EB-5 Capital $27,000,000 25.84%

SOURCES OF FUNDS
25.84%
$104,504,605
37.39%
36.77%
DEVELOPER EQUITY AND SALES PROCEEDS
Developer equity consists of 13 acres of the Property
with clear title, and contributes approximately $2,053,498,
which is 1.96% of the total capital stack. Sales proceeds
will be $37,021,234 in closing proceeds from the sale
of improved lots, homes and apartments projects, for a
combined total of 37.39% of Developer equity and sales
proceeds. Over $10,000,000 in infrastructure costs for the
Project has already been spent.
DOMESTIC FUNDING (I.E., BANK LOAN)
The remaining capital will be secured through domestic
funding (i.e. bank loan), in the amount of $38,429,873
(the “Loan”). This lender will require a first priority, or first
trust deed on the apartment property, with the Investors
in a second position as collateral for the EB-5 portion of
this Loan. Since the EB-5 funds will be the only lender on
the lots and homes, they will have a first position on that
property collateral on that portion of the EB-5 loan. Trust
Deeds give the lender the security they need to take over
the ownership of the property if the borrower defaults
on the Loan. However, it must be noted that as the exact
dates of the need for the capital cannot be determined at
this point in the EB-5 investment process, such financing
has not been put in place. This financing may not be
obtained and may create a delay or halt in the Project, and
should therefore be considered speculative.

1, LP will provide a Loan in an amount of up to $27 million

the term of the Loan, the Developer will make interest-only
payments to the Company, leaving all principal investment
intact and at risk for a period of no fewer than 36 months
or until all I-829 petitions have been approved.
EB-5 LOAN CLOSING
The initial tranche is expected to be in the amount of at
least $7,500,000.
EB-5 LOAN SECURITY
The loan will be secured by the following collateral:
1. A first priority lien on the homes and improved lots
and approximately 65 acres of land.
2. A second priority lien on the apartment units in
the Project.
IN THE EVENT MINIMUM OFFERING IS NOT RAISED BY LENDER
If the Minimum Offering amount, $7,500,000,
is not received, the Offering will be canceled and
the escrow agent will be instructed to return all
Subscription Amounts.

of the Project and to fully finance its capitalization as

LAND DEVELOPMENT
In their letter dated May 29, 2014, the civil engineering
firm Bohannan Huston confirmed the land development
costs and construction schedule of the Project. We
contacted the engineer and confirmed the letter.
CONSTRUCTION AND RELATED FURNITURE, FIXTURES AND EQUIPMENT PURCHASES
In their letter dated May 23, 2014, the architect,
Dekker/Perich/Sabatini confirmed the vertical construction
costs and construction schedule of the Project. We
contacted the architect and confirmed the letter.
ARCHITECTURE AND ENGINEERING COSTS
The confidence letters mentioned above also provide
support for the Architecture and Engineering Cost
provided in the development budget. The 3rd party
company Dekker/Perich/Sabatini Ltd. provided verification
for the architectural soft costs of $586,780. The 3rd party
company Bohannan Huston provided verification for the
engineering soft costs of $777,500. In total, Architecture
and Engineering costs total $1,364,280.
SOURCE OF FUNDS
The sources of funds that will be used to achieve
the objectives of the Project and to fully finance its
capitalization are detailed below.
EB-5 CAPITAL
EB-5 investor capital of $27,000,000 (the “EB-5 Loan”)
will be lent by Woodmont Limited Partnership 1 for
the development of the Project. The loan will have the
following terms:
1. Loan Amount: $27,000,000
2. Whenever the Partnership makes distributions
from net cash flow, the Limited Partners will have
a preferential right to receive up to an amount
equal to 0.5% of their Capital Contributions per
year before the Partnership can make any other
distribution (known as “Preferred Returns”).
Preferred Returns begin accruing on the date the
Lender lends the proceeds of an Investor’s Capital
Contribution to the Project Company. The Limited
Partners’ preferential right is cumulative; that is, if
the Lender fails to distribute the full 0.5% in any
applicable period, the Lender must pay the shortfall
amount to Limited Partners along with any current
Preferred Return before the Lender can make any
distribution to any party in a later period.
3. Loan simple interest of 7.0% to pay for 1% Regional
Center fee, 4.0% for annual broker fee, 0.5% for
Preferred Returns, 0.25% for General Partner fees,
and the remainder to pay for marketing, legal, and
accounting expenses.
The Project Company will pledge a second priority lien
as to the apartments units portion of the Project and a first
priority lien as to the homes, improved lots portion of the
Project and 65 acres of additional land that will be acquired
by the Project Company.

