Company to indemnify (reimburse) the directors, officers and employees of the Company and their affiliates from losses, liabilities, and expenses they incur in performing their duties, provided that they (i) acted in good faith and in a manner believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, and (ii) the challenged conduct did not constitute fraud or willful misconduct, in either case as determined by a final, nonappealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. For example, if a third party sued the Manager on a matter related to the Company’s business, the Company would be required to indemnify the Manager for any losses or expenses it incurs in connection with the lawsuit, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, etc. However, this indemnification is not available where a court or other juridical or governmental body determines that the person to be indemnified is not entitled to indemnification under the standard described in the preceding sentence.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no exculpation or indemnification is permitted to the extent such exculpation or indemnification would be inconsistent with the requirements of federal or state securities laws or other applicable law.

 

The detailed rules for exculpation and indemnification are set forth in section 7 of the LLC Agreement.

 

Obligation to Contribute Capital

 

Once an Investor pays for his, her, or its Common Shares, he, she, or it will not be required to make any further contributions to the Company. However, if an Investor has wrongfully received a distribution he, she, or it might have to pay it back.

 

Personal Liability

 

No Investor will be personally liable for any of the debts or obligations of the Company.

 

Distributions

 

The manner in which the Company will distribute its available cash is described in “Securities Being Offered – Distributions.

 

Transfers and First Right of Refusal

 

In general, Investors may freely transfer their Common Shares. However, the Manager may prohibit a transfer that the Manager determines would jeopardize the status of the Company as a REIT.

 

If an Investor wants to sell Common Shares, the Investor must first offer the Common Shares to the Manager.

 

Death, Disability, Etc.

 

If an Investor who is a human being (as opposed to an Investor that is a legal entity) should die or become incapacitated, the Investor or his, her or its successors will continue to own the Investor’s Common Shares.

 

Mandatory Redemption

 

The Manager may cause the Company to redeem (purchase) the Common Shares owned by an Investor in some circumstances (in effect kicking the Investor out of the deal) as described in “Securities Being Offering – Mandatory Redemptions.

 

Page | 32

 

 

“Drag-Along” Right

 

If the Manager wants to sell the business conducted by the Company, it may affect the transaction as a sale of the assets owned by the Company or as a sale of all the Interests in the Company. In the latter case, Investors will be required to sell their Common Shares as directed by the Manager, receiving the same amount they would have received had the transaction been structured as a sale of assets.

 

Limited Right of Redemption

 

Investors have a limited right to cause the Company to redeem (buy back) their Common Shares. See “Securities Being Offering – Limited Right of Redemption.

 

Electronic Delivery

 

All documents, including all tax-related documents, will be transmitted by the Company to Investors via electronic delivery.

 

Amendment

 

The Manager may amend the LLC Agreement unilaterally (that is, without the consent of anyone else) for a variety of purposes, including to:

 

Cure ambiguities or inconsistencies in the LLC Agreement;

 

Add to its own obligations or responsibilities;

 

Change the name of the Company;

 

Ensure that the Company (including the Company) satisfies applicable laws, including tax and securities laws; and

 

Ensure that the Company is eligible to be treated as a REIT.

 

An amendment that has, or could reasonably be expected to have, an adverse effect on Investors, requires the consent of the Manager and Investors holding a majority of the Common Shares.

 

An amendment that would require an Investor to make additional capital contributions or impose personal liability on an Investor requires the consent of the Manager and each affected Investor.

 

Information Rights

 

Within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, we will provide Investors with (i) a statement showing in reasonable detail the computation of the distributions made by the Company, (ii) audited financial statements of the Company, (iii) a statement of the income and expenses of the Company, and (iv) a description of the Company’s investments.

 

As a “tier 2” issuer under Regulation A, the Company may also be required to provide investors with additional information on an ongoing basis, including annual audited financial statements, annual reports filed on SEC Form 1-K, semiannual reports filed on SEC Form 1-SA, special financial reports filed on SEC Form 1-K, and current reports on SEC Form 1-U. If, however, our Common Shares are held “of record” by fewer than 300 persons, these reporting obligations could be terminated.

 

A Member’s right to see additional information or inspect the books and records of the Company is limited by the LLC Agreement.

SUMMARY OF MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

 

The Company entered into an agreement captioned “Management Services Agreement” with the Manager effective on May 1, 2022 (the “Management Agreement”). The following summarizes some of the key terms of the Management Agreement. However, this summary is qualified by the Management Agreement itself, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 1A-6A.

 

Duties of Manager

 

The duties of the Manager fall into several categories:

 

Investment Management: The Manager is responsible for all aspects of the Company’s investing activities, including developing investment guidelines, evaluating possible investments, conducting due diligence, arranging financing, and evaluating possible sales.

 

Capital Formation: The Manager is responsible for managing and supervising one or more offerings of securities on behalf of the Company, including this Offering.

 

Asset Management: The Manager is responsible for managing and monitoring the assets of the Company.

 

Accounting and Administrative: The Manager is responsible for maintaining the books and records of the Company.

 

Member Services: The Manager is responsible for shall managing and coordinating distributions and payments to Members; distributing reports, updates, and other information to Members; handling redemption requests from Members; and provide services in the nature of investor relations.

 

Compensation of Manager

 

As compensation for its services under the Management Agreement, the Manager is entitled to a fee equal to one-half of one percent (0.5%) of the Company’s net asset value as of the last day of the previous quarter.

 

Term of Management Agreement

 

The Management Agreement will remain in effect for as long as the Manager is the manager of the Company.

 

FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

 

The following summarizes some of the federal income tax consequences of the Company and Investors. This summary is based on the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), regulations issued by the Internal Revenue Service (“Regulations”), and administrative rulings and court decisions, all as they exist today. The tax laws, and therefore the federal income tax consequences of acquiring Common Shares, could change in the future.

 

This is only a summary, applicable to a generic Investor. Your personal situation could differ. We encourage you to consult with your own tax advisor before investing.

