Alta Real Estate targets [12]%+ unlevered, annual cash-on-cash returns with [3]% annual increases. Our model includes additional potential upside from i) mortgaging portfolio assets and using the proceeds to pay dividends to our investors, and ii) selling portfolio assets back to the tenant or to a third party at a premium. Our base case financial model generates an IRR of +[20]%.

No, all transactions are structured with strong downside protection and are backed by real estate, resulting in a low risk profile. The expected returns reflect current market conditions. The cannabis industry is growing at a double-digit CAGR with sales, public support and use rates at an all-time high. However, cannabis is not yet federally legal and therefore lacks access to traditional financing. Even companies with the strongest financials and operating histories are excluded from bank loans, mortgages and institutional capital. Lack of capital combined with the industry’s unprecedented secular growth supports Alta’s financing terms and its subsequent outsized returns.

Since 2017.

The GP's contribution currently equals +[13]% of the fund's total capital. The GP has an obligation to contribute at least [3]% of all investor capital commitments into the fund.

For portfolio properties, Alta's tenants are licensed companies that operate in full compliance with state laws, and precedence shows that landlords are not subject to increased risk if they are not interest holders in the cannabis license. For the credit facilities, the borrower is the real estate owner, not the actual operating company, and therefore Alta never lends money directly to a licensed cannabis entity. Our investments are considered ancillary and are not plant touching, allowing us to avoid the legal scrutiny faced by cannabis operators. In the event that an Alta tenant or borrower engages in illegal activity and has their assets seized, such seizure consists only of the tenant’s or borrower’s net equity; the Alta fund(s) would still have due process in which any recorded liens must be paid in full as well as all collateral executed in the lender’s benefit. We always recommend consulting legal counsel prior to investing to understand all potential risks.

No. All payments are made to Alta via wire transfers or certified checks.

Upon federal legalization, we do expect cap rates to compress to market rates; however, legalization would also provide the opportunity to mortgage our portfolio assets, which would transform our unlevered returns into levered returns. We could use the mortgage proceeds to pay dividends to investors or stretch our equity by investing in new properties and credit facilities.

The minimum investment amount is US $250,000.

Alta Real Estate investors pay an annual management fee of [1.6]% which is split into: 0.8% fixed management fee over committed capital, and 0.8% management fee over invested capital After the investors receive a [20]% preferred pre-tax return (including repayment of all management fees), there is a carried interest waterfall structure which is split between the LP and GP depending on the total investment yield.

The GP has [2] years from the close of each capital commitment to deploy all of the equity raised from investors in that round.

The fund operates on a capital-call basis, so investors don't send committments until the GP is ready to close on a transaction. This means investors start generating returns immediately once an acquisition or a loan is closed and payments begin.

Investors receive distributions from each transaction on a semi-annual basis, paid every April and every October.

Not at this time but we are open to such possibility in the future.

The General Partner makes all investment decisions. The investment thesis is written in the Limited Partnership agreement and its Supplement as well as the Subscription Agreement, which all investors agree to upon confirmation of their capital commitments.

Alta Real Estate has closed [11] transactions, having invested over $[23,000,000] total. Due to our extreme discipline and rigorous diligence process, we will only pursue the best investment opportunities with the most creditworthy operators.

No, Alta evaluates transactions in all states where cannabis has been legalized for medical or adult use. Our primary target markets include cities with friendly regulators, high commercial property values and states where the cannabis economy is burgeoning, which provides additional confidence in the strength of our borrowers’ and tenants’ businesses.

Alta has an exclusive first look right and advertisement agreement with CannaMLS, a platform for selling cannabis real estate that receives over [50] new listings per week. In addition to the relationship with CannaMLS, Alta has also developed a robust network of experienced brokers that consistently refer opportunities for our consideration.

We use recent, local, non-cannabis sale comps in addition to third-party appraisals for property valuations. All of our assets must be well-priced and avoid green zone premiums to ensure adequate downside protection for investors.

A green zone is the area within a municipal boundary that has been designated to allow for commercial cannabis businesses to operate. Green zones tend to be limited in size and the properties within those zones are often subject to additional zoning restrictions, like a minimum distance “buffer” from a school or park, making the best properties within a green zone more valuable to cannabis operators. Alta avoids paying a green zone premium by evaluating the value of the property as if it were not inside a cannabis green zone. If the fund needs to sell or lease the property to a non-cannabis operator in the future, there would be no significant value loss on the asset.

Typically, between 1 and 6 months.

Since the fund targets downstream assets (mainly retail and industrial), the properties can be leveraged and then sold or leased to non-cannabis companies, if ever necessary. The redevelopment value of a "last mile" portfolio like ours is especially secure with the recent uptick in e-commerce sales as a result of the COVID pandemic. Alta looks at the true value of the commercial real estate, removing any cannabis premium or “green-zone” premium.

States that include disclosure requirements for individuals and entities that have interests in a licensed cannabis company will often differentiate between having a direct equity interest, which would make them an owner in the cannabis company, and having some other financial interest in the company, classifying them as a “financial interest holder” instead. Financial interest holders include individuals or companies that make loans to cannabis entities or who take a percentage of profits or revenue from the cannabis entity. Landlords that charge a predetermined, fair market value lease rate to cannabis tenants are exempt from being classified as a financial interest holder, so Alta Real Estate and its investors’ identities do not need to be disclosed.

Our legal team has structured the funds to ensure that the fund does not participate in plant touching enterprises. Alta Real Estate will acquire real estate assets and lease them to licensed cannabis operators, but will have no ownership interest or control in the plant touching business. As always, we recommend you seek counsel regarding all legal and tax concerns prior to investing.
