Overview



The Miami Cityfund

The Miami Cityfund will acquire and manage a portfolio of single-family residential real estate assets in Miami. Our acquisition strategy will focus on purchasing and investing in properties that we believe (1) offer compelling values with (2) the potential for significant appreciation.

What is a Cityfund?

A Cityfund is similar to an index fund in that it provides targeted exposure to a specific asset class in a city’s residential real estate market. Each Cityfund will hold investments in a portfolio of single-family residential properties in one city only.

Why did we create Cityfunds?

We designed the Cityfund based on the transformation we have seen in the equities market from actively managed mutual funds to index-based exchange traded funds (ETFs). Many ETFs enable investors to make very targeted investment decisions within a specific sector, geography, or risk profile.

We wanted to provide investors with this type of targeted exposure by creating a real estate investment product that provides targeted exposure to a specific city through a portfolio of residential real estate assets.

Miami


Miami is having a moment.  An increasing number of entrepreneurs and investors are relocating from traditional tech hubs to emerging startup ecosystems, and Miami is emerging as the benefactor. With its tropical climate, diverse population, and lack of state income tax, Miami is quickly becoming a tech hot spot.

Florida has seen one of the nation’s biggest upticks in the number of new residents, according to U.S. Census Bureau data. From July 2019 to July 2020, Florida gained an estimated 241,256 residents, second only to Texas. Miami is the second-largest city in Florida (after Jacksonville) and its population has increased by nearly 20% since 2010. Miami's population is currently the highest it has ever been. After Washington, D.C., Miami is the most populous metro region in the Southern U.S.

Source: World Population Review.

Economic Center

Home to one of the country’s most spectacular waterfront skylines, Miami is the central business and finance center in South Florida and serves as an important commercial and cultural nexus between the United States, Latin America, and the Caribbean. Miami has the largest concentration of international banks in the United States, with companies such as HSBC, Espirito Santo Bank, and Banco Santander, among others.

Entrepreneurial Hub

Urged by efforts from Miami Mayor Francis Suarez, technology companies, startups, entrepreneurs, and venture capitalists alike are making the move to Miami.

  • Marcelo Claure, CEO of SoftBank and long-time Miami advocate, announced a $100 million fund dedicated solely to startups based in Miami or those planning on moving there.
  • Spotify recently signed a lease in the Wynwood neighborhood of Miami.
  • PayPal co-founder and co-founder of venture capital firm Founders Fund, Peter Thiel, recently bought an $18 million mansion in Miami.
  • Google chief Eric Schmidt, Andreessen Horowitz general partner Chris Dixon, Craft Ventures' David Sacks, Founder's Fund partner Keith Rabois, Shutterstock founder Jon Oringer, media mogul Bryan Goldberg, and social media entrepreneur Steven Galanis who is head of Cameo are also following suit and relocating to Miami. 

The Fund's goal is to take advantage of this momentum and growth in the Miami residential market and to aggregate an attractive, diversified portfolio of single-family residential properties that we believe have the potential to significantly increase in value.

Strategy


Acquisition

Nada leverages its boots on the ground real estate team and market experience to source opportunistic property acquisitions. Acquisitions are targeted in single cities and their emerging fringe markets. Investment considerations include attributes such as high rental yield forecasts, attractive school districts, and light renovation costs. SFR properties are acquired a target gross yield of 8 - 12%.

Management

Tenant placement is handled by Nada’s real estate sales team. Property management services are handled by third-party service providers that are managed by Nada.


Acquisition

Nada’s Homeshares are investments into owner-occupied homes, whereby the Cityfund provides an upfront payment to a homeowner in exchange for a share of the home’s future appreciated value. Homeshare investments are made directly by Nada and sourced through their network of licensed real estate agents and direct-to-consumer marketing channels.

Nada has established consumer and property qualification standards; in addition, each Homeshare investment is placed at a risk-adjusted discount to market value—offsetting the risk of declines in home values and protecting the initial investment.

Management

Homeshare investments ensure the owner retains typical ownership rights and responsibilities. Each Homeshare investment is recorded on the title of each property and processed by Nada’s in-house Title and Escrow service.

Cityfund generates unrealized returns when the home appreciates in value. The Cityfund realizes cash returns when the homeowner takes certain actions, such as selling the entire home, refinancing their mortgage, or reaching the end of the agreed upon term.

Homeshares


Homeshares enables liquidity and diversification for homeowners by converting fractional interests of their home equity into cash at a discount to the home’s current market value.

For investors, Homeshares unlocks a new way to invest in high-growth markets, which have limited traditional inventory for sale.


(1) Note: Although our goal is to provide Homeowners the option to contribute their Homeshares in exchange for interest in a Cityfund, at this time, we have not determined when we can offer this option and cannot guarantee that we will offer this option.

Terms


Offering

We are currently offering accredited investors Interests in the Miami Cityfund through a Regulation D 506(c) offering. The minimum investment is $10,000.

Early Investor Incentive

For a limited time, investors will receive a 3-year credit towards asset management fees. This credit will be received upfront in the form of 4.5% additional Interests. For example, an investor who purchases 1,000 Interest will receive 1,045 Interests (4.5% bonus).

Management Fees

Cityfund Manager, LLC will receive the following fees for services related to the investment and management of the Fund's assets:

Asset Management Fee:  1.5% per annum of the aggregate capital contributions to the Cityfund.

Acquisition Fee: 1.0% of the gross purchase price of each single family property we acquire.

Leverage

We may employ modest leverage on our single-family acquisitions to enhance total returns to our investors through a combination of senior financing on our real estate acquisitions, secured facilities, and capital markets financing transactions. Our target portfolio-wide leverage after we have acquired an initial portfolio of diversified investments is between 30-50% of the greater of cost (before deducting depreciation or other non-cash reserves) or fair market value of our assets.

Liquidity Event

We intend to enable the trading of Miami Cityfund Interests in a secondary marketplace in order to provide investors with liquidity for their investments. Although our goal is to provide this liquidity option, at this time, we have not identified a secondary marketplace platform and such future liquidity can not be guaranteed.

Returns


Cityfunds are designed to provide returns that are related to the home-price appreciation of a specific market. While we are focused on sourcing acquisitions that have the potential for capital appreciation, the market will ultimately determine returns. We cannot assure you that we will attain this objective or that the value of our properties and your investment will not decrease.

Market Data

Based on recent historical and assumed continuing home-price appreciation, we expect both our single-family rental acquisitions as well as our Homeshare investments to generate annual internal rates of return ("IRR") of between 12% and 15% over a 7-year period. These estimated returns may not be met. 

We have provided examples below for hypothetical investments in a single-family rental property and a Homeshare property investment to exhibit how these returns would be generated based on our underlying assumptions.

The hypothetical return assumptions we make below include the income we receive from renting these properties as well as home price appreciation.

The hypothetical return assumptions we make below include home price appreciation as well as the discount to market value that we make our investment ("risk-adjusted value").
