Investment Risk Disclosure

Last updated: February 20, 2026

IMPORTANT: All investments involve risk, including the potential total loss of your entire investment. You should not invest money you cannot afford to lose.

General Investment Risks

  • Loss of Principal: You may lose some or all of your invested capital.
  • Illiquidity: Real estate investments are generally illiquid. There is no public market for these securities, and you may not be able to sell your interest.
  • Long Hold Periods: Investments may require holding periods of 3-10+ years with no guarantee of return.
  • No Guaranteed Returns: Projected returns (IRR, equity multiples, cash-on-cash) are estimates only and are not guaranteed.
  • Past Performance: Past performance of any sponsor, deal, or asset class does not guarantee future results.

Real Estate-Specific Risks

  • Market Risk: Real estate values fluctuate based on economic conditions, interest rates, and local market dynamics.
  • Tenant Risk: Properties may experience vacancies, tenant defaults, or below-market rents.
  • Construction Risk: Development projects may face cost overruns, delays, or permitting issues.
  • Environmental Risk: Properties may have environmental liabilities including contamination, flood risk, or natural disasters.
  • Leverage Risk: Investments using debt financing amplify both gains and losses.
  • Interest Rate Risk: Rising interest rates can increase borrowing costs and reduce property values.
  • Concentration Risk: Investing in a single property or market concentrates your risk.

Syndication-Specific Risks

  • Sponsor Risk: The success of a syndication depends heavily on the sponsor/GP's competence and integrity.
  • Conflicts of Interest: Sponsors may have conflicts between their interests and those of investors.
  • Fee Structure: Management fees, acquisition fees, and promote structures reduce investor returns.
  • Limited Control: Limited partners have no control over property management, disposition timing, or capital calls.
  • Capital Calls: You may be required to contribute additional capital beyond your initial investment.
  • Dilution: Additional equity raises may dilute your ownership percentage.

Regulatory & Tax Risks

  • Securities Laws: These offerings are made under exemptions from SEC registration. Changes in securities law could affect your investment.
  • Tax Treatment: Tax benefits (depreciation, 1031 exchanges) are subject to change. Consult a qualified tax advisor.
  • SDIRA Compliance: Prohibited transactions within an SDIRA can result in disqualification and adverse tax consequences.
  • Zoning & Regulatory: Changes in zoning, building codes, or regulations can materially impact property value.

APEX Score Disclaimer

The APEX scoring system is a proprietary analytical tool that evaluates deals based on quantitative factors. APEX scores are not investment recommendations. A high APEX score does not guarantee a profitable investment. The scoring model has limitations and may not capture all relevant risk factors. Always conduct your own due diligence.