 

Federal Income Taxation of the Company

 

We intend to elect to be taxed as a “real estate investment trust,” or “REIT,” beginning with our first taxable year.

 

Assuming that we qualify as a REIT, the Company itself will generally not be subject to federal income taxes on net income that is currently distributed to shareholders. The Company will, however, be subject to federal income tax as follows:

 

We will be taxed at regular corporate tax rates on any undistributed REIT taxable income, including undistributed net capital gains.

 

Page | 34

 

 

A REIT may generally be subject to the “alternative minimum tax.”

 

If we have (i) net income from the sale or other disposition of “foreclosure property” which is held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business or (ii) other non-qualifying income from foreclosure property, we will be subject to tax at the highest corporate rate on such income.

 

If the Company has net income from “prohibited transactions” (which are, in general, certain sales or other dispositions of property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business other than foreclosure property), such income will be subject to a tax of 100% of the net income from such prohibited transactions.

 

If we are able to maintain our qualification as a REIT despite any failure to satisfy either the 75% or 95% income test (discussed below), we will be subject to a 100% tax on an amount equal to (a) the gross income attributable to the greater of the amount by which the Company fails the 75% or 95% of income test multiplied by (b) a specified fraction.

 

If we maintain our qualification as a REIT, despite any failure to satisfy the REIT asset tests (discussed below), then we will have to pay a tax equal to the greater of $50,000 or the highest marginal corporate tax rate multiplied by the net income generated by the qualifying assets.

 

A REIT will be subject to a 4.0% excise tax if it fails to make certain minimum distributions each calendar year.

 

A 35% tax will be imposed on the excess inclusions allocable to disqualified entities that hold interests in the REIT.

 

If a REIT acquires any asset from a C corporation (i.e., generally a corporation subject to full corporate-level tax) in a carryover basis transaction (or if a REIT such as the Company holds assets beginning on the first day of the first taxable year for which the Company qualifies as a REIT) and the REIT subsequently recognizes gain on the disposition of such asset during the 10-year period (the Recognition Period) beginning on the date on which the asset was acquired by the REIT (or the REIT first qualified as a REIT), then the excess of: (a) the fair market value of the assets as of the beginning of the applicable Recognition Period, over (b) the REIT’s adjusted basis in such assets as of the beginning of such Recognition Period will be subject to tax at the highest regular corporate rate, pursuant to guidelines issued by the Service (the Built-In Gain Rules).

 

A REIT will be subject to a tax equal to 100% of re-determined rents, re-determined deductions, and excess interest between a REIT and its taxable REIT subsidiary.

 

A REIT will be subject to the personal holding company tax, if the REIT qualifies as a personal holding company and has undistributed personal holding company income.

 

If we failed to satisfy one or more of the technical requirements described below, we might nevertheless be entitled to be treated as a REIT under certain “relief” provisions. Otherwise, we would be subject to tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates, with no deduction allowed for distributions to shareholders. The resulting corporate income tax liability would significantly reduce the cash available for distribution to Investors.

 

Requirements for Qualifying as a REIT

 

To qualify as a REIT, we must elect to be treated as a REIT and meet certain requirements related to our organization, income, assets and distributions. Each set of requirements is discussed in turn below.

 

Organizational Requirements

 

The Code defines a REIT as a corporation, trust or association:

 

Managed by one or more trustees or directors;

 

The beneficial ownership of which is evidenced by transferable shares, or by transferable certificates of beneficial ownership;

 

Which (but for sections 856 through 859 of the Code) would be taxable as a domestic corporation;

 

Which is neither a financial institution nor an insurance company within the meaning of the applicable provisions of the Code;

The beneficial ownership of which is held by at least 100 persons;

 

During the last half of each taxable year, is not closely held, i.e., not more than 50% of the value of its outstanding stock is owned, directly or indirectly, by or for five or fewer “individuals,” as defined in the Code to include certain entities;

 

Files an election or continues such election to be taxed as a REIT on its return for each taxable year;

 

Uses the calendar year as its taxable year; and

 

Meets other tests described below, including with respect to the nature of its assets and income and the amount of its distributions.

 

Income Test Requirements

 

To maintain qualification as a REIT, on an annual basis we must meet the following two gross income requirements:

 

At least 75% of our gross income for the taxable year must be derived from, among other things, rents from real property (with some exceptions), interest on obligations secured by mortgages, and certain gains on the sales of property.

 

In addition to deriving 75% of our gross income from, among other things, the sources listed above, at least 95% of the REIT’s gross income for the taxable year must be derived from the above-described qualifying income, or from dividends, interest or gains from the sale or disposition of stock or other securities that are not dealer property.

 

To satisfy the gross income requirements any “rents from real property” received must meet the following conditions:

 

The amount of rent must not be based in whole or in part on the income or profits of any person, but can be based on a fixed percentage of receipts or sales;

 

The rent cannot be from a tenant of which we and our affiliates own 10% or more of (i) the total combined voting power of all classes of voting stock, or total value of shares of all classes of stock, if a corporate tenant, or (ii) the interests in the assets or net profits of an entity, if not a corporate tenant;

 

The rent cannot be attributable to personal property unless it is leased in connection with real property and the rent attributable to such personal property is less than or equal to 15% of the total rent received for the taxable year attributable to both the real and personal property leased under such lease; and

 

The rent cannot be attributable to services furnished or rendered in connection with the rental of real property, unless such services are customarily provided in connection with the rental of real property, whether or not such charges are separately stated.

 

We do not anticipate deriving rent attributable to personal property leased in connection with real property that exceeds 15% of the total rent attributable to such lease.

 

We may provide certain services with respect to our properties. We believe that these services will only be of the type that are usually or customarily rendered in connection with the rental of space for occupancy and that are not otherwise rendered to the tenants. Therefore, we believe that the provision of such customary services will not cause rents received with respect to our properties to fail to qualify as “rents from real property.” Non-customary services and services rendered primarily for the tenants’ convenience will be provided by an independent contractor or a taxable REIT subsidiary to avoid jeopardizing the qualification of rent as “rents from real property.”

