Croatan Access Fund LLC

Croatan Access Fund LLC (the “Access Fund”) is raising capital to invest in Croatan Multifamily All-Weather Fund II LP (the “Fund”, "Croatan", the "Croatan Fund" or "All-Weather Fund II") which is described below. The Access Fund is raising capital through a “feeder fund” structure called an access fund by aggregating up to 100 investors at a minimum investment of $25,000 each and will invest the capital into Croatan Fund. Since the Access Fund will aggregate several million dollars, the Access Fund has been able to negotiate to receive a 12% preferred return and then 80% of profits thereafter, as agreed in a side letter agreement between the Access Fund and Croatan Fund. In comparison, direct investors into Croatan Fund who invest a minimum of $100,000 will only receive a 6% preferred return.

In addition, the Access Fund has negotiated to receive 80% of profits after the 12% preferred return has been achieved.
  • Proven Track Record – Croatan’s investment manager has achieved a 32.7% net IRR and a 2.8x Equity Multiple on realized multifamily investments.

Why Invest Through a Fund

  • INSTITUTIONAL OVERSIGHT

    As an institutional investment manager, Croatan will review every aspect and decision related to the acquisition, finance and ongoing operations of the properties.

  • PRUDENT DIVERSIFICATION

    At completion, Croatan will own multiple investments in Multi-Family properties.

  • PROVEN TRACK RECORD

    CityVest searches for institutional investment managers who have a strong historical track record with IRR returns well over 20%.

Why Real Estate?

  • Diversification

    Real estate investments are considered a non-correlated alternative asset class.

  • Cash Flow & Appreciation

    Stabilized real estate generally benefits from regular and predictable cash flow.

  • Low Interest Rate

    Historically low interest rates may allow real estate to generate higher cash flows.

  • Income Tax Treatment

    Ordinary income can be minimized through the use of an accelerated depreciation strategy that may generate passive losses.

  • Hedge Against Inflation

    Rents, land values and replacement costs typically move upward with inflation.

  • Multiple Exit Strategies

    Real estate assets can be disposed of through individual or portfolio liquidations, asset refinancing, mergers, or a “roll up” through a portfolio capitalization.

CROATAN OVERVIEW & STRATEGY

The investment objective of Croatan is to consistently generate attractive risk-adjusted returns across all market cycles through (i) the development and acquisition of multifamily commercial real estate, (ii) investments in structured financial products for multifamily commercial real estate such as preferred equity and mezzanine debt, among other instruments described below, and (iii) the acquisition and securitization of multifamily real estate for syndication to retail investors through various channels. Investments shall also include financial instruments that reference or represent interests in real estate operating companies and multifamily commercial real estate, including underlying investment vehicles, public equity (including, without limitation, shares of REITs), first-lien mortgage debt, distressed real estate assets or derivatives referencing multifamily commercial real estate or interests therein.

CROATAN DELIVERS A VARIETY OF CAPABILITIES AND PRODUCT OFFERINGS ACROSS THEIR PLATFORM

Croatan Three-Pillar Investment Thesis

Opportunistic in Nature, Agnostic in Approach, Nimble in Execution. We take great pride in our track record and the trust we have built with our investors as thoughtful stewards of their capital. This success is driven by the three pillars of our investment strategy:



  • Laser-focus on the multifamily asset class

    • Multifamily rental housing enjoys a long-term macroeconomic tailwind as we foresee a multi-decade shortage of affordable housing stock, shifting preferences away from homeownership toward the rental model, and the recession-resilient nature of the asset class.


  • Invest where people want to work and live

    • We target high job and population growth markets with positive long-term housing demand drivers.


  • Seek inefficiencies across the market cycle

    • With an opportunistic mindset, agnostic approach to investment structure, and nimble execution, we are able to quickly pivot and execute on investment strategies to produce the most attractive risk-adjusted returns for our investors.

Pillar 1: Specialize in Rental Housing

  • Historically Recession-Resilient with Stable, Long-Term Returns

    • Rental housing provides a fundamental, non-discretionary need: shelter.
    • It has delivered superior risk-adjusted returns relative to other asset classes over the past 30 years with low correlation.1
  • Tailwinds from Extended Housing Supply Constraints

    • 4.3 million apartment units are needed nationally by 2035, over 330 thousand annually, to compensate for demand and the shortfall in construction.2
  • Homebuying Has Become Less Attainable which Should Drive Demand for Rental Housing

    • Due to rising interest rates and prices, the cost to own and maintain a home has grown higher than renting and sits higher than the prior peak of the mid 2000s housing market boom.3

Important Disclosure Statement for Croatan:

An investment in the Access Fund, and the Access Fund’s investment in the Fund, is speculative and risky. No assurance can be given that investors will realize their investment objectives or will realize a substantial return (if any) on their investment. Investors should be able to bear the complete loss of their investment in the Access Fund. For this reason, each prospective subscriber should carefully read the Access Fund’s investment documents (“Memorandum”), including the Operating Agreement, Subscription Agreement, Investor Questionnaire and Risk Factors, as well as all of the Fund’s investment documents. Each prospective subscriber should consult with his attorneys, accountants, and business advisors prior to making an investment in the Access Fund. Only qualified, eligible investors who are accredited investors may invest in the Access Fund.

