I want to run an acquisition screening on Preserve at Ridgeville using the attached offering memorandum, comparing the broker's stated rents and financials against class-A comps in the surrounding submarket and accepting broker assumptions only where directly corroborated by comp data. My renovation/positioning stance is stabilized acquisition, no value-add program, and I want sensitivity testing on rent growth and supply-shock scenarios plus a goal-seek on offering price at 65% LTV and current market financing terms to solve for a 12% IRR. Flag any OM line items — NOI, expense ratios, rent assumptions, or renovation costs — that appear out of line with comp-supported data, and produce a Go/No-Go/Conditional recommendation with the supporting pro forma.

CONDITIONAL — Preserve at Ridgeville, 240 units in Ridgeville, SC, needs to trade around $49.73M ($207,194/unit) — roughly 4.3% below the $216,443/unit average of four recent Class-A garden trades in the same submarket — to clear a 12% levered IRR at 65% LTV and current Freddie Mac 10-year pricing . At that basis the deal is comfortably financeable (1.54x DSCR, 8.5% debt yield) , but the discount to comps exists for a reason the OM's comp table never mentions: this is a USDA 538 income-restricted asset with a deed restriction running through 2061, benchmarked against five unrestricted, market-rate Class-A comps .
The thesis — new (2023), well-located, priced below replacement cost, with genuine mark-to-market room versus its own AMI ceiling — is real. But three OM inputs run hotter than the data supports: rent growth (4.25% vs. a data-supported 2%), occupancy (94% snapshot vs. 89.6% trailing and falling) , and Year-1 real estate taxes, which the OM's own pro forma shows stepping up ~23% on point-of-sale reassessment — a jump this template's flat escalator won't capture . Go firm at or below $49.7M with underwriting reset to the comp-supported numbers below; don't go at the OM's own assumptions.
| Property | Distance (mi) | Units | Year Built | In-Place Rent/Unit | Occupancy | Rent Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Preserve at Ridgeville (subject) | 0.0 | 240 | 2023 | $1,5591 | 89.6% | Affordable/AMI-restricted |
| The Palms at Edgewater | 8.9 | 288 | 2023 | $1,581 | 94.8% | Market |
| The Isley at Windsor Hill | 14.6 | 332 | 2022 | $1,647 | 96.4% | Market |
| Hawthorne at Summerville | 11.1 | 168 | 2024 | $1,648 | 95.8% | Market |
| Azure Carnes Crossroads | 8.4 | 295 | 2021 | $1,674 | 98.0% | Market |
| Comp average (unrestricted) | — | — | — | $1,6381 | 96.2% | — |
The OM's own five comps — Palms at Edgewater, Overlook at Cane Bay, Isley at Windsor Hill, Hawthorne at Summerville, Azure Carnes Crossroads — are all conventional, unrestricted, 2020–2024-vintage Class-A garden product within 15 miles . Independently pulling four of them from the datamart confirms the OM's rent figures are directionally right: subject in-place rent of $1,559/unit sits 4.8% below the comp average of $1,638/unit . But none of these comps carry the household restriction subject does — every one is flagged rent_type: MARKET with no restriction, against subject's AFFORDABLE / INCOME_RESTRICTED classification . The OM's own debt page discloses the mechanism — total rent capped at 30% of 115% AMI, a restriction that survives even if the USDA loan is repaid, running to 2061 — but the "mark-to-market opportunity" and comp-set framing never reconcile the two .
Sale comps tell the same story on price. Four Class-A garden trades within the same submarket over the last 26 months — Palms ($203,125/unit, Sep-25), Overlook ($228,333/unit, Dec-25), Isley ($196,687/unit, Jun-24), Azure Carnes Crossroads ($237,627/unit, Jun-26) — average $216,443/unit . The 65% LTV / 12% IRR breakeven price of $207,194/unit is a 4.3% discount to that basis, which is the right direction given the rent ceiling, but not a large one — there's limited room to overpay without an unrestricted-comp basis that doesn't apply here.
| Property | Sale Date | Distance (mi) | Units | Year Built | Sale Price | $/Unit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| The Palms at Edgewater1 | Sep 2025 | 8.9 | 288 | 2023 | $58,500,000 | $203,125 |
| The Overlook at Cane Bay1 | Dec 2025 | 5.8 | 300 | 2020 | $68,500,000 | $228,333 |