 

Except for amounts received with respect to certain investments of cash reserves, we anticipate that substantially all of our gross income will be derived from sources that will allow us to satisfy the income tests described above; however, we can make no assurance in this regard.

Asset Test Requirements

 

At the close of each quarter of the taxable year, we must also satisfy the following four tests related to the nature and diversification of our assets:

 

At least 75% of the value of our total assets must be represented by real estate assets, cash and cash items (including receivables) and government securities;

 

No more than 25% of the value of our total assets can be represented by securities (other than those securities includible in the 75% asset test);

 

No more than 20% of the value of our total assets can be represented by securities of one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries; and

 

With the exception of taxable REIT subsidiaries and those securities includible under the 75% asset test, we may not own:

 

oSecurities of any one issuer whose value exceeds 5% of the value of our total assets;

 

oMore than 10% of any one issuer’s outstanding voting securities; and

 

oMore than 10% of the value of the outstanding securities of any one issuer.

 

Annual Distribution Requirements

 

To qualify as a REIT, we must meet the following annual distribution requirements:

 

We must distribute (other than capital gain distributions) to our beneficiaries an amount at least equal to the sum of: (i) 90% of the REIT taxable income (computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction and by excluding our net capital gain), and (ii) 90% of the net income, if any, from foreclosure property in excess of the excise tax on net income from foreclosure property, minus the sum of certain items of non-cash income.

 

We must distribute during each calendar year at least the combined sum of 85% of our ordinary income for that year; 95% of our capital gain net income for that year; and any undistributed taxable income from prior periods.

 

We may not dispose of any asset that is subject to the Built-In Gain Rules during the 10-year period beginning on the date on which we acquired the asset.

 

We expect that our REIT taxable income will be less than our cash flow due to the allowance of depreciation and other non-cash charges in computing REIT taxable income. Accordingly, we anticipate that we generally will have sufficient cash or liquid assets to enable us to satisfy the 90% distribution requirement. It is possible, however, that we may not have sufficient cash or other liquid assets to meet the 90% distribution requirement or to distribute such greater amount as may be necessary to avoid income and excise tax. In such event, we may find it necessary to borrow funds to pay the required distribution or, if possible, pay taxable stock dividends in order to meet the distribution requirement.

 

Taxation Of Investors

 

How Income is Reported To Investors

 

Each Investor will receive a Form 1099 from the Company each year, and will transfer the information onto his, her, or its personal tax return. Investors will not receive a Form K-1 from the Company.

 

Page | 37

 

 

Taxation of Distributions

 

Distributions to Investors other than “capital gain dividends” will be treated as taxable dividends up to the amount of the Company’s current or accumulated earnings and profits. To the extent that we make a distribution in excess of our positive current or accumulated earnings and profits, the distribution will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital, up to an Investor’s tax “basis” in his, her, or its Common Shares, then as capital gain.

 

Dividends that we declare in October, November, or December of any year payable to stockholders of record on a specified date in any such month are treated as both paid by us and received by Investors on December 31 of that year, provided that we actually pay the dividends in the following quarter.

 

Dividends from the Company will not be treated as “qualifying dividends,” which are eligible for lower tax rates (generally the same tax rates that apply to long term capital gains).

 

“Capital gain dividends” will be reported as long-term capital gains on the tax returns of Investors (to the extent that they do not exceed our actual net capital gain for the taxable year), without regard to how long an Investor has owned his, her, or its Common Shares.

 

Taxation of Losses

 

Because the Company will be taxed as a corporation, and not as a partnership, Investors may not report on their own income tax returns any tax losses incurred by the Company.

 

Additional Medicare Tax

 

Higher-income taxpayers are subject to an additional 3.8% tax on net “investment income.” Income Investors receive from the Company will be included as “investment income” for these purposes.

 

Tax on Sale of Common Shares

 

An Investor who sells Common Shares generally will realize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the selling price and his, her, or its adjusted tax “basis” in the Common Shares. If the Investor has owned the Common Shares for at least one year, any gain would generally be treated as long term capital gain.

 

Passive Activity Losses

 

Taxable distributions from the Company will not be treated as “passive activity income” under Code section 469 and may not be offset against losses from passive activities.

 

Withholding Taxes

 

We might be required to withhold federal income tax from distributions under certain circumstances, e.g., where an Investor has failed to provide us with a valid taxpayer identification number.

 

Each Investor must either report Company items on his tax return consistent with the treatment on the information return of the Company or file a statement with his tax return identifying and explaining the inconsistency. Otherwise the IRS may treat such inconsistency as a computational error and re-compute and assess the tax without the usual procedural protections applicable to federal income tax deficiency proceedings.

 

The Manager will serve as the “tax matters partner” of the Company and will generally control all proceedings with the IRS.

 

The Code imposes interest and a variety of potential penalties on underpayments of tax.

Other Tax Consequences

 

The foregoing discussion addresses only selected issues involving federal income taxes and does not address the impact of other taxes on an investment in the Company, including federal estate, gift, or generation-skipping taxes, or State and local income or inheritance taxes. Prospective Investors should consult their own tax advisors with respect to such matters.

 

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

Neither the Company itself, the Manager, the Sponsor, or any of their respective employees, officers, directors, managers, or members is currently engaged in any material legal proceedings, except as provided in “Our Management Team – Legal Proceedings.”

 

Neither the Company itself, the Manager, the Sponsor, or any of their respective employees, officers, directors, managers, or members is, to the knowledge of the Company, currently the subject of any investigation or proceedings by any governmental authorities.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION

 

Operating Results

 

The Company was formed on October 17, 2017. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had invested a total of $4,938,021 in seven separate real estate project investments, six of which are invested in multifamily projects, and one is invested in a land development project: 

 

Name of Project

  Amount of
Investment
    Nature of
Investment
The Quinn at Westchase   $ 2,000,000     Equity
Water Ridge Apartments   $ 540,000     Equity
Capitol on 28th   $ 210,000     Equity
Newport Apartments   $ 115,000     Equity
Lookout at Comanche Hill Apartments   $ 780,500     Equity
The Jax Apartments   $ 761,038     Equity
CG Sunset Land, LLC   $ 531,483     Equity

 

Page | 39

 

 

For the 12-month period ending December 31, 2022, the Company had a net loss of ($139,832).