The Access Fund will invest in the Fund which will invest in real estate properties and assets. As such, investment in the Access Fund does not constitute a diversified investment. Because this is a blind pool offering, investors will not have the opportunity to evaluate investments in the Access Fund or the Fund before the Fund makes them, which makes an investment in the Fund more speculative. The investors must rely on the management of Fund and to make all investment decisions. There can be no assurances or guarantees that the Access Fund’s or the Fund’s investment objectives will be realized or that the Access Fund’s or the Fund’s investment strategy will prove successful.

An investment in the Access Fund’s or the Fund’s may be affected by a number of factors beyond the control of their management that will affect the value of the investments. These include risks typically associated with investments in real estate related to, but not limited to, vacancy rates, renting risk, or decreased rental rates, adverse changes in general economic conditions or local conditions that may reduce the demand for real estate, changes in the demand for or supply of competing properties in an area, unanticipated holding costs, the availability and cost of necessary utilities and services, changes in real estate tax rates and other operating expenses, changes in governmental rules and fiscal policies, changes in zoning and other land use regulations, environmental risks such as mold contamination or environmental claims that could be made, and natural disasters, most of which are not covered by insurance.

The Fund will operate in a highly competitive market for investment opportunities. Croatan's profitability depends, in large part, on the ability to acquire profitable investments. In doing so, the Fund will compete with numerous other entities and individuals engaged in real estate investment activities, many of which have greater financial, technical, marketing, and other resources than the Fund. Poor performance of the investment management in selecting investments for the Fund, or poor performance of any investment, could adversely affect the profitability of the Fund and the overall return to the investors.

The Fund may make investments through a joint venture or co-investment arrangement. Such arrangements may be on terms that limit the Fund’s ability to control the investments and to receive returns on those investments.

Adverse economic conditions may adversely affect the ability of the Fund to obtain financing. Unfavorable financing terms or the inability to obtain financing would adversely affect the operating results of the Fund. The high level of leverage on the properties increases the debt service risks and the likelihood of foreclosure. the Fund's borrowing of capital increases the risks of adverse effects on the Fund’s financial condition.

The manager of the Access Fund and the Fund have a limited operating history and track record upon which prospective investors may base an evaluation of its likely performance. Prospective investors should not rely on the past success of the Access Fund’s or Fund’s investment manager or their affiliates. The success of the Access Fund or Fund is significantly dependent upon the expertise of certain investment or support personnel and any future unavailability of their services could have an adverse impact on the investment performance. The management of the Access Fund or Fund and a majority of their investors may agree to amend the investment agreements, which could be adverse to some investors. It is impossible to predict accurately the results from an investment in the Access Fund or Fund because of general risks associated with the complete reliance on the management of each and its affiliates to identify and negotiate the investments to be made.

The proposed method of operation of Access Fund and the Fund creates certain inherent conflicts of interest among the Access Fund, the Fund, their managers and their affiliates. The liability of the investment manager is limited. The Access Fund and the Fund and its affiliates may compete with other investments and may provide services to other assets. The Access Fund and the Fund may make direct investments in affiliates. The investment manager of the Access Fund and the Fund may have conflicting fiduciary obligations with respect to the allocation of investment opportunities. The investment manager and its affiliates of the Access Fund and the Fund will receive compensation and reimbursements. Certain compensation to the Access Fund’s and the Fund’s investment manager and its affiliates has not been established by arms-length agreement. The Access Fund and the Fund investment manager's officers and agents will engage in other management activities. In addition, a single legal counsel will represent the Access Fund on the one hand and the Fund on the other hand.

The investment manager may have conflicting fiduciary obligations when making investments through a joint venture or co-investment with an affiliate of the Fund’s investment manager. These transactions may not be the result of arms-length negotiations and may involve conflicts between the Access Fund’s and the Fund’s interests or their affiliates. The investment manager will use reasonable efforts to ensure that the terms and conditions of such transactions will be no more favorable to the affiliate than could be obtained by arms-length negotiations with an independent third party.

An investment in the Access Fund and the Fund is illiquid. No public or other market will develop for the investment. These securities are subject to restrictions on transferability and resale and may not be transferred or resold except as permitted under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and the applicable State securities laws, pursuant to registration or exemption therefrom. Prospective investors should be aware that they will be required to bear the financial risks of any investment in these securities for an indefinite period of time.

An investment in the Access Fund is are offered without registration under any securities laws due to a reliance on an available exemption. Although the Access Fund’s offering documents are not reviewed or approved by federal or state regulators, the Access Fund must comply with a variety of legal and compliance requirements. Failure to comply with the requirements for a private offering exemption would adversely affect the Access Fund. Maintenance of an Investment Company Act exemption may impose limits on the Access Fund’s operations, and if the Access Fund becomes subject to the Act, the Access Fund would likely be unable to continue its business.

To the extent Access Fund’s and the Fund’s cash flow permits, the investment manager intends to make distributions to investors. Prospective investors should be aware that the sole source of cash from which the Access Fund and the Fund will make cash distributions will be from revenues received from investments made by the Fund. No assurance can be made that the Fund will receive sufficient return on its investments to enable it to make any distributions to the investors.
