"Now let me finalize the write-up.
Haddonstone is a 98-unit, to-be-completed Build-to-Rent townhome community in Raleigh , and the $30MM ask is where the framing has to start: it's $2.5MM (9.0%) above the sponsor's own modeled total project cost of $27.5MM ($280,772/unit) , and their own underwriting shows a 6.25% going-in cap and a 9.4% unlevered IRR at that cost basis — nowhere near what you'd need $30MM to justify on their numbers alone. But priced against the Year-1 pro forma NOI of $1.75MM , $30MM is a 5.85% going-in cap — cheaper than today's Raleigh institutional SFR cap rate of 5.30% . You're not overpaying versus the market; you're paying the sponsor a premium to take construction and lease-up risk off their books before a single unit delivers.
I couldn't run this through your Menlo Creek workbook as literally requested — that file is wired cell-by-cell to Menlo Creek's own historical rent roll, T12, and renovation/mechanical-replacement schedule, none of which exist for a from-the-ground BTR forward-takedown, so repointing it would silently produce numbers that look precise but aren't. Instead I ran the same underwriting logic (6-cell going-in cap through to leveraged IRR and equity multiple) through RealAI's own pro forma engine, populated with Haddonstone's actual OM/sponsor data — that workbook is attached below.
At $30MM, 65% LTV / 6.21% agency debt : levered IRR 19.3%, equity multiple 4.56x over a 10-year hold, going-in DSCR 1.65x . Even stripped down to a flat, much more conservative 3.5% rent growth assumption (vs. the decaying 6.6%→3.3% path the forecast engine's base case returned), levered IRR still holds at 17.3% — the deal doesn't live or die on the aggressive near-term rent number.
| Metric | Sponsor Basis ($27.5MM cost) | This Underwriting ($30MM ask) |
|---|---|---|
| Price/Unit | $280,772 | $306,122 |
| Year-1 NOI | $1,753,8301 | $1,753,8301 |
| Going-In Cap Rate | 6.25% | 5.85% |
| Unlevered IRR | 9.4% (10-yr hold)2 | 12.6%3 |
| Levered IRR | n/a | 19.3%4 |
| Equity Multiple | 2.06x (unlevered)2 | 4.56x (levered)3 |
What the comps say. Five BTR/SFR townhome comps within 3–22 miles average $2,294/unit effective rent against Haddonstone's $2,140 pro forma mark — Haddonstone is priced conservatively into a comp set still leasing up (comp occupancy ranges 73%–99%, averaging 84%) , which is the honest state of a submarket where BTR is still early-cycle, not a red flag on the subject specifically.
| Property | Distance | Units | Year Built | Occupancy | Effective Rent | Rent PSF |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Haddonstone Townhomes (Subject) | — | 98 | 2026 | 0% | $2,140 | $1.27 |
| Hudson at Georgias Landing | 3.5 mi | 138 | 2024 | 81.2%1 | $2,6631 | $1.42 |
| Stephens Farm | 13 mi | 292 | 2023 | 86.0% | $2,188 | $1.09 |
| Ashford Townes | 13 mi | 74 | 2022 | 99.0% | $2,056 | $1.21 |
| Marin Woods Townhomes | 22 mi | 30 | 2025 | 73.3% | $1,720 | $1.22 |
| Page Oaks | 15 mi | 188 | 2024 | 78.7% | $2,372 | $1.42 |
How it's operating. The OM's Year-1 pro forma (used here as the baseline since the asset has no operating history yet) runs a 27.2% opex ratio — low for garden multifamily but structurally normal for single-family-style BTR townhomes with no elevators, limited common area, and resident-paid utilities. Management fee (3%), $250/unit reserves, and a 5% vacancy assumption all track standard institutional BTR underwriting, not aggressive assumptions.
Market context. Raleigh SFR institutional cap rates sit at 5.30% today, mid-band against a 21-year structural range of 4.30%–6.91% (structural mean 5.93%, trailing-10-year mean 5.36%) — no directional headwind from cap-rate drift baked into the exit assumption of 5.50%, which also matches the sponsor's own exit cap independently. Raleigh is a top-tier Sun Belt growth market (job growth, RTP anchor tenants, in-migration) with genuine demand for BTR product, but the East Raleigh BTR pipeline is active and the comp set's 84% average occupancy is the tell that lease-up risk is real, not hypothetical, for anything delivering into this submarket over the next 12–18 months.
The one number to watch. The rent-growth path driving the base case (6.6% Year 1, decaying to 3.3% by Year 10) came back from the forecasting engine flagged low confidence with a boom-extrapolation warning — Raleigh's SFR asking rent has only 25 months of post-2020-regime history to draw on, and recent growth is running well above what the engine considers a sustainable structural rate . That's the assumption most likely to be wrong if this goes sideways. The good news: the sensitivity grid shows the deal still clears comfortably (14–17% levered IRR) even collapsed to a flat, much tamer rent-growth assumption — so the "boom" flag matters for how much upside you should expect, not for whether the deal works.
Bottom line. This is a Go at $30MM. The premium to the sponsor's own cost basis is real and should be a negotiating point — there's room to push back toward $28–29MM before the deal's economics change materially — but the going-in cap still beats today's market SFR cap, leverage is comfortable at 1.65x DSCR, and returns hold up under a materially more conservative rent-growth case. The open question worth digging into next is the actual construction/delivery schedule and how much of the "forward takedown" structure exposes you to completion timing risk before that first tranche of rent shows up.
Endnotes registered. The full underwriting workbook is attached above for you to flex the assumptions directly — the price, financing terms, and growth path are all live input cells.
