Arkad Group Corp. (“Arkad”) is a privately owned, fully integrated real estate

investment firm created to capitalize on the rising inventory of distressed

properties held by private and public financial institutions. Arkad and its

afiliated entities are New Jersey & New York based companies that specialize

in the analyzing acquisition, renovation, management & disposition of

distressed residential & commercial real estate in specific micro-markets

located throughout NJ/NY.

Our team has spent the last 5 years purchasing & disposing of a variety of

distressed Rsidential (“RES”) & Commercial (“COM”) assets including: REO

(Bank Owned Assets), pre-foreclosure (short sales), NPN’s (both by units and

bulk), free & clear acquisitions and auction house & county sales, all with great

success. We have accomplished the same by following disciplined acquisition

methods and superior management in order to secure investment capital

from private investors. Arkad’s model targets assets with the intent to redevelop

& sell or hold & lease.

In the upcoming year, we are expanding our operations to maximize the

opportunities in distressed real estate through our newest venture:

INVESTING IN REAL ESTATE AT THE RIGHT TIME …AND IN THE RIGHT WAY.

 “When we first started purchasing and renovating

homes, we had no idea of the impact it would have on the

lives of the people we met and the communities we helped to

transform.”

Daniel Rivera, Co-Founder.

THE COMPANY

Arkad was formed in 2007 through the merget of NJ

Innovative Investors, Inc & NJ Home Remedy, LLC. Both

successful acquisition/disposition companies with highly

reputable leaders and years in the investment arena. They

decided to put their minds together to create the perfect

one stop shop real estate investments company. This

merger also placed Arkad in the real estate management

business. Since then, as a company, we forged to acquire

full or partial interest in a debt mitigation company, a

credit repair company, a collections company, and a real

estate brokerage. It has also grown its partnerships and

joint ventures to target larger sectors such as the Multi-

family (“MUL”) (7-55 Units) & distressed development

acquisitions as well as construction and management .

Arkad’s structure follows the ideal of convenience for

sellers to sell, buyers to buy, and investors to invest. Our job

is taking an investment from A to Z with the least amount

of hassle, while reaping high yield returns.

The company strategically chose progressive downtown

New Brunswick, New Jersey as home for it’s headquarters

in 2008. Since then, we have added locations in Jersey

City and Newark, NJ and New York, NY.

All of the Arkad companies, employees & principals share

the same moral values, drive and energy. The

combination of these 3 principals makes for a very

powerful team.

OVER THE LAST 24 MONTHS

I. Through Arkad Group Investments, LLC, our residential

acquisition division, we acquired & disposed of a mix of

25 SFR and MUL. That’s an average of 1.2 properties per

month with an approximate average of $ 35,200 per

property.

II. Arkad Group has been able to secure 1M in private

capital, which was subsequently leveraged providing

the capabilities to purchase $3.7M in distressed

property. These funds have been raised through our

own funds, private equity partners, private lenders,

institutional lenders, accredited and non-accredited

investors, hard-money lenders, business affiliates, friends

and even family. The funds are currently being utilized

to purchase distressed residential & commercial real

estate assets for the purpose of renovating and

remarketing or repositioning for cash flow on a long-

term hold basis.

III. We have added fully integrated in-house Brokerage

services to our company. We were able to secure the

exclusive rights to the New Brunswick area of the rapidly

expanding franchise Next Age Preferred Realty, LLC.

The purpose of this move was to a) gain market share

by establishing local market presence b) to create

more streamlined and profitable liquidations process for

our investment properties and c) take advantage of

opportunistic local rental and multifamily investment

markets.

IV. Arkad Group became a registered bulk buyer with

FREDDIE MAC in 2012. Arkad is currently part of the pilot

BULK SALE program created to liquidate large amounts

of REO properties directly to investors like us. The

portfolios being reviewed by the Arkad team vary from

5 to 100 assets per week. These assets are specific to

our target areas.

WHEN OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS

The lack of liquidity in the financial markets, has

allowed for a profitable, yet temporary window of

opportunity for real estate investors like Arkad.

Lending institutions are “liquidating” assets in order

to balance their sheets and Arkad has been

successful at acquiring distressed assets at

phenomenal discounts due to the current

economic conditions. Our purchase criteria are

based on what we call our “Distressed Meter”.

