The Baroness is located on an in-fill lot in a suburb of the Charlotte Metro Area. An "in-fill" lot is where an existing older home was torn down OR simply a lot within an older neighborhood that was never built upon while homes around it went up years or decades ago. The benefits of in-fill lots generally are that the neighborhood is established, often times there are less restrictive HOAs or Deed Restrictions (given HOA powers have increased over time), and they are often located closer to major town centers than new developments given their age.
The Baroness is located in the incorporated town called Pineville. The benefit of this small, but rapidly growing town is that it has tighter control over it's governance and generally a deeper connection to it's local residents given it governs itself separately from the City of Charlotte. It also benefits from not having to pay City taxes. Pineville, NC has a population of just over 8,400 people as of July 2023, but don't misread that as a small area...Pineville is actually an incorporated town that is surrounded by the City of Charlotte, NC on 3 sides and one of the fastest growing cities in SC on it's other border (Fort Mill, SC). We believe this makes Pineville one of the more attractive options for new business in the Charlotte area as well as new construction.
The Fenced-in backyard opens the home up to more bookings by families and groups with children or pets who benefit from the feature. Additionally, the lot features plenty of open backyard space that may be used by the company to add additional features such as a pool or sports court. Data from PMS platform Intellihost suggests that pools can increase revenues significantly, see article here: https://intellihost.co/how-pools-affect-listing-revenue/
Data provided by AirDNA has shown that 4-bedroom or larger homes can demand significantly higher Average Daily Rates (“ADRs”) than smaller homes relative to their incremental cost in the Charlotte, NC market. We believe this home was a great Mansion candidate given it was new construction home built by reputable home builder TruHomes and completed in August of 2022.
Additionally, as an in-fill home (a home site that previously had another housing unit on it OR that was never built-upon in a historical area), the lot did not come with Deed or HOA restrictions that may prohibit flexible rental models (many HOAs do restrict short term rentals).
Debt terms were not available at rates that would increase potential returns, so no debt was added to this home. As a strategic refinancing candidate, we intend to add leverage if rates become favorable to investor returns and return proceeds net of additional cash reserves, to ensure debt coverage, to investors.
Note that any total estimated return is obtained through equity appreciation when the property is sold as well as recurring dividends from any positive cash flows after reserves and fees.