 

Revenue collections in the Company’s real estate projects have been strong in the post-covid environment and despite a few pending evictions across the portfolio, the projects are generally expected to perform similarly in the future.

 

We are not aware of matters that have had an impact on reported operations that are not expected to have an impact on future operations.

 

Material Changes in Financial Line Items from 2021 to 2022

 

On the Balance Sheet:

 

Asset management fees payable increased due to accruing asset management fees for 2022.

 

Real estate investments at cost increased by $369,163 due to an additional investment of $534,500 in The Jax Apartments net of a return of capital of $165,337 from Casoro Jax (The Jax Apartments).

 

Decrease in redemptions payable of $2,620 due to investors redeeming shares in 2022, with a balance at year-end of $61,014 in redemptions payable.

 

On the Income Statement:

 

Net Income decreased by $279,040 for 2022 due to reduced interest and distribution income for 2022.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company is seeking to raise up to $74,500,000 of capital in the Offering by selling Common Shares to Investors.

 

The Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures as of December 31, 2022, and has none today. Capital expenditures required by the individual real estate projects are raised during the initial acquisition of the property. Generally, no further capital is required from the Company during the operations and enhancement of each real estate project.

 

The Company does have certain fixed operating expenses. If it raises additional capital and acquires more projects these fixed operating expenses will, by definition, represent a lower percentage of our overall revenue.

 

Trend Information

 

The Company believes its primary market risk is interest rate risk. To mitigate this risk, our Manager follows certain practices such as (1) balancing levels of fixed and floating rate debt and (2) refinancing our outstanding debt when we believe doing so is advantageous to our investors.

 

Page | 40

 

 

Investment capital flowing into the multifamily sector has increased substantially, making it increasingly competitive to source attractive investment opportunities. Additionally, rising interest rates may negatively impact the selling price of certain of our assets.

 

We had initially planned to invest in, among other types of properties, student housing and senior living housing. With many colleges and universities shut down in whole or in part, or pursuing an entirely virtual academic year, the demand for student housing decreased as students increasingly decided to live with their parents instead of living in student housing. Additionally, the dramatic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on senior communities is well-documented and had a deleterious effect on the demand for such housing. As a result, we had to tailor our investment strategy to accommodate for these new realities, but we believe the faster-than-anticipated development and deployment of vaccines will again make these properties attractive investment candidates in the near future.

 

While we expect at least some of these trends to continue in the short term, we believe there is significant cause for optimism regarding the Company’s potential moving forward. Among the reasons, according to Federal Reserve data during the fourth quarter of 2021, as it specifically pertains to our largest two markets where our investments are located:

 

San Antonio unemployment rate dropped from 4.2% to 3.5% over the last 12 months.

 

Median Household Income in San Antonio increased by 27% over the last five years.

 

San Antonio population grew by 14% over the last 5 years.

 

Dallas Fort Worth (DFW) unemployment rate dropped from 6.4% to 4.8% over the last 12 months.

 

Wages in DFW increased by 25% over the last 5 years.

 

DFW population grew by 9% over the last 5 years.

Independent Auditor’s Report

 

To the Board of Directors
Multi-Housing Income REIT, LLC

 

Opinion

 

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Multi-Housing Income REIT, LLC, which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Multi-Housing Income REIT, LLC as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAS”). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of Multi-Housing Income REIT, LLC and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about Multi-Housing Income REIT, LLC’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are available to be issued.

 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the consolidated financial statements.

 

F-3

 

 

 

In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:

 

Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

 

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of Multi-Housing Income REIT, LLC’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

 

Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

 

Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about Multi-Housing Income REIT, LLC’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

 

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

December 31, 2022 and 2021

 

 

 

Note 1 – Organization and nature of operation

 

Multi-Housing Income REIT, Inc. was formed as a Maryland corporation on October 17, 2017 to invest in and manage a diversified portfolio of multifamily properties located in target markets within the continental U.S. in the areas of student housing, multi- housing, conventional apartments and senior living. On March 1, 2022, the Company converted from a Maryland corporation to a Delaware limited liability company. The name of the Company was thereby also changed from Multi-Housing Income REIT, Inc. to Multi-Housing Income REIT, LLC (the “Company”). The Company has elected to continue to be treated as a corporation for federal and state tax purposes. The Company is externally managed by Casoro Investment Advisory Firm, LLC (“Manager”), which is an affiliate of the sponsor, Casoro Capital Partners, LP (“Sponsor”). The Manager and Sponsor are each wholly-owned subsidiaries of Casoro Capital, LLC.

 

The Company’s investing and management activities related to commercial real estate are all considered a single reportable business segment for financial reporting purposes. All of the investments the Company has made to date have been in domestic commercial real estate assets with similar economic characteristics, and the Company evaluates the performance of all of its investments using similar criterion.

 

Pursuant to the Form 1-A filed with the SEC with respect to the offering (the “Offering”) of up to $50,000,000 in common shares, the initial purchase price for all shares was $10.00 per share as of December 31, 2021. The Offering was declared to be qualified by the SEC on June 18, 2018. The Offering expired during 2021.

Use of estimates:

 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual events and results could differ from those assumptions and estimates.

 

Cash and cash equivalents:

 

Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits held at federally insured financial institutions. At times, amounts held at these financial institutions, may exceed the amount insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. To date the Company has not experienced any losses on cash.