| Comp average (unadjusted) | — | — | — | — | — | $216,443 |
| Preserve at Ridgeville — 12% IRR breakeven price | — | — | 240 | 2023 | $49,726,563 | $207,194 |
Ridgeville sits inside a genuinely strong demand corridor — Volvo's $1.3B plant, Redwood Materials' $3.5B battery campus, and Google's $9B data center expansion are all within an 8-minute drive, and the OM's claim of zero competing Class-A supply within 6 miles is a real structural advantage . Charleston MSA multifamily cap rates for Class A assets run roughly 4.75–5.20% and have been compressing ; the underwritten entry at $49.73M implies a T12 cap rate of 5.55% — about 35–55 bps above that band, i.e. priced favorably relative to unrestricted Class-A . Submarket-wide, Summerville's multifamily pipeline is thinning fast (2026/2027 deliveries down 35%/50% YoY), supporting the supply-shielded thesis for the broader corridor even if it doesn't resolve the AMI ceiling specific to this asset .
| Line | Stabilized |
|---|---|
| Effective gross income | $4,769,197 |
| Operating expenses | $2,009,675 |
| NOI (T12) | $2,759,522 |
| Going-in cap rate | 5.55% |
| Levered IRR (5-yr hold) | 12.04% |
| Equity multiple | 1.69x |
| Going-in DSCR | 1.54x |
| Debt yield | 8.5% |
Footnote: GPR and vacancy are datamart T12 actuals; taxes are the T12 assessed amount; all other expense lines and other income are sourced from the broker's Year-1 pro forma — no independent T12 detail exists for insurance, utilities, R&M, payroll, G&A, marketing, or other income, so those lines carry broker-only confidence.
Two things to flag before trusting this table at face value. First, real estate taxes are understated for Year 1. The OM's own pro forma shows Year-1 taxes of $785,683 (South Carolina reassesses at 100% of purchase price on sale) versus $639,392 T12 — a 23% step-up the template's flat 3% escalator doesn't replicate . Second, other income (16–20% of net rent) is entirely broker-Year-1, not T12-verified — no independent source exists to corroborate it, and it sits above the typical 2–12% benchmark band . Both push actual Year-1 NOI below what a first glance at the table suggests.
The deal is far more sensitive to rent growth than to exit cap. Holding exit cap at 5.25%, levered IRR runs from 6.0% at 0.5% rent growth to 12.0% at 2.0% growth — precisely the range between the forecasting engine's drawdown-flagged base case and the judgment-based assumption used here, and well below the OM's 4.25% (which would produce ~15%+ IRR, explaining why the OM's own numbers look so much better) . On the supply-shock side (near-zero rent growth, the scenario a slower Summerville lease-up implies), IRR falls to the 6–8% range — below the 12% hurdle. On cap rate, widening 50 bps to 5.75% (plausible for a restricted-income asset with a thinner buyer pool) cuts IRR to 7.9% at 2% rent growth. The deal clears the hurdle in the base case; it doesn't have much room for error on either lever.
This is a real asset in a real demand corridor, priced right around fair value once the deed restriction is priced correctly into the comp basis — but the OM's own operating assumptions (rent growth, occupancy, taxes) are stacked to make the deal look better than the data supports. Go at or below the $49.7M ($207K/unit) breakeven, insist the seller's Year-1 tax and rent-growth assumptions get replaced with the comp-supported figures above, and get clarity on how the AMI deed restriction is treated at a future exit before this moves past screening.

I've written the IC memo for Preserve at Ridgeville as a 7-page Word document with Allen Harrison branding. It recommends a conditional approval to bid at or below about $49.73M ($207,194/unit), which is the price that produces a 12.0% levered IRR and 1.69x equity multiple at 65% LTV .
Your logos have white lettering ("HARRISON" and the H), so they'd disappear on a white page. I placed them on navy panels (the navy from the "Build to Serve" tagline) on the cover and in the page header, and used the logo's steel blue for accents. The cover shows the recommendation and the key numbers.
The memo has 11 sections:
Two corrections to my last reply:
The recommendation doesn't change.
One part of the memo is my judgment rather than a model result: I underwrote 2.0% rent growth, where the forecasting engine gave a flat base case at low confidence. The IRR moves about two points for every half-point of rent growth, so committee members should know that assumption is mine.
