Diversification

First Trust Deed collateralized by just over 18 acres of land in North Las Vegas, NV. Although the property is currently a level piece of dirt, it had a vibrant past. The property was home to apartments beginning in the early 1960’s and transitioned into low-income housing in the 80’s. As time went on, the property became very rundown, and riddled with crime. After the Department of Housing and Urban Development foreclosed on the previous owner during the financial crisis of 2008, the borrower began working with HUD and the city of North Las Vegas to plan what will eventually become a key piece to the city. The borrower formally acquired the property in October of 2020 for over $3,000,000 and will formally obtain city approval for an eight-building medical complex in late 2022. The borrower will then construct and sell each of the buildings once completed which is anticipated to begin in about a year. Loan Amount: $6,000,000 Yield: 10% interest is paid monthly in arrears with payments due on the 1st of each month with a 10- day grace period. Term: Nine months with an optional nine-month extension at maturity. Final maturity date is 5/1/24.