 

Commercial real estate investments:

 

The majority of the Company’s investments are limited partnership interests of entities that own commercial real estate and less than 10% of the net asset value of the entity the Company invested in. Therefore, the Company carries the value of these investments at cost, until there is an event that would require adjustment to the value, such as a return of capital in the form of a distribution. There are five investments that exceed 10% of the net asset value of the entity, Casoro JAX LP, Casoro LACH LP, PPA Water Ridge, LP, CG Jax Investors, LP, and CG Sunset Land LLC. Because these investments exceed 10% of the net asset value of the entity, the Company has accounted for these investments using the equity method reflecting equity in gains of the investee to the Company of $20,901 and $14,009 which is represented on statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

 

The summarized balance sheet and statement of operations of the operating entities utilizing the equity method at December 31, 2022 and 2021 is as follows:

Income taxes:

 

The Company intends to operate and be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to its shareholders. As a REIT, the Company generally is not subject to federal corporate income tax on that portion of its taxable income that is currently distributed to shareholders. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company has not qualified as a REIT and thus has not filed as a REIT.

 

The Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities consisted of the following at December 31, 2022 and 2021:

 

   2022   2021 
Current deferred tax assets  -   - 
Noncurrent deferred tax assets  $25,765    - 
           
Current deferred tax liabilities   -   $(30,426)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

December 31, 2022 and 2021

 

 

 

The temporary differences that give rise to deferred income tax assets relate primarily to net operating losses generated by the Company. The amount of tax expense differs from the amount of expense that would result from applying the statutory rates to pre-tax income primarily due to certain nondeductible expenses and a valuation allowance.

 

The Company has no uncertain tax positions, as defined by US GAAP, as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.

 

At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of $2,025,916 and $1,286,568 respectively.

 

Organization and offering costs:

 

The Company expenses organization costs as incurred and offering costs, when incurred, will be deferred and charged to shareholders’ equity. The deferred offering costs will be charged against the gross proceeds of the offering when received or written off in the event that the offering is not successfully completed. Organization and offering costs of the Company are initially being paid by the Manager and/or affiliates on behalf of the Company. The Manager and/or affiliates will be reimbursed for organization and offering expenses incurred in conjunction with the offering subject to achieving a minimum capital raise of $3,000,000. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had $548,080 and $459,951, respectively, in offering costs of which $27,032 and $0 has been deferred and $521,048 and $459,951 has been amortized.

Note 3 – Going concern

 

As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $139,832 and net cash used in operating activities of $241,460 for the year ended December 31, 2022. Those factors and uncertainties with respect to the Company's ability to generate sufficient cash flows to fund its operations create uncertainty about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Management is seeking qualification with the SEC for a third round of fund raising in the third quarter of 2023. This will provide immediate cashflows to invest in both operations and future projects. Management is anticipating the sale of one of the assets the Company is invested in by the fourth quarter of 2023. During this time, the Manager has paused redemptions similar to other REITs, to protect our operations and our non-redeemed shareholders. Thus, management believes that it will have the liquidity to fund its operations and meet its obligations as they become due for at least the 12-month period beginning on July 3, 2023.

Re:Multi-Housing Income REIT, LLC (the “Company”)

Amendment No. 1 to Offering Statement on Form 1-A

Filed August 10, 2023

File No. 024-12305

 

Dear Sir/Madam:

 

This is in response to your letter of September 6, 2023. We have copied below the comments from your letter and provided the company’s response below each comment.

 

Amendment No. 1 to Offering Statement on Form 1-A filed August 10, 2023

 

Your Comment #1 - General 

It appears you commenced your Form 1-A offering, file # 024-10764, on June 18, 2018, and that offering is continuing since you submitted a Form 253G2 on January 20, 2023. Please provide your analysis of how you are in compliance with the requirement that you update your offering statement on an annual basis as set forth in Rule 252(f)(2)(i) of Regulation A. Also, please clarify whether you have sold securities since the date that was 12 months after the qualification date of June 18, 2018. Please advise us of the number of securities and dollar amounts sold along with the dates of sales after June 18, 2019. We may have further comment.

 

Our Response:

The Company has previously conducted two offerings under Regulation A. The first offering was qualified by the Commission on June 18, 2018, as you note. The second offering was qualified on July 22, 2022.

Your Comment # 2 – General 

We note you indicate on your cover page that you are offering $75 million of capital in common shares in this offering. Rule 251 requires offerings pursuant to Regulation A to reduce the $75 million cap by the amount of gross proceeds received for all securities sold pursuant to other offering statements within the 12 months before the start of the current offering. Please revise your cover page as appropriate and also supplementally advise us of the amount of proceeds received pursuant to any other offering statements within the prior 12-month period.

 

Our Response:

During the 12 months ending September 30, 2023, the Company sold $369,253.77 of securities in its second Regulation A offering. The Offering Statement has been revised to state that the Company is seeking to raise $74,500,000 in this offering.

 

2

 

 

Your Comment #3 - General 

We note your website at https://upsideavenue.com/property-portfolio/ indicates a projected annual dividend and projected annual return for each of the thirteen noted properties the company is invested in with some “active” and some “completed”. We also note that your Form 1-A indicates, on page 9, that “To date, the Company has not acquired any real estate directly. Instead, the Company has invested only as an investor in projects sponsored by the Sponsor.” Please note that it is unclear to us how you have a reasonable basis to make these estimates. See Securities Act Rule 175. Please advise us of the reasonable basis for the projections or revise your website to remove the noted projections.

 

Our Response:

The Company has deleted the projections from its website.

 

Your Comment #4 - General 

Please add a dilution section or advise. Refer to Item 4 of Form 1-A.

 

Our Response:

Item 4 states:

 

“Where there is a material disparity between the public offering price and the effective cash cost to officers, directors, promoters and affiliated persons for shares acquired by them in a transaction during the past year, or that they have a right to acquire, there must be included a comparison of the public contribution under the proposed public offering and the average effective cash contribution of such persons.”

 

Shares in the Company have not been offered or sold to “insiders” at lower prices than the prices offered to the public. Hence, a section on dilution would not be required or appropriate.

 

Your Comment #5 - General 

We note that, as of the date of this Offering Circular, you have invested a total of $5,618,858 in nine different real estate projects and primarily in projects sponsored by your Sponsor. Please provide a detailed description of the projects you invested, including your ownership percentage in each project.

 

Our Response:

The Offering Circular has been amended to describe the projects the Company owns currently.

