In Q4 of 2017 KSM invested with a quality local developer alongside high-net-worth investors in acquiring an unzoned land in order to develop 500,000 sf of high-rise condo project in downtown Toronto, we've acquired the site substantially below market and expecting to make over 3X multiple on our capital.
In Q2 of 2018 KSM invested with a top-tier Canadain operator alongside family-offices in acquiring a class A apartment building with 420+ units across 330,000 sf in downtown Cleveland, we've acquired the property for $100,000 less than comps on per door basis due to rent lower in 50% and occupancy lower in 15% than market, we're expecting to make over 2.5X multiple on our capital.
KSM & Associates assisted a publicly-traded US developer and owner in raising $100 Million of corporate bonds on their $800 Millon portfolio of multi-family, offices and ground-up residential development in the TASE. The bonds are not secured directly by the assets and enabling the developer to invest the proceeds in refinancing expensive mezzanine loans, buy partners out and invest in new acquisitions/developments. In many cases, this vehicle provides significantly lower cost of capital compare to the North American capital markets solutions and assist the developers in increasing their portfolio size substantially.
KSM consulted for a US developer in raising $25 Million equity to their $95 Million ground up multi-family project in Chicago. We were able to facilitate a strong relationship between the developer to a $60 Billion institutional investor that has a substantial amount of capital dedicated to ground-up developments across North America and has the ability to invest alongside the developer in many more deals going forward.