MARKET ANALYSISThe U.S. Department of Commerce, Census Bureau
indicates that in the five years prior to 2014, the real estate
industry has begun to emerge from the recessionary lows
caused by the collapse of the property market. Overall,
the industry revenue is estimated to grow at an average
annual rate of 7.9% over the five years to 2014, though this
increase largely represents the recovery from recessionary
lows. The industry’s fortunes began to turn around in 2012,
when a jump in housing starts caused industry revenue to
experience strong growth, which has continued through to
2014. Over the five years to 2014, the industry is projected
to grow at an average annual rate of 7.9% to $90.4 billion,
though this growth merely represents a recovery from the
lowest levels of revenue industry operators experienced
during the recession. Industry revenue is still far below
recessionary levels, despite an anticipated 14.1% revenue
jump in 2014. Based on these trends, private spending
for both residential and nonresidential construction is
expected to continue to gain strength, especially in
markets that demonstrate positive trends for population
growth and job creation.
Despite continued uncertainty in the financial markets,
driven by turmoil in the Eurozone, many analysts project
continued growth in the United States economy. Of
particular relevance to the Project is the fact that there has
been a steady increase in private construction spending
for both residential and non-residential construction. From
2014 to 2019, home builders are expected to see more
consistent growth as the property market recovers. Also,
2015 and 2016 are expected to be especially strong for the
industry as low interest rates, rising consumer confidence
and higher corporate profit result in strong investment
from consumers and property developers alike. However,
industry revenue growth is anticipated to moderate as
interest rates and higher mortgage rates stabilize lending
to home builders; revenue is expected to grow an
annualized 6.4% to $123.2 billion in the five years to 2019.
It should also be noted that construction costs are based
on actual costs of current construction at the Project.

BERNALILLO SINGLE-FAMILY HOUSING MARKET
Bernalillo County has followed the pattern of the
U.S. housing market, with permits for new single-family
construction declining sharply through 2011 from their
peak in 2005. Per the 1st Quarter 2014 “The Quarterly
Housing Digest,” prepared by DataTraq, there were 357
building permits issued in the Albuquerque Metropolitan
area from January 2014 through March 2014. There
were 1,451 permits issued during 2013. There were 111
permits pulled in NW Albuquerque during the 1st Quarter,
2014, 31.1% of market. 529 permits were pulled in the
NW market during 2013. The price range of the homes
to be sold is $160,000 to $250,000, which is 75% of this
submarket. Additionally, the number of construction
permits for single-family homes of 2,000 square feet and
larger is much greater in North West Albuquerque than in
any other region of the county, indicating strong projected
demand for housing stock in the area of TTMPC.1
ALBUQUERQUE APARTMENT RENTAL MARKET
The Apartment Market Survey Summary, conducted
by CBRE in September 2014 indicated continued strong
occupancy and solid year-over-year rent growth in
Albuquerque. From September 2013 to September 2014,
year-over-year market rent increased 2.18% from $735 to
$751 with all unit types showing rent gains. Studio units
again showed the largest gain at 3.60%, followed by one-
bedroom/one-bath and two-bedroom/two-bath units both
at 2.57%. Two-bedroom/one-bath and three-bedroom/two-
bath unit rents increased by 0.98% and 0.72% respectively.
Furthermore, Albuquerque is home to one of America’s
most stable rental markets, having avoided the massive
occupancy and rent declines experienced by most other
Sunbelt markets in 2009 and 2010.
Since CBRE’s first survey in May 2008, Albuquerque’s
weighted average rent and effective rent are up 11.26%
and 12.03%. Average September market rent showed at
least a small increase every year since 2008. Year over year
market occupancy remained nearly the same, declining
marginally from 94.37% in September 2013 to 94.30%
in September 2014. September 2014 occupancy was
94.68%,. slightly below but in line with the average of
the past seven years. Market-rate property performance
continues to strengthen with September year-over-year
occupancy increasing from 94.17% to 94.37%. Average
market-rate rent increased from $743 to $762, an
improvement of 2.56%.
The development pipeline is expected to deliver about
690 units in 2015 with about 80% of the pipeline being
market-rate properties. These properties will be mainly on
the west side of Albuquerque. Due to a scarcity of zoned or
suitable land, there will be minimal opportunities for significant
market-rate development beyond 2015. Only 180 units
of new market-rate product will be delivered in Northeast
Albuquerque in 2015, and should readily be absorbed.
The percentage of surveyed properties with occupancy
of 95% or better in September 2014 decreased slightly
to 53% from 59% in September 2013. The September
year-over-year percentage of properties with 90% or higher
occupancy increased from 86% to 89%, indicating overall
strengthening of the market. The number of properties
with occupancy below 85% decreased from 14% of total
inventory to 11%. However, there was an increase in those
below 80% occupancy from less than 1% to 2%. A pie chart
for Albuquerque occupancy can be seen below2:

GEOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS
The Woodmont Regional Center geographic area
of focus encompasses Bernalillo, Sandoval, Torrance,
and Valencia counties within the State of New Mexico.
The TTMPC project is located in Bernalillo County, in
Albuquerque, New Mexico.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, New Mexico’s
population has grown 14.5% from 2000-2011 to a high
of 2,082,224 in 2011, making it the 36th most populated
state. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2010,
New Mexico boasted a total gross state product (“GSP”) of
$75,500,000,000 USD, making it the 38th wealthiest state
in terms of GSP. The state also ranked 44th in the nation in
terms of annual per capita personal income with $17,261. As
of September 2012, New Mexico has an unemployment rate
that is over a point lower than the national average of 7.9%
at approximately 6.4%. According to the Bureau of Labor
Statistics, as of September 2012, New Mexico has 794,600
nonfarm jobs of which 3.8% are in manufacturing, 11.0% are
in leisure and hospitality, 16.7% are in trade, transportation
and utilities, and 15.8% are in education and health services.
The service sector accounts for 70.1% of the New Mexico
economy. The state’s tax laws are supportive of a pro-business
environment. New Mexico levies a corporate income tax
ranging from 4.8% to 7.6%, and the state has no state
property tax, no local income tax, no inventory tax, and no
tax on real estate transfer. Additionally, the state levies a New
Mexico gross receipt tax of 7% on all goods and services.
Businesses are attracted by New Mexico’s warm climate,
diverse economy, relative proximity to major domestic
markets, proximity to Mexican markets and low taxes.
BERNALILLO COUNTY AND ALBUQUERQUE
Bernalillo County is in central New Mexico, stretching from
the East Mountain area to the Volcano Cliffs of the west mesa.
Bernalillo County will be the location of the Project outlined in
this plan. The Rio Grande River divides the city into east and
west sides; the city is further bisected by two major interstate
freeways, the I-25 (north/south) and the I-40 (east/west).
Historic Route 66 also runs through Albuquerque.
LABOR FORCE & UNEMPLOYMENT
The labor force of Bernalillo County is well-educated, with
30.5% of the workforce 25 years or older holding a Bachelor’s
degree or higher and 84.4% who are high school graduates.
The county is home to a skilled and predominantly white-
collar workforce well-suited to the kinds of housing that
would be created through TTMPC. Importantly, Bernalillo
County is characterized by a significant percentage of family
households and low residential turnover.

