Closing Date December 2008
Project Highlights
Submarket Lauderhill/Lauderdale
Description Distressed Acquisition/Apartment Renovation
Units 405
Investment Strategy
  • Structurally and financially distressed apartment community (determined to be unfit for occupancy by the local municipality).
    • Sustained significant damage during Hurricane Wilma.
    • Mismanaged by previous owners seeking to convert the Project.
    • Structural, legal, political and financial complexity.
  • Non-performing loan.
  • Alleged misappropriation of insurance proceeds on the part of the previous owners.
  • Blight on broader community since 2005.
  • Strong rental market fundamentals.
Current Status
  • 100% complete with renovation program (finished ahead of schedule and under budget).
  • Currently 90.12% leased and 87.9% occupied vs. pro-forma occupancy of 85.2% for October 2010.
A comprehensive due diligence program that spanned a 6-month period was conducted to identify and mitigate a significant portion of the deal risk associated with the Project
Deal Risk Sponsor Mitigation
Renovation Cost Overrun
  • Thorough asset level due diligence including a significant level of invasive/destructive testing and third-party forensic analysis.
  • Completed 90% of entitlement work prior to closing.
  • Highly detailed and broad based guaranteed maximum price contract executed with high quality, national general contractor.
Pro-Forma Operating Projections
  • Extensive local market knowledge (Priderock principals own and operate competitive properties in the immediate market).
  • Extensive use of third-party research (Property & Portfolio Research, REIS, Axiometrics, local and national brokers).
  • Detailed market survey (updated periodically during transaction execution).
Political
  • Completed 90% of permitting during the due diligence process (complicated and extensive approval process).
  • Required local municipality to execute written agreements regarding their official position on all major building statutes/actions prior to closing.
Title
  • Acquired lien free title to the property by helping the seller navigate the local foreclosure process (negotiated discount pricing based on the acquisition of a note, but acquired title).
  • Retained premier bankruptcy/foreclosure and land use counsel for South Florida to conduct an exhaustive review of the title and deal structure.
