Phased Develoment
Staggered construction across multiple buildings reduces subcontractor overlap, helping GCs secure permits faster. Property managers lease earlier by creating urgency and showcasing available units, enabling asset managers to reach 80–100% pre-leasing before GC exit. First units are delivered in 9 months, with others following every 1–2 months.

The Opportunity
Ankeny is a 10.77-acre development located just north of the Des Moines metropolitan area in the city of Ankeny. The project’s location near I-35 makes it a commuter-friendly choice, offering direct connectivity to Des Moines’ business districts and lifestyle amenities. The Ankeny multifamily project is a three-phase development targeting 184 units composed of studios, 1 bed-, 2 bed-, and 3 bed- floor plans.
Each Ankeny phase is expected to begin six months apart allowing for robust and programmatic allocation of capital. Each building in the project is planned for 14 units, except for three buildings which will have 10 units. The wellness design with no-frills reduces construction costs and the phased approach allows significant operating efficiencies pre- and post-construction.
By developing one phase at a time, we will be in a position to match leasing and development activity allowing for synergies and material cost savings. The Sponsorship group is successfully implementing this approach across nine developments in the Eastern South Dakota Region.

Clarity in Execution
Straightforward answers to the structural, financial, and strategic questions sophisticated investors ask before allocation.
What is the timeline?
Our standard structure is designed for a 5 to 7 year hold period, giving the investment time to fully execute the business plan and optimize for maximum appreciation. This longer-term approach allows us to focus on creating value through strategic improvements, operational performance, and market timing rather than rushing to exit too early. While timelines can vary depending on market conditions and the specific asset, our goal is to exit when we believe we can deliver the strongest possible outcome for investors.
Who Can Invest?
Who can invest depends on the specific offering and current securities regulations. Some opportunities are available only to accredited investors, while others may be open to a wider range of participants. We’ll always make eligibility requirements clear upfront so you can quickly understand whether an investment is a fit for you.
What Are The Tax Advantages?
Real estate investing can offer several potential tax advantages, including depreciation, deductible expenses, and the possibility of favorable long-term capital gains treatment when an asset is sold. In some cases, investors may also benefit from strategies like a 1031 exchange, which can allow capital gains taxes to be deferred by reinvesting proceeds into another qualifying property.
Can I Invest Using My IRA/401K?
Yes. Many investors choose to invest through a self-directed IRA, and certain 401(k) funds may also be eligible if they are rolled over into a qualifying self-directed retirement account. For investors who are new to investing with us, the minimum investment is $50,000, with additional investments accepted in $10,000 increments. Because retirement accounts have specific rules and requirements, we recommend speaking with your custodian or financial advisor before investing to confirm eligibility and account setup.
How Do I Invest?
Getting started is easy. Explore the investment opportunity, review the property details, strategy, risks, and projected returns, and choose the opportunity that fits your goals. When you’re ready, complete the investment documents and fund your investment. From there, our team manages the execution and keeps you informed with ongoing updates and any distributions along the way.
