Project Thesis
The driving forces behind this project are the broader trends around urban renaissance in tier 2 cities, declining home ownership, and the compelling demographics & growth trends in Cincinnati specifically.
Urban Renaissance
Tier 2 cities across the US are experiencing a renaissance as cost of living soars, especially in larger cities. Young individuals and families, now with more freedom to choose where to live due to remote work and changing norms in career development, look to escape the traditional metros of New York, Chicago and LA.
Cincinnati Growth Trends
Cincinnati specifically is one city that has seen incredible growth. The West End neighborhood of Cincinnati in particular is unlocking new potential growth through a landmark investment from FC Cincinnati. The soccer club is investing over $300M to develop a dynamic mixed-use district around its stadium.
“Demolition is underway for phase one of a $300 million, 8.5 acre best-in-class mixed use district north of TQL Stadium. The district will include a hotel, apartments, office space, retail, restaurants, and a privately owned public green space. Located in the West End, adjacent to Over-the-Rhine and near Downtown, the district will be at the heart of Cincinnati.”

Declining Home Ownership
Along with general cost of living increases, home ownership has now become out of reach for most Americans. Renters, especially Gen Z and millennials, are looking for apartments they can turn into long-term homes. High-quality design is an incredibly important part of this, especially with these hypervisual generations now driven by aesthetics as they are inundated with inspiration on social media.

AJ Capital Partners, a real estate investment firm with backing from Starwood Capital & other prominent institutions, launched Memoir Residential in May 2023. Though AJCP has traditionally focused on hotels, they are bringing the same level of branding an aesthetics to residential to solve for the same issue Heberle Lofts hopes to address in Cincinnati.

Competitive Advantage
Heberle Lofts has two key advantages when comparing it to other investment opportunities: the sponsorship team and their unique access to materials, and the decision to develop a condo project without restrictive HOAs – giving investors autonomy not typically seen in these developments.
Sponsor's Unique Access
Led by Zada Development and Golan Marom, its Founder & Principal, the project benefits from his ownership in the cabinet showroom, Aster Cucine. This connection ensures access to high-quality materials & design services at significantly reduced costs, allowing Zada to develop a superior product at a low basis for its investors.
![](https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/65eab183a5bef4d461226fea/65f46fefadaf1daf882202a9_Frame%204.png)
Investor Autonomy
Additionally, the project's flexibility in allowing both long-term and short-term rentals, uncommon in condo developments, presents a lucrative investment avenue. Short-term rentals, in particular, offer the potential for 3-4x the revenue compared to long-term rentals, further underscored by Cincinnati's appeal as a top destination, new attractions, and the overall strength of the local market.

Project Financials
For Pre-Sale investors, Heberle Loft condos range in price between $285,000 - $455,000 and are expected to appraise & sell at a +10% markup to Pre-Sale prices once completed. The charts below show rental income and return potential in Long-Term and Short-Term Rental scenarios.

OTR Paramount Loft
The OTR Paramount Loft is one of the key Short-Term Rental (STR) comps found in our underwriting process. This is a similar loft unit to what will be constructed at Heberle Lofts, and is less than 5 blocks away from our property. It has strong year round performance with older & lower quality design and finishes.
