The collateral for this loan is a 4.6 net acre site in Goodyear, AZ. The project will consist of 47 attached residential townhome units. All units will have three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms ranging from 1,690-1,801 square feet. The modern looking townhomes will be constructed as a for sale community instead of the “build-to-rent” model that is prevalent in Arizona. The wet and dry utilities are almost complete for the entire site. Goodyear was founded by the tire and rubber company to grow the cotton used for their tires. The company shifted their focus from cotton to real estate and land development in the 1960s. Metro Phoenix is home to about 5 million people where net migration continues to fuel its growth. Over the past two decades, Phoenix has grown by nearly 100,000 people every year. Phoenix’s relatively young population with the age cohort 25-34 containing the largest percentage of residents (about 15%) are ideal purchasers/renters for the entry level townhomes. Although it is not the intent to hold the property as a built to rent community, the buyer has been approached by multiple equity firms to purchase the finished product when each of the buildings are completed, for this purpose.