 

Your Comment #6 - General 

Please disclose in your offering circular that you will follow the parameters of the undertaking contained in Item 20.D of Industry Guide 5 in updating your offering circular to reflect acquisitions during the distribution period.

 

Our Response:

I believe the section of the Offering Circular captioned “Supplements and Amendments to Offering Circular” provides the undertaking you are looking for. Please advise if this is incorrect.

 

3

 

 

Your Comment #7 - General 

We note your website includes quarterly reports. However, it appears that the website contains quarterly reports only up to Q3-2022. Please revise your website to include any additional quarterly reports you have produced.

 

Our Response:

The Company has removed all quarterly reports from its website.

 

Your Comment #8 - General 

We note that the offering statement states that the Company expects to satisfy the requirements of 17 CFR §270.3a-1 (“Rule 3a-1”) and, consequently, to be exempted from the definition of “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“1940 Act”).

 

Please provide a legal analysis supporting the Company’s expectation that it will satisfy the requirements of rule 3a-1. In particular:
   
oPlease include in your analysis all relevant calculations under rule 3a-1(a) as of the most recent fiscal quarter end, identifying each constituent part of the numerator(s) and denominator(s). Please also describe and discuss any other substantive determinations and/or characterizations of assets that are material to your calculations.

 

oWithout limiting the generality of the foregoing, please provide factual details and a detailed legal analysis regarding whether the Company views each project entity it holds to be (i) controlled primarily by the Company, (ii) through which the Company engages in a business other than that of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities, and (iii) which are not investment companies, each as used in rule 3a-1(a)(4).

 

oThe staff notes that the Company’s initial Regulation A offering was made in 2018. Accordingly, please explain whether, and on what basis, the Company was an “investment company” for purposes of the 1940 Act during the period from 2018 to the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter end. Please provide legal analysis to support your position.

 

Please provide a detailed legal analysis regarding whether the Company meets the definition of an “investment company” under Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the 1940 Act. In your response, please address, in detail, each of the factors outlined in Tonapah Mining Company of Nevada, 26 SEC 426 (1947) and provide legal and factual support for your analysis of each such factor.

 

4

 

 

Our Response:

Please note:

 

Casoro Investment Advisory Firm LLC is the sole Manager of the Company.
   
Casoro Investment Advisory Firm LLC is wholly-owned by the Sponsor, Casoro Capital Partners, LLC.
   
Casoro Capital Partners, LLC is wholly-owned by PPA Group LLC.
   
PPA Group LLC is owned by Monte Lee-Wen and Nalie Lee-Wen.
   
Casoro Capital Partners, LLC or an affiliate is the general partner (in the case of a limited partnership) or manager (in the case of a limited liability company) of each project-owning entity (a “Project Entity”).

 

Thus, the Manager of the Company, and by implication the Company itself, has complete control over every Project Entity.

 

In addition, as described in the Offering Circular, the Company enters into a contract with each project entity giving the Company extensive control rights over the Project Entity.

 

Given this structure, we believe the Company is not an “investment company” within the meaning of the 1940 Act.

 

First, the interests in Project Entities are not “securities” in the hands of Company. In SEC v. Howey, the Supreme Court established a four-part test to determine the existence of a security. The fourth part of the test is whether profits are “to be derived from the efforts of others.” Here, where the Manager of the Company also controls the Project Entities, the interests in the Project Entities held by the Company are akin to general partnership interests. Because a general partner does not rely on the “efforts of others,” a general partnership is not treated as a security under the 1940 Act or any other federal securities laws.

 

As far as the 1940 Act is concerned, the Company bears no resemblance to the issuer in Tonapah Mining Company of Nevada. While the issuer there was once in the mining business, by the time of the events involved in the decision “Approximately 94 percent of its total assets (exclusive of cash and United States Government bonds) [were] represented by investment securities and all of its net income is derived from interest, dividends or trading profits in such securities.” That issuer owned almost exclusively securities, while the Company owns no securities.

 

Second, because of the relationships among the parties as well as the contract the Company enters into with each Project Entity, the Company “primarily controls” each Project Entity, therefore qualifying for the exemption under Rule 3a-1.

 

Your Comment #9 - General 

Please advise if the Company expects to rely on an exclusion from “investment company” status other than rule 3a-1 in the future and provide a detailed legal analysis to support any such expectation.

 

Our Response:

Please refer to our response to Comment #8.

 

5

 

 

Your Comment #10 - General 

Please advise as to whether the Manager, Casoro Investment Advisory Firm LLC, is registered as an investment adviser. If the Manager has determined that it is not required to be so registered, please explain the legal basis or such determination.

 

Our Response:

Casoro Investment Advisory Firm LLC is not registered as an investment adviser. As noted in our response to Comment #8, the interests in Project Entities are not “securities” in the hands of the Company. The owners of the Manager are also the managers of each Project Entity. Hence, the Manager of the Company is not providing advice with respect to securities.

 

Your Comment #11 – Cover Page 

We note your statement that “We may periodically raise or lower the price of the Common Shares during this Offering to reflect the value of the Company’s assets by filing a supplement or an amendment to this Offering Circular.” Please be advised that you cannot change your offering price by filing a supplement. Please revise your disclosure as appropriate.

 

Our Response:

The language has been changed.

 

Your Comment #12 – Cover Page 

We note that it appears, as noted on page 17, that the company will pay the manager a quarterly asset management fee equal to 0.5% of the company’s net asset value. Please revise to indicate how often you may periodically raise or lower the price of the common shares during the offering to reflect the value of the company’s assets.

 

Our Response:

There is no limit to how frequently the Company may raise or lower the price. Market conditions will dictate.

 

Your Comment #13 – Cover Page 

We note your statement that “You can read a complete description of these securities in ‘SECURITIES BEING OFFERED.’” Please revise to include the page number of the Securities Being Offered section. When you are cross-referencing in the offering circular please include the appropriate page number.

 

Our Response:

Although we are willing insert page numbers if you insist, there are two reasons why we would prefer not to. First, we believe it is unnecessary given the clarity of the headings. But more important, different people may read the Offering Circular in different formats, each with different page numbers.

