Nest Opportunity Fund® September 2021 Update

Nest is a conservative option in the QOF space, focusing on cap gains over the long term. While our structure is institutionalized, we have a “family owned” feel. We aim to hit singles and doubles, not home runs or strikeouts.

Snapshot: Fund Overview & Status

• Small multifamily/single-family rehabs: 45 properties with 15 complete, 84 units with 21 complete
• 23% appreciation for appraised single-families
• 10% annual IRR projected (without OZ tax benefits)

Property Rehabilitation: Our Rehab Teams Continue to Execute

Lexington operations are putting final touches on 3 more single-family houses this month, with another 3-4 expected in September. We’re in an unusually tight rental market, we believe due to normal seasonality, longer-term pent-up demand and, perhaps, some sort of tailwind from folks not moving during COVID. We’ve tried to take advantage of this by focusing resources on completing projects so they can hit the market during this period of strength by focusing on “close to competition” projects. We divert resources away from “earlier stage” projects, therefore there will be a lull in the fall when we won’t be reporting projects being completed.

Columbus operations have pivoted toward earlier stage projects after completing 7 of the 8 units at Columbian. We will not have new properties coming online for the next few months.

Leasing

Rent growth/lease ups continue to be extremely strong.

Financing

No financings finalized this month. Initial financing term sheet and appraisals on four single-families has been completed. Last year, investors received significant depreciation losses, about $11,500 per $100,000 they invested. For our Series A Investors, there is a good chance that write-off is quite a bit higher this year. New investors in Series B will not receive depreciation tax losses in 2021, but we expect it to mirror our Series A starting tax year 2022.

Purchasing

Our Series B subsidiaries closed on the second purchase of a duplex in the Franklinton neighborhood of Columbus.
