Refinance scenario β EOY 2027 (updated)
Timeline change: Refinance target moved from July 2027 to end of year 2027. PDT move-in now expected October 2027. Stabilization window compressed β NOI must be demonstrated before refi appraisal.
| Scenario | $7M refi | $9M refi | $11M refi |
|---|---|---|---|
| New loan | $7,000,000 | $9,000,000 | $11,000,000 |
| Pay off existing | ($4,000,000) | ($4,000,000) | ($4,000,000) |
| Net cash available | $3,000,000 | $5,000,000 | $7,000,000 |
| Less Krinsky priority (~$875K) | ($875,000) | ($875,000) | ($875,000) |
| Available for distribution | $2,125,000 | $4,125,000 | $6,125,000 |
| HTC share (81.6% of SPV1) | ~$1,734,000 | ~$3,366,000 | ~$4,998,000 |
Krinsky $875K is first-priority distribution per SPV1 OA Section 5.2. Actual waterfall depends on Tranche 2 recovery first, then pro-rata by units. See SPV1 investor page.
Investment thesis
- Entry discount: $6M purchase vs $13.7M appraised = 56% discount
- Embedded infrastructure: $20M+ prior build-out for life sciences β prohibitively expensive to replicate
- Anchor tenant: PDT lease in place; move-in Oct 2027; TI construction underway
- Refinance upside: Target $9M refi EOY 2027 β ~$4.1M distributable after Krinsky priority
- QOZ benefit: Capital gains deferral + potential exclusion on appreciation if held 10+ years
Key risks: (1) Building is cash-flow negative until PDT occupancy. (2) Chris Marsh conflict β PDT Chairman + building operator. (3) QOZ 90% asset test + substantial improvement deadline. (4) If PDT relocates post-acquisition, building loses anchor tenant.

Open issues
| Priority | Issue | Action |
|---|---|---|
| HIGH | QOZ Form 8996 β may never have been filed for 808 SE Alder LLC | Pull entity tax returns. If unfiled, QOZ framing was aspirational only. |
| HIGH | PDT lease change-of-control terms unknown | Get lease from Peter Eckenberg or Chris Marsh. |
| MED | Chris Marsh conflict β PDT Chairman + 808 operator | Independent counsel before any PDT/building transaction. |
| MED | Vacancy risk if PDT acquired and relocates | Model downside scenario. Building + PDT investments move together. |
| MED | 30-month substantial improvement test | Verify timeline from initial QOZ investment date. Clock is running. |