 

6

 

 

Your Comment #14 – Cover Page 

Revise your cross-reference to the risk factors section to include the page number where the risk factors appear in the offering circular.

 

Our Response:

Please see our response to Comment #13.

 

Your Comment #15 – Cover Page

Please revise to add a pricing table on the cover page. See Item 1(e) in Form 1-A.

 

Our Response:

We have added a pricing table.

 

Your Comment #16 – Cover Page

Clarify that there is no established market for the common shares.

 

Our Response:

The following statement appears in “Risks of Investing – Limits on Transferability”: “There will be no established market for your Common Shares, meaning you could have difficulty finding a buyer.”

 

Your Comment #17 – Cover Page

Please revise your cover page to identify which disclosure format is being followed.

 

Our Response:

A statement has been added.

 

Your Comment #18 – Risks of Investing, page 1 

Please consider adding a Summary section that provides a summary of the information in the offering circular prior to your risk factors section.

 

Our Response:

We considered including a Summary but decided against it. We believe the cover page provides an adequate summary, i.e., it describes what the Company does and the securities it is offering.

 

7

 

 

Your Comment #19 – Limited Participation in Management, page 5 

We note that investors will not have a right to vote the common shares. Please revise your cover page to address that investors will not have a right to vote along with the resulting risks.

 

Our Response:

The cover page has been revised. In addition, please note that the following statement appears in Risks of Investing:

 

LIMITED PARTICIPATION IN MANAGEMENT: Investors will not have a right to vote or otherwise participate in managing the Company. For example, Investors will have no voice in selecting the projects in which the Company invests, deciding on the terms of the investment, or deciding when a project should be sold. Only those willing to give complete control to our management team should consider an investment in the Company.”

 

Your Comment #20 – Forum Selection Provision, page 5 

We note your Investment Agreement and LLC Agreement both provide that disputes will be handled solely in the state or federal courts located in or most geographically convenient to Austin, Texas. Please expand your disclosure to address related risk factors such as increased costs to bring a claim and whether such provisions may discourage or limit suits against you.

 

Our Response:

The risk factor captioned “Forum Selection Provision” has been expanded.

 

Your Comment #21 – Limitation on Rights in LLC Agreement, page 6 

We note that investors can remove the Manager only in very limited circumstances. Please expand your disclosure to describe such circumstances.

 

Our Response:

Removal of the Manager is described in detail in “Summary of LLC Agreement – Management.”

 

Your Comment #22 – Limitation on Rights in LLC Agreement, page 6 

We note that the LLC Agreement restricts investors rights to sell or otherwise transfer your common shares and that the LLC Agreement gives the Manager the right to buy back your common shares without your consent in certain circumstances. Please revise your cover page to address that the LLC Agreement restricts investors right to sell or otherwise transfer your common shares and that the Manager has the right to buy back your common shares without the investors consent in certain circumstances.

 

Our Response:

We have revised the cover page.

 

8

 

 

Your Comment #23 – Limitations on Rights in Investment Agreement, page 6 

Please clarify that the waiver of jury trial do not apply to claims arising under the federal securities laws and rules, and regulations promulgated thereunder.

 

Our Response:

A clarification has been added.

 

Your Comment #24 – Limitations on rights in Investment Agreement, page 6 

We note your disclosure that if investors lost their claim against you, investors would be required to pay your expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees. However, we do not see such a provision in your Investment Agreement. Please revise as appropriate.

 

Our Response:

The disclosure has been revised.

 

Your Comment #25 – Limits on Transferability, page 6 

Please expand your disclosure to state that investors may transfer their Common Shares only after providing the Manager with a certain written assurance mentioned on page 20.

 

Our Response:

The disclosure has been expanded.

 

Your Comment #26 – Regulation As An Investment Company, page 7 

We note that although you intend to conduct your business so that you are not treated as an investment company, you might not be successful. Please disclose the consequences if you were deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940. For example, please disclose that if you were deemed to be an investment company, you would be ineligible to conduct this offering under Regulation A.

 

Our Response:

Please see “Risks of Investing – Regulation as Investment Company.”

 

Your Comment #27 – Investments Through Other Entities, page 9 

We note that, for most of the time, your investments will be through other entities (“Project Entities”), and such Project Entities will be typically controlled by your Sponsor. Since it appears that you will own non-controlling interests in such Project Entities, please include a section within the Risks of Investing to address risks associated with owning non-controlling interests.

 

Our Response:

As noted in our response to Comment #8, the Manager of the Company exercises complete control over all Project Entities. Hence, the Company does not really own non-controlling interests in the sense that term is normally used. There is no action that could be taken by a Project Entity that is not consented to by the Company and its Manager.

 

9

 

 

Your Comment #28 – Our Company and Business

Summary of Our Company and its Investment Strategies, page 9 

On the cover page, we noted that you were formed to acquire interests in real estate assets “in the United States and elsewhere.” Here, however, we note that you were formed to invest in real estate assets “throughout the United States.” Please clarify whether you intend to invest in real estate assets that are only within the United States.

 

Our Response:

This has been clarified.

 

Your Comment #29 – Competition, page 10 

Please revise to address the risk to the company from the competition in more detail and state the possible consequences to the company from these risks. Additionally, please expand your disclosure by providing a basis for your statement that your Sponsor is “an award-winning real estate investment company.”

 

Our Response:

The disclosure involving competition has been expanded. References to the awards have been deleted.

 

Your Comment #30 – Our Organizational Structure, page 11 

With a view toward disclosure, please provide an organizational chart that illustrates to investors the relationships between you, your Manager, your Sponsor and your affiliates, including ownership percentages.

 

Our Response:

An organizational chart has been added.

 

Your Comment #31 – Our Sponsor’s Track Record

“Round Trip” Programs, page 12 

We note your statement that the “financial results of these 32 ‘round trip’ projects are as follows:” However, we do not see any inclusion of such results afterwards. Please clarify or revise your disclosure accordingly.

