The partnership with ICG offers REALIANCE relations the opportunity to participate in a proposition, which a defensive risk profile with an immediately distributable cash flow. The current occupancy rate of 95% offers a solid basis for an annual distribution of 9% from the start and also to build up a cash reserve. Although the strategy is to sell the complex after approximately five years, a 10-year fixed-rate loan offers the opportunity to choose a good sales moment in the cycle. Assuming a conservative cap rate of 7% on sale, a projected return of 90.3% is expected over a five-year term.
The placement of the required equity amounts US$ 3.5 million for direct participation in an American Limited Partnership. The participation size is US$ 25,000 with a minimum purchase of five participations. ICG and REALIANCE will jointly contribute US$ 559,500 (13.8%) of equity.
