Ballast Rock Announces Launch of Sunbelt Multifamily Fund III

Published

on

–News Direct–

Ballast Rock, the diversified investment management firm, today announced it has launched Sunbelt Multifamily Fund III LP (SB3), the third private equity real estate fund in its Sunbelt series.

Ballast Rock is targeting a raise of $100 million for the fund, which, like the previous Sunbelt Funds, will focus on acquiring and renovating a diversified portfolio of workforce multifamily properties in the U.S. Southeast. Ballast Rock has identified and is performing due diligence on a value-add property that would represent the first acquisition for the new fund.

The broader real estate market has experienced tremendous uncertainty, given the rise in interest rates and disruptions in the credit markets. The team have patiently been assessing the long-term impacts of these changes on our target markets and are excited to have found a potential first investment for SB3 said Thomas Carroll, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Ballast Rock. We have remained constructive on our core focus, which is workforce multifamily value-add, specifically in the Southeast.

Our team has diligently been underwriting deals since our last acquisition in early 2023 and has looked at close to 400 assets in that time, said Ian Garcia, Chief Operating Officer and Portfolio Manager for the Sunbelt Funds. We are extremely conservative on our underwriting and will only ever consider investing in a deal if we have a high degree of confidence that it is going to clear our stringent investment objectives.

Prior Sunbelt Funds

Ballast Rock launched Sunbelt Multifamily Fund I (SB1) in 2019 and between February 2019 and January 2021 acquired nine properties totaling 1,110 apartment units for $63,630,000. SB1 began dispositions in early 2022, generating gross proceeds of $60,450,000 from the first four properties sold. The 593 apartment units involved were acquired at an average cost of $53,583 per unit and sold at an average cost of $101,939 per unit. Ballast Rock anticipates exiting the remaining five assets in SB1 opportunistically over the next 12 to 18 months.

Sunbelt Multifamily Fund II (SB2), launched in 2021 and between February 2021 and January 2023 acquired nine properties totaling $101,408,000, with 1,039 apartment units.

Published

on

DENVER — Recently, the Securities Commission Malaysia (SC) published a list on its official website of cryptocurrency trading platforms that have not met its local registration requirements, mentioning UVKXE. UVKXE takes this matter seriously and wishes to clarify its credentials and compliance status to its users.

Global Compliance Credentials of UVKXE

UVKXE is committed to operating under legal and compliant principles, upholding a user-first core value. The platform has obtained several certifications from international authoritative regulatory bodies, including but not limited to:

U.S. MSB License
UVKXE has obtained the MSB license issued by the U.S. FinCEN. This certification represents the highest recognition by the U.S. government for financial service institutions, ensuring that UVKXE can legally conduct cryptocurrency-related business.

U.S. SEC License
As one of the few cryptocurrency trading platforms registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), UVKXE complies with securities and investment-related legal regulations, providing users with a safer and more transparent investment environment.

Published

on

DENVER — Recently, the globally recognized cryptocurrency trading platform UVKXE officially announced the completion of its latest security system upgrade. This upgrade significantly enhances the cybersecurity defenses of the platform and introduces cutting-edge anti-scam technologies. Through this technological update, UVKXE demonstrates its commitment to user asset security and proactive measures against potential future cyber threats.

Kevin Anderson, CEO of UVKXE, stated: “User trust is the foundation of UVKXE, and ensuring the security of user assets is always our top priority.

The focus of this security system upgrade is primarily on anti-scam technologies. In response to the ever-evolving online threats and scam tactics in recent years, UVKXE has strengthened its multi-layered protective mechanisms, effectively enhancing the security and responsiveness of the system. The upgrade introduces AI-driven anti-scam technology, which intelligently analyzes user behavior through deep learning algorithms, allowing for rapid identification and isolation of suspected scamming activities.

Through anomaly detection technology, each user login and transaction can be monitored in real time, with timely alerts prompting users to confirm actions, further enhancing the security of the platform.

Kevin Anderson concluded: “We hope every user can enjoy a secure trading experience on UVKXE. By continually optimizing our security strategies, we aim to provide a safer and more convenient cryptocurrency trading experience for our users.”