Factors such as the condition, marketability, day on

market and migration statistics are constantly

assesed. Specific metrics have been implemented

for different asset classes and target micro markets

in NJ and NY. Assets come to Arkad from Realtors,

wholesalers, REO Brokers, and as of this year (2012)

we have been accepted into the Fanny Mae and

Freddie Mac bulk sale pilot program! This is truly an

exciting time for Arkad as we step into the larger

portfolio arena enabling us to obtain even greater

discounts thus creating more profit. We will

continue to combine these advantages to achieve

our ultimate goal of becoming the premier

distressed asset repositioning organization in the tri-

state area.

 

THE OPPORTUNITY

DEMAND

Right now rents are higher than ever before at a 5.2%

increase per year in most eastern metro areas. Some

areas in central NJ have shown both a strong

demand for housing in both the ownership and rental

markets. As of June 2012 areas like Middlesex county,

NJ showed an average of 42 days on the market!

Hudson County, NJ showed 9% increase in rental

rates. According to Jeff Otteau, with demand

exceeding availability. One key component pushing

this demand is the increse in aging baby-boomer

households with underfunded retirement plans. Baby-

boomers are selling their homes and transitioning to

rentals.

IN NEW JERSEY

Property values are at an all time low and rental

demand & rates are at historically high levels. With

that being said, New Jersey’s proximity to Metro New

York keeps buyer’s demand high in a number for both

the purchase and rental markets in NJ. Jeffrey Otteau

leads the New Jersey real estate appraisal and

consulting firm the Otteau Valuation Group, which

many REALTORS follow. He noted in February the sales

pace in New Jersey this year was already better than

the last 4 years, even exceeding the 2010 surge of the

homebuyer tax credits.

Foreclosure activity in New Jersey doubled last month

compared with a year earlier, as lenders resumed

their efforts to evict homeowners in default, RealtyTrac

reported Wednesday. One in every 1,566 homes in the

state received a foreclosure filing in July.

Lenders had been stopped in their tracks for over a

year in the state, as they dealt with questions about

"robo-signing," in which they were accused of abusing

homeowners' rights in their rush to take back distressed

properties. Several court rulings and

settlements have cleared the way for lenders

to begin foreclosing again in the state.

ARKAD’S ADVANTAGE

TARGETED METRICS

Highly disciplined purchase price

metrics

Arkad has developed proprietary

analytic platforms that assist us

when we need to generate our

offers based on a 65-70% LTV of all-

in costs (acquisition purchase price

plus repair costs) vs. anticipated

post-rehab resale value. This

disciplined approach helps to

protect our investments from loss of

capital. Arkad has been able to

create a very refined list of 29

specific towns in which our models

work very well. Our team updates

this list every 90 days in order to

adjust to micro market fluctuations.

Our marketing efforts and focus is

exclusive to those areas.

 

MANAGEMENT

Local knowledge

Senior management has over

50 years of combined

management experience &

has participated in over 500

real estate transactions in the

past 10 years. Over this

period, Arkad’s team has

developed & nurtured

countless invaluable resources

and relations with brokers,

contractors, architects,

engineers, lawyers, surveyors,

accountants, banks, etc. We

currently serve on the board

of a number of management

and investment groups and

associations around the state

as a method of increasing our

presence.

 

 

INFRASTRUCTURE

Superior infrastructure

In-house capabilities & an

extensive 3rd party network

facilitate very effective

sourcing & disposition of

distressed properties. Our

departments work in

conjunction assuring

consumer satisfaction

throughout the entire

acquisition or liquidation

process.

Our location is also is a

benefit. As we are close to all

major highways & essentially

located in the center of NJ.

Our office is less than a mile

from the Middlesex county.

Sherriff Sales Office.  

 

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES

Arkad has demonstrated a competitive advantage in its disposition division by offering consumers value added real

estate assets at competitive prices. At Arkad we believe the product is just as important as the profit. Our properties often

receive multiple purchase offers or rental income that is above average. Our investment models, corporate structure and

proprietary software platforms further enhance our capabilities and ability to create beautifully remodeled, mechanically

upgraded, and environmentally friendly homes at below average costs. Additionally we are always seeking ways to

streamline our processes & maximize earnings. Arkad’s research & acquisitions teams have the ability to perform due

diligence on assets, single or portfolio based, within hours of receiving a lead. Local market knowledge & superior analytic

tools allow for us to make offers quickly & more often than the competition. Our ability to focus on specific regions & asset

types as well as act fast has been the key to our success and will only improve as we continuously improve our systems.

 

INVESTMENT FUNDS

We provide competitive returns!  