 

Our Response:

I apologize. The results have been added.

 

Your Comment #32 – Our Management Team, page 14 

Please revise your table to indicate the month and year of the start date for each employee with Casoro Capital Partners, LLC

 

Our Response:

Please revise this section to specifically disclose management’s business experience over the past five years and include dates of employment of Mehul Chavada, Dustin Gabriel, and Lea Allen. Please refer to Item 10(c) of Form 1-A.

 

Our Response:

This information has been added.

 

Your Comment #34 – Compensation of Management Fees, page 17 

We note that you, as an investor of interests in Project Entities, bear a “portion of fees” imposed on Project Entities. Please clarify whether your portion of such fees will be based on your pro rata shares in Project Entities. Moreover, regarding your estimate of $2,336,000 in total fees received by the Sponsor and its affiliates from all Project Entities, please disclose the portion of such fees that you bore.

 

Our Response:

We have clarified that the Company bears its pro rata share of all fees.

 

We have disclosed the total fees borne by the Company.

Our Response:

The disclosure has been revised.

 

Your Comment #36 – Certain Relations and Related Transactions, page 19 

We note that you entered into transactions with your Manager and Sponsor which are related parties. Regarding such related party transactions, please provide all information required by Item 13 of Form 1-A.

 

Our Response:

A section captioned “Summary of Management Agreement” has been added to the Offering Circular.

 

Item 13 states “Describe briefly any transactions or any currently proposed transactions” with related parties. All such transactions are already described in the Offering Circular. The section captioned “Compensation of Management” includes the information on related party transactions that is required by Item 13.

 

11

 

 

Your Comment #37 – Securities Being Offered

Price of Comon Shares, page 19 

We note that you may increase or decrease the price per Common Share to reflect changes in the value of your assets and the amount of your liabilities, which will be determined by the Manager in its sole and absolute discretion. Please clarify whether your pricing is based on the net asset value (“NAV”). Additionally, please provide us an analysis regarding your calculation of NAV, including the frequency and the process by which the value estimate will be determined, including the role of each of the parties involved in the process and the primary valuation methods which will be used. Address the key assumptions to be used in the primary valuation method, including the weighted average for each key assumption and a quantitative example of the sensitivity of the estimate to changes in assumptions. Provide cautionary language on valuation methods and the sensitivity of calculations. Please amend your filing to include these disclosures.

 

Our Response:

The disclosure has been revised.

 

Your Comment #38 – Distributions, page 20

We note that distributions will not be made to Investors who have not yet owned Common Shares for 90 days. Please include a section within the Risks of Investing to address such a risk.

 

Our Response:

A new risk factor has been added.

 

Your Comment #39 – Voting Rights, page 20

Our Response:

This information has been added.

Your Comment #40 – Limited Right of Redemption, page 21 

Please be advised that you are responsible for analyzing the applicability of the tender offer rules to your share redemption program, including Regulation 14E, which would apply to any tender offer for securities issued pursuant to the Regulation A exemption. To the extent you have questions about the tender offer rules, you may contact the Division’s Office of Mergers and Acquisitions at 202-551-3440. Similarly, we note that you may conduct the share redemption program during the offering period of the shares being qualified in this offering circular. Please be advised that you are responsible for analyzing the applicability of Regulation M to your share redemption program. We urge you to consider all the elements of your share redemption program in determining whether the program is consistent with the class relief granted by the Division of Market Regulation in the class exemptive letter granted Alston & Bird LLP dated October 22, 2007. To the extent you have questions as to whether the program is entirely consistent with that class exemption you may contact the Division of Trading and Markets.

 

Our Response:

Your comment is understood and acknowledge.

 

Your Comment # 41 – Plan of Distribution, How To Invest, page 23 

We note your Investment Agreement provides that investors may pay for the LLC Interest with cryptocurrency. We further note that such cryptocurrency will not be held by you, but instead will be converted into U.S. dollars by a reputable third party chosen by you, with the net proceeds paid to you. Please expand your disclosure to discuss the potential fees investors will have to pay to convert their cryptocurrency into U.S. dollars.

 

Our Response:

The Investment Agreement has been revised to remove this option.

 

Your Comment #42 – How To Invest, page 23 

We note your Investment Agreement provides that investors may pay for the common shares with cryptocurrency. Please revise your offering statement to address the risks to the company by accepting cryptocurrency as a payment for the common shares.

 

Our Response:

See our response to Comment #41.

 

Your Comment #43 – Escrow, page 24 

We note that you intend to hold payments tendered by the subscriber in an escrow account pending acceptance of the subscription. Please disclose your arrangement to place funds received in escrow on the cover page of your offering circular and clarify the duration during which you will make a determination to accept or reject the subscriptions.

 

Our Response:

This information has been added to the cover page.

 

13

 

 

Your Comment #44 – Use of Proceeds, page 25 

Please provide the disclosure required by Industry Guide 5. Refer to Item 3.B of Industry Guide 5.

 

Our Response:

The disclosure currently states the likely costs of the offering, as required by Item 3B, and identifies all the possible uses of proceeds. As indicated on the accompanying chart, the Company expects substantially all remaining proceeds to be invested in real estate assets. The Company is concerned that any effort to develop a more precise estimate of offering costs would not be sufficiently reliable, and hence not serve the interests of investors.

 

Your Comment #45 – Summary of LLC Agreement Management, page 27 

Please disclose the fiduciary obligation owned by your Manager to the investors. Please refer to Item 6.A. of Industry Guide 5.

 

Our Response:

These obligations are described in detail in “Exculpation and Indemnification.” In addition, there is a risk factor captioned “Limited Liability of Manager.”

 

Your Comment #46 - Exhibits 

We note you include a consent provided by your independent auditor at exhibit 11. Such consent refers to your Form 1-A filed July 26, 2023. As you have amended your Form 1-A to provide the Independent Auditor’s Report that was previously omitted, please have your auditor update their consent acknowledging the inclusion of their report in your amended Form 1-A.

 

Our Response:

The auditor consent is now current.
