Investment

Capital for Real Development.

1893 Development Group seeks to build long-term relationships with capital partners who understand the fundamentals of residential land development.

Project Capitalization

Residential land development is capital-intensive and sequential. Land must be acquired or controlled, entitlements pursued, engineering completed, and horizontal infrastructure constructed before finished lots can be delivered and revenue realized.

Depending on the individual opportunity, qualified projects may involve combinations of sponsor capital, private equity, institutional equity, development financing, land financing, and other project-level capital. The capital stack is structured around the specific development budget, schedule, and risk profile of each project.

Investment Philosophy

Disciplined Underwriting. Defined Execution.

Potential projects are evaluated on project-level underwriting across factors including:

  • Land basis
  • Market fundamentals
  • Housing demand
  • Builder activity
  • Entitlement risk
  • Infrastructure requirements
  • Development cost
  • Development schedule
  • Lot pricing
  • Absorption
  • Phasing
  • Capital requirements
  • Financing structure
  • Exit visibility
  • Downside scenarios
  • Risk-adjusted return potential

Phased Capital Deployment

Capital matched to the development schedule.

Large residential developments can often be developed in phases. Phasing may allow capital deployment to correspond more closely with infrastructure requirements, construction schedules, builder demand, and lot absorption.

Phasing is a planning and capital-management approach, not an assurance of outcome. Development activities involve risk, and no representation is made that capital will revolve on any schedule or that principal is protected or guaranteed.