MARKET FEASIBILITY
An appraisal report has been conducted on the
proposed Project by David Pearson, MAI, as of April 30,
2014 which includes the existing value of the Project and
a comprehensive Market Feasibility Analysis and Forecast.
We contacted the appraiser and confirmed the appraisal
was prepared by an MAI appraiser.
The Project will include the completion of 506 apartment
units, construction of 215 residential lots, and completion
and sale of 128 residential single family detached homes.
Targeting middle-class professionals and families, the Project
offers residents a safe community with local amenities that
include recreational parks and trails, clubhouses, commercial
properties, schools, and medical facilities. This new home
community, Durango, will also offer:
• Varied housing options: Single-family homes
at Durango include one- and two-story homes
with between two and six bedrooms. Residential
properties range in size between 1,700 square
feet to over 2,900 square feet and are sited on lots
ranging from 45’ to 70’ wide, attracting residents in
the middle to upper-middle class income ranges.
• Customized floor plan design: The homes will
be differentiated from the competition through a
“Design Your Own Home” concept, allowing buyers
to customize their chosen floor plans with easy-to-
use computer design software. Home buyers can
add a bonus room, bedroom, bathroom, den, office,
master bedroom suite, deck, extra car garage,
or they can enlarge a family room to suit their
individual needs.
• Home prices: The homes will be priced from
$192,990 to $248,990, and the Developer projects
six sales per month.
The Developer will build two apartment projects,
Sonata and Adagio, with a total of 506 units. Sonata will
consist of 260 townhome style apartments with individual
private entries and one or two car attached garages. The
apartments will be one, two or three bedrooms and range
from 781 to 1,218 square feet and monthly rental rates will
be $929 to $1,268 per month. The lease rate is projected
to be 15 units per month. Adagio will consist of 270 garden
style apartments with two and three story buildings. The
apartments will be one, two or three bedrooms, and will
range from 771 to 1,222 square feet and monthly rental
rates will be $917 to $1,198 per month. The lease rate is
projected to be 15 units per month. At the completion and
rental stabilization of Sonata and Adagio, the Developer
will either sell the projects or obtain permanent financing
to pay off the Investor’s loan. The completed value of
Sonata and Adagio are based upon the Broker Opinion of
Value, prepared by Colliers International dated May 19,
2014. We contacted the broker and confirmed the Broker
Opinion of Value.
The Developer will also build and sell 215 improved lots
which are already under contract for sale to several local
homebuilders. These lots are already under contract with
these homebuilders and range from 50’ x 105” in size and
up to 74’ x 150’. The prices range from $60,000 per lot to
$90,000 per lot, depending on the size.

EXIT STRATEGY The intended strategy to repay the loan will be derived
from sales of the homes, which will be sold to third party
homebuyers, the residential lots will be sold to third party
home builders and the apartment projects will either
be sold to a third party or refinanced with permanent
mortgages. As the homes, lots and apartments are sold or
refinanced, the Project Company may continue to utilize
proceeds for its ongoing business operations, including
additional real estate development and construction
activities, until that time when each Investor’s I-829
submission is approved by USCIS.
TEA DESIGNATIONThe Project is located in Albuquerque, New Mexico
which is located in Bernalillo County. On May 14, 2014,
Woodmont Regional Center, LLC received a letter from
the New Mexico Department of Workforce Solutions
certifying Census Tract 9406 and 47.15 in Bernalillo County,
New Mexico as a Targeted Employment Area. The TEA
unemployment rate of 11.3% exceeds the required rate
of 11.1%, which is equal to 150% of the 7.4% national
average annual rate for 2013. This indicates that the
minimum EB-5 investment amount is reduced to $500,000
per investor from $1,000,000. USCIS will determine TEA
designation at the time of making the investment or
at the time of filing the I-526 Petition, and current TEA
Designation may be subject to change.
REGIONAL CENTEROn March 31, 2014, Woodmont Regional Center,
LLC was designated by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration
Services (“USCIS”) as an EB-5 regional center. The
designation encompasses four counties in New Mexico;
Bernalillo County, Torrance County, Sandoval County,
Valencia County.
The Regional Center has been approved for the
following NAICS codes and industry categories:

JOB CREATION AND ECONOMIC IMPACT
ECONOMIC ANALYSIS: JOB CREATION STUDY METHODOLOGY
Wright Johnson, LLC, (“WJ”) has been retained by WRC to perform an economic assessment.
The focus of the study is to analyze the Regional Center impacts of the construction of a residential development
located in Albuquerque, New Mexico, within the county of Bernalillo. WJ used RIMS II to model the total economic
impact associated with various levels of site investment and employment. WJ examined the project provided by WRC
using a multi-industry sector, segregated-region model. Using this model, WJ was able to develop independent forecasts
for the proposed use of the Project. This segregation of forecasts allowed WJ/RIMS II to capture the total net effects
of the proposed target industry. By analyzing the regional developments with different underlying assumptions for the
specific industries, WJ established a realistic prediction of a potential outcome.
The RIMS II economic model employed for the economic and job creation impact assessment study, forecasts the
economic impact a specific event will generate. Over time, competitive pressures emerge and then tend to revert back to
equilibrium. The process, in that way, depicts the so-called “ripple effect” impacts economic changes have on a region. In this
case, the initial economic stimulation reverberates through the WRC economy, spreading outward from the site of the Project
and across the state of New Mexico and the nation. In the long run, the project may materially alter the WRC geographic area
by the substantial amount of new investment and related business development activities, including a corresponding higher
level of output, taxation, investment, employment, and household earnings in the regional economy.
JOB CREATION AND ECONOMIC IMPACT
A complete economic analysis was written for Phase 2 of the Project; please refer to the Economic Impact Report,
dated June 2014 (the “Economic Study”) prepared for Woodmont Regional Center, LLC by Wright Johnson, LLC. The
Economic Study uses the most recently published input/output data for the geographic area and project inputs prepared
by the Developer. Based on the study, the Project would directly and indirectly create and induce 1,188.9 jobs. The
employment summary can be seen below;

ECONOMETRIC CALCULATION METHODOLOGY & RELEVANT NAICS
Econometric modeling for Phase 2 of the Project was performed using the RIMS II to determine the employment
impacts of the proposed development. RIMS II has long been accepted by the USCIS (and many other governmental
agencies) as a valid economically and statistically valid forecasting tool that satisfies the requirements of 8 CFR § 204.6(j)
(4), and 8 CFR § 204.6(m)(3)(i),(iv), and (v). The RIMS II model utilized the following NAICS codes for the report:

JOB CREATION & ECONOMIC IMPACT ANALYSIS HIGHLIGHTS
The Project will:
• Create 1,188.9 new jobs from the construction of
the Project
• Increase investment in the region by a one-time
amount of $100,859,605
• Generate significant and positive economic benefits
for the regional economy
• Result in annual growth in the regional economy by a
gain of $40,328,000 in regional household earnings
Furthermore, the regional economy will experience
increased need for business services of $10,517,000
annually, annual increased demand on utilities of $503,000.
Increased demand for maintenance and construction on an
annual basis will be $59,350,000, and increased demand
for new supplier and vendor links with manufacturers will
be $7,049,000.
JOB CREATION BUFFER
Wright Johnson, LLC determined that 1,188.9
permanent new direct, indirect and induced jobs will be
created by the construction of the Project. This exceeds the
540 jobs required to satisfy EB-5 Program requirements for
54 Investors by a 220% margin. Each of the 54 anticipated
EB-5 investors can be allocated 22 jobs, thus providing a
substantial job-creation buffer for each EB-5 investor.
NEXUS OF JOB CREATION
The job-creating entity is spending the full amount of
the EB-5 capital investment. The following chart illustrates
how EB-5 investor capital will be used to finance the
Project’s development and how jobs will be created:

VERIFIABLE DETAIL
Evidence of expenditures and annual revenue
RESULT
1,188.9 jobs including indirect and induced jobs
JOB VERIFICATION
The Project’s Economic Study identifies the inputs
and multipliers used in the input/output model to predict
the Project job creation. As such, at the I-829 stage, EB-5
investors will be provided the necessary documentation
to validate the results and detail the number of jobs
actually created.
CONSTRUCTION
Construction will last 30 months and the total hard costs
of this Project will be $39,745,434 (in current dollars). The
current RIMS II multipliers are from 2008 so expenditures
must be deflated to 2008 dollars.
According to the Turner Construction Building Cost
Index, the cost index in 2008 was 908 vs. the 4th Quarter
2013 cost index of 878. Because construction costs were
higher in 2008 than current, the construction costs for
this Project will not need to be further reduced to reflect
2008 dollars.

The Turner Building Cost Index is determined by the following factors considered on a nationwide basis: labor rates and productivity, material prices and the competitive condition of the marketplace.
CONSTRUCTION EXPENDITURE CURRENT DOLLARS VS. 2008 DOLLARSCURRENT DOLLARS 2008 DOLLARS
$39,745,434.00 $39,745,434.00
Construction employment was derived through expenditure modeling based upon detailed construction cost figures supplied by WRC. Verification at the I-829 state of the EB-5 process would be receipts, tax documents, and other expense records.
LAND DEVELOPMENT
Land development will last 30 months and the total land development costs of this Project will be $19,160,355 (in current dollars).

$19,160,355.00 $19,160,355.00
FURNITURE, FIXTURES AND EQUIPMENT PURCHASES (EB-5 ELIGIBLE SOFT COSTS)
The total expenditure for FF&E purchases will be $1,572,716 (in current dollars). To convert this figure to 2008 dollars, the 2014 Producer Price Index (PPI) for merchant wholesalers should be used, which is 126.6. Dividing this number by the 2008 PPI gives 116.4. This gives a figure of 126.6/116.4 = 1.09. To convert the $1,572,716 in current dollars to 2008 dollars, the expenditure is divided by 1.09, to yield $1,442,859.

$1,572,716.00 $1,442,859.00
ARCHITECTURAL, ENGINEERING AND RELATED SERVICES (EB-5 ELIGIBLE SOFT COSTS)
According to the Developer, the total architectural and engineering costs of this Project will be $1,364,280 (in current dollars). To convert this figure to 2008 dollar, the 2014 Producer Price Index (PPI) for architectural, engineering and related services should be used, which is 151.2. Dividing this number by the 2008 PPI of 141.0 gives a figure of 151.2/141.0 = 1.07. To convert the $1,364,280 in current dollars to 2008 dollars, the 2012 expenditure is divided by 1.07, to yield $1,275,028.