The ability of having access to

quick usable capital is a major

asset to posses in our

competitive real estate markets.

Arkad Group recognized this

early on & moved forward on the

creation of a funding division

designed to serve the needs of the

company and it’s investors around

the nation. We give our investors a

vehicle that allows for peace of

mind and gives us the ability to

acquire an asset faster than any

other investor.

ARKAD’S STRATEGY

Properties are acquired in areas that show low to mid value

fluctuations, stable DOM and low absorption rates (3-5 Months).

We then add value by upgrading our properties to exceed

consumer expectations. Our proprietary demographic models

have allowed us to choose specific towns and micro-markets

with the highest flip/hold potential. Arkad currently

concentrates its efforts on 29 SPECIFIC towns in NJ and a number

of neighborhoods in NY where its business model works

particularly well. We also determine our “sweet spots” by paying

attention to areas where large portions of qualified buyers are

currently purchasing. We then seek out properties in those

locations. Additionally we implement proven strategies

designed to engage and involve our prospective buyers such as

offering customizable options and upgrades.

Factors such as migration, commuting, development and job

creation are closely observed all the while keeping in line with

our purchasing guidelines. Specifically ROI, Cap Rate, DCR and

CCR. This methodical and disciplined approach helps to

minimize risk and secure earnings for the company and its

investors. Our model allows for a 35% decline in market values as

a “cushion” for any given project before investment capital is at

risk.

1) TACTICAL LIQUIDATIONS – A wise person once said, “Time is money”

and we all know this is true. Arkad has streamlined the entire process in

order to maximize profits. Remodeling and upgrades are made to almost

all of our properties. Not only does this boost value and desirability but it

also helps meet lender requirements. Although large portions of buyers

obtain conventional financing, FHA buyers cannot be ignored. In

addition, ALL potential buyers are REQUIRED to be qualified by an Arkad

approved lender, thus increasing control and minimizing delays in the

mortgage process.

Additionally, our properties are competitively priced. In many cases

properties are on the market for as little as two weeks before procuring a

buyer. Our average DOM is 32 days on the market.

Our in-house brokerage capabilities and our vast network of brokers in

the area in combination with our superior product, give us the ability to

sell properties faster than market averages.

2) RENT TO OWN - If our aggressive liquidations methods aren’t able to

dispose of an asset, we can offer it to a new range of buyers who will be

willing to put a large down payment and make rent payments while a)

their credit is being repaired by our in-house credit management

division, b) we structure a down payment and/or closing cost incentive

type of transaction or c) we implement a combination of both.

3) WHOLESALE – In the event that an asset does not live up to it’s profit

potential we can “wholesale” the asset. In this strategy we would be

liquidating the asset to another investor or a retail cash buyer

immediately for a reduced profit margin increasing liquidity for more

lucrative investments.

4) REFINANCE & RENT - In rare cases, Arkad may add an asset to its rental

portfolio and assume all management. We would be securing

conventional lender financing to secure the asset and free up investor

capital. The asset is then rented out for long-term hold and cash flow

purposes. These assets may be also bundled and sold as a package to

other investors.

A VISION

THE FOUNDATION OF OUR BUSINESS WAS

SINGLE FAMILY HOMES. THIS IS HOW WE

GOT INTO THE BUSINESS. WE STARTED BY

BUYING FORECLOSED PROPERTIES AT THE

SHERRIFFS OFFICE. ARKAD EXELLS AT

LOCATING, ACQUIRING, RENOAVTING,

MANGING AND LIQUIDATING REAL ESTATE.

ARKAD GROUP INVESTMENTS, LLC

The strength of the company has always been its

ability to locate underperforming real estate assets

with the possibility of short or long-term upswing.

ArkadGroup began with single-family homes and

eventually diversified to other larger and more

complex assets. Arkad has always had the

philosophy of buying low, reposition value and

creating profit at the core of its business models.

The company’s primary focus is to locate, structure,

acquire, renovate and re-sell distressed residential

property (1-55 Units) in Central/Northern N.J. & N.Y.

areas (Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens & Staten

Island). It accomplishes the same by following a

disciplined business model which includes marketing

strategies targeted to distressed assets, specialized

REO Brokerages, asset managers, servicing

companies, banks, and trustees just to name a few.

ArkadGroup Investments LLC follows the same

proven business model that worked for us during the

first wave of foreclosures (2007-2009). Arkad Group

Investments, LLC receives the full backing and

support of its sister companies in order to

accomplish their purchasing goals.
