Class Notes Flashcards
Three Core Components of Pre-Development
o Financial Analysis (Pro Forma); create, explain, verify, interpret o Entitlements (land use, zoning) o Due Diligence (the details of finding out)
Four basic investment categories
o Core-lowest risk: fully stabilized with credit quality tenants on long term leases. Well located and in very good condition.
o Core-plus moderate risk: same as above with some opportunity to increase the cash flow. Perhaps short-term lease roll over.
o Value- Add Medium to high risk: looking for that opportunity to add value and will accept some risk to do that. Property has high vacancy rate, physical obsolescence, etc. Lower quality tenants.
o Opportunistic- highest risk: entrepreneurial risk to achieve above average returns. Part of the property that may be empty, perhaps a use change is required.
Eight Stages of Real Estate Development
- Idea Inception
- Refinement
- Feasibility
- Contract Negotiations
- Formal Commitments
- Construction
- Completion
- Management
General Partnership
Refers to a relationship in which all partners contribute to the day-to-day management of the business. Each partner will have the authority to make business decisions and even legally bind the company in contracts.
Unlimited Liability
Preferred Return
First claim on profits until a target return has been achieved.
Limited Partnership
A relationship where the limited partner may not be involved in the day-to-day management of the business. This partner may have just contributed funds to the business, and often the funds that they contribute are the extent of their liability. Limited partnerships will still have at least one general partner to man the day-to-day operations of the business.
The Catch Up Provision
The catch up provision provides that the investor gets 100% of all profit distributions until a pre-determined rate of return has been achieved. Then, after the investor achieves the required return, 100% of profits will go to the sponsor until the sponsor is “caught up.”
pari passu structure
Pari-passu (sometimes you’ll see it hyphenated) is a Latin term used to describe funding and/or the return of capital pro-rata to investment proportions, simultaneously. Note the two dynamics at play here: 1) dollar amount, and 2) timing.
