Real estate is a cyclical business, highly sensitive to general and local economic developments and characterized by intense competition and periodic overbuilding. Real estate income and values may also be greatly affected by demographic trends, such as population shifts or changing tastes and values. Government actions, such as tax increases, zoning law changes or environmental regulations, may also have a major impact on real estate markets. Changing interest rates and credit quality requirements will also affect the cash flow of real estate assets and their ability to meet capital needs. Past performance is not necessarily a guide to future performance. Estimates of future performance are based on assumptions that may not be realized. Owning and operating real estate requires specialized management skills and bears management and operating expenses. The risks of investing in this project may be intensified because it is non-diversified. Additional disclosures: This document does not provide individually tailored investment, legal or tax advice.
