Call with Jeff Hadzima, they have been bogged down on a few transactions, and haven\'t dug into the materials as of yet. I reminded him of the closing date of December 4th. He will look through the materials, and will circle back with any questions. -- duke

PW & DF spoke with Bert Crouch. 2501 M had fallen through the cracks thus far due to a closing last week and some other pressing items on their agendas. Jed Melson has been assigned to run point on it, and should be reaching out to us tomorrow to go over the deal (he is in CA doing a property tour today). They are considering GP investments these days, and are actually looking to close two of them shortly. He would be interested in the SF multifamily development deal. -- duke

DF - Good call with Jeff Hadzima. He went to Georgetown (graduated in 2008), so he knows the area. He liked the plan, asked about the timing of the sellout as well as the market in general for condos. Discussed the unit mix, and the involvement of the Mayhood companies. Asked that I send him the materials that I have on it, and from our initial conversation he said it sounded like something they might be interested in pursuing. -- duke

Unlikely - Call with Michael Givner and Mike Hyung. Overall ended the call not overly optimistic about the fit. They were struggling with the PRP sponsorship on a condo development deal as PRP has never done one before. He really likes that location, but thought the all-in basis was a bit high. With needing $1,000 psf on the exit, he would likely only be able to structure it as preferred equity / mezz and would only be able to take it up to 80 - 85% of the stack, leaving PRP with 15-20%. He had asked the following questions, which if we continue discussions I will need to provide: 1) What was PRP\'s deposit on the contract; 2) Can it be re-developed / expanded by-right? ; 3) What are the ceiling heights (I said currently about 8ft, but will expand up to 9ft with more efficient VAV boxes); 4) Support for PRP\'s sponsorship from a residential condo development standpoint -- duke

Passed - In order to consider JV opportunities, threshold would be for a 50x50 venture. They do not see themselves as a fund, but more of a developer with money, and as such they are willing to take some additional risks. They target urban locations, but would also consider the nearby suburbs. Specifically mentioned he would like to do something in Tysons, but not a future metro stop as he needs to be able to quantify it. See investment criteria above for additional information. -- duke
