REM RE Fund I, LP is a multi-asset residential investment fund focused on value-add and opportunistic acquisitions throughout Southern California. The Fund pursues a three-prong strategy across fix and flip projects, single-family development (build-to-rent and build-to-sell), and garden-style multifamily development, primarily concentrated in Los Angeles County and Orange County. The Fund has already deployed $5M in Class A capital and is now open to Class B investors to participate in an expanded acquisition pipeline.
Why This Opportunity
Proven first-phase execution: Class A capital of $5M is fully drawn and deployed, with Class B investors entering alongside an already-performing portfolio rather than a blind pool
Three-prong diversified strategy: Capital is allocated across fix and flip projects, single-family developments, and multifamily developments to balance short-duration capital recycling with longer-term development upside
Supply-constrained target markets: Southern California's persistent housing shortage, restrictive zoning, and 10M+ population in LA County alone create structural tailwinds for residential value creation
Disciplined acquisition criteria: Renovation projects are targeted at 50-70% of after-repair value, and fewer than 5% of sourced projects are ultimately approved for investment
Vertical integration: The Fund works directly with affiliated entities Real Estate Mechanics (brokerage and asset management) and PM Real Estate Services (general contracting) to maintain tight control over acquisition, construction, and disposition
Projected returns: 19.0% target return with a 2.33x equity multiple over a 7-year hold
Deal Structure
Fund size: Up to $50M total commitments ($5M Class A already closed, up to $45M Class B currently open)
Minimum investment: $50,000 (Class B) or $100,000 (Class A)
Fund domicile: REM RE Fund I, LP, with REM RE Fund I GP, LLC serving as General Partner
Investment horizon: 7-year fund life, with no additional long-term projects acquired after Year 5
Leverage: Up to $60M line of credit at an 8% estimated interest rate, structured at a maximum 55% loan-to-cost
Investor Classes
Class A: $100,000 minimum, 17.25% target IRR, 3.5x equity multiple, 8% preferred return
Class B: $50,000 minimum, 19.0% target IRR, 3.0x equity multiple
Class A capital is fully drawn at closing. Class B investors participate alongside the existing Class A portfolio with capital deployed into both existing appreciated projects and new value-add acquisitions.
Three-Prong Investment Strategy
Fix & Flip / Fix & Hold: Distressed residential properties acquired at 50-70% of after-repair value, renovated and sold within 6-8 months targeting 12% profit per property. Properties generating 6%+ cap rates are retained as long-term holds
Single-Family Development (BTR and BTS): Land and heavily distressed properties acquired at land value minus demolition cost. Full acquisition-through-disposition cycle of 24-36 months. Stabilized rental projects refinanced through Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae agency debt
Multifamily Development: Low to medium density garden-style or mid-rise complexes up to 50 units, targeting municipalities actively mitigating housing shortages through density bonuses and streamlined permitting. Target 6%+ cap rate on both rental and resale product
Geographic Focus
1st priority markets are Los Angeles County and Orange County, with secondary allocation to San Diego and Ventura Counties and additional consideration for San Bernardino, Riverside, Kern, and Santa Barbara Counties.

Los Angeles, CA
REM RE Fund I concentrates its investments in Southern California, one of the most supply-constrained residential markets in the United States.
Los Angeles and Southern California Fundamentals
Los Angeles County population exceeds 10 million residents, one of the largest residential real estate markets in the U.S.
Persistent housing shortages, restrictive zoning, and elevated construction costs have constrained new supply, supporting long-term property values across well-located submarkets
Structural demand for both rental and for-sale housing driven by population density, employment concentration, and limited developable land
Southern California continues to attract consistent demand from renters and owner-occupants across diverse price points
Municipal initiatives encouraging accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and infill development have expanded opportunities for renovation and redevelopment strategies, particularly in Los Angeles and Orange County
Value-Add Environment
The combination of aging housing stock, ADU-friendly policy frameworks, and sustained residential demand creates an environment where disciplined acquisition and active project execution can generate meaningful value creation. Southern California's supply-demand imbalance continues to support pricing for renovated product across single-family, multifamily, and build-to-rent inventory.
