What makes this fund different?
Acquisition Fees
The acquisition fee is the fee general partners (GP’s) charge to Limited Partners (LP’s) for successfully sourcing and acquiring a real estate property that fits into the LP’s investment criteria. In the Case of Arabella our acquisition fees range from 2% – 3% of the land purchase price. The is a one-time fee, paid at closing by the JV equity partner.
Development Fees
For development projects there is generally a development fee for the project, paid to the sponsor for managing the development process as a service to the LP investor. This is usually based on the total hard costs associated with the horizontal development of the project. In the case of Arabella, this fee is 5% of the land development budget paid in monthly installments over the land development period.
Construction Management Fees
Once a project begins vertical construction, the sponsor (Arabella) begins collecting Construction Management fees for managing the vertical construction of a project. This fee is typically charged on the vertical construction hard costs associated with a project ranging from 2.5% – 5%.
Promoted Interest
An advance given to the GP on the LP’s profit after the initial waterfall payments of the preferred return and capital investments are made. We are giving 100% of our promoted interest earned to our fund investors as Income.
Properties Contributed
Arabella is contributing a portfolio of 11 properties to the fund with a total capitalization of $451 million to the Arabella Real Estate Fund.
Reporting
What is the Net Asset Value?
The Net Asset Value of a fund is the assets of a fund less the liabilities of a fund. It represents the net value or net worth of the fund and/or the net value of the issued shares to investors.
How is the Net Asset Value calculated?
Net Asset Value is calculated by taking the total value of an asset, minus any outstanding debt and the cost of any fixed or planned capital expenses.
Why is the NAV Important?
The NAV calculation is important because asset values drive the current and future investor level returns. Arabella has decided to offer our current share prices at a discount compared to the true NAV and value of our portfolio. Since the initial launch of our fund, the value of our portfolio has increased substantially, primarily due to land appreciation, entitlements, and unlocking value through development.
What type of reporting will be provided to monitor my investment?
The Company will provide (i) Quarterly operating reports, (ii) Approved Annual Business Plan, including budget, (iii) annual financial statements, certified by a third-party independent accounting firm. (iv) Quarterly NAV calculation.