EB-5 INVESTMENT OVERVIEW AND PROCESS OVERVIEW
This section summarizes certain terms of the proposed
EB-5 investment opportunity. However, prospective
investors are referred to the binding legal documents
related to the investment for specific terms, including the
Confidential Private Placement Memorandum, the Limited
Partnership Subscription Agreement, the Operating
Agreement and the EB-5 Job Allocation Agreement.
EB-5 investors will be offered a total of up to 54 units of
the offering, with each unit consisting of a limited partnership
interest in the Company. The Company is being formed to
provide financing in connection with the development of the
Project. The offering price of each unit is $500,000, with each
investor required to pay an additional $50,000 per unit to
cover costs of the offering, migration services and marketing
fees. If an investor’s I-526 petition is approved, the subscriber
will become a limited partner of the Company. These
limited partners, in the aggregate along with the General
Partner, Woodmont Investment 1, LLC, will own 100% of the
Company. Each subscriber whose subscription is accepted
will be issued a limited partnership interest that represents
a percentage ownership equal to the capital contribution to
the Company made by the subscriber in proportion to the
capital contributions made by all the subscribers.
The amount of funds to be raised from EB-5 alien
investors will be $27 million. If the goal of $27 million is
not achieved, the scope of the development work shall
be reduced by the same percentage as the reduced EB-5
raise. In any event, at least 10 jobs shall be created for each
investor at the time of Project completion. The Company
will in turn make a loan of all investment funds raised from
EB-5 investors, excluding the Administrative Fee (i.e.,
$500,000 per investor) to the Developer (Rainbow Paseo,
LLC) to fund the development of the Project.
SUBSCRIPTION PROCEDURE
Investors may subscribe to the Offering and become
a Limited Partner in the Partnership by delivering the
following documents:
1. Completed and signed Subscription Agreement
2. Completed and signed Partnership Agreement
3. Completed and signed Investor Eligibility
Questionnaire
4. Completed and signed Escrow Agreement
5. Wire transfer of $500,000 representing the
investment amount and $50,000 to the
escrow agent
FUND SUBSCRIPTION AND ESCROW SERVICES
The investor capital contributions will be held in
escrow until the escrow release conditions are satisfied.
After the Minimum Offering amount has been raised,
the escrow agent will deliver the funds held in escrow
on account of that Subscriber to the Partnership as each
Subscriber’s subscription is approved. The escrow company
will be Granite Escrow Services. The funds received from
Subscribers will be released from escrow to the Partnership
upon reaching the Minimum Offering amount and Granite
Escrow Services receiving written confirmation from
the Partnership that the Partnership has accepted the
Subscriber’s subscription for an Interest.
CONDITIONS FOR REFUND OF ADMINISTRATIVE FEE
If the Lender cancels the Offering for any reason,
including failure to reach the Minimum Offering amount,
the Lender will instruct the escrow agent to repay all
Subscription Amounts to Subscribers. Similarly, if the
Lender rejects an individual Subscriber’s subscription
the Lender will instruct the escrow agent to repay that
Subscriber’s Subscription Amount.
37
© 2015 – NMS CAPITAL – DUE DILIGENCE REPORT : CONFIDENTIAL • ThE TRAILS MASTER PLAN – PhASE 2 • CONFIDENTIAL
If the Lender rescinds acceptance of such subscription
prior to the Subscriber filing his or her I-526 Petition
with the USCIS, a Subscriber’s adjustment of status to
conditional permanent resident or immigrant visa or initial
admission as a conditional permanent resident using such
visa is denied, the Lender will use commercially reasonable
efforts to return (or cause the escrow agent to return) that
Subscriber’s Subscription Amount.
If the USCIS denies a Subscriber’s I-526 Petition with
the USCIS, after Subscriber responds to all USCIS Notices
of Intent to Deny (“NOID”) and Requests for Evidence
(“RFE”), appeals the denial, refiles his or her I-526 Petition,
and otherwise exhausts all administrative remedies, the
Lender will use commercially reasonable efforts to return (or
cause the escrow agent to return) the Capital Contribution
to that Subscriber and, unless the Subscriber caused
the denial by one of the actions described in the next
paragraph, the Lender will use commercially reasonable
efforts return the Administrative Fee to the Subscriber.
If the USCIS denies a Subscriber’s I-526 Petition because
of the Subscriber’s misrepresentation, fraud, failure to
comply with the USCIS’ requests, or abandonment, or
failure to provide sufficient evidence to prove a lawful
source of funds, then, after Subscriber responds to all NOID
and RFE, appeals the denial, refiles his or her I-526 Petition,
and otherwise exhausts all administrative remedies, the
Lender may retain all or a portion of the Administrative Fee
as determined in the discretion of the General Partner.

STRENGTHS
LOCATION
The Project is located at the intersection of Paseo Del Norte and Universe Boulevards, two
major arterial streets in Northwest Albuquerque, New Mexico. These arterials provide residents
with convenient access to employment centers, an international airport, golf courses, local
university and regional shopping. Furthermore, CBRE’s Apartment Marketing Study shows that
the Project’s area is among the highest apartment occupancies in the City.
STRONG JOB AND COMMUNITY IMPACT
The Project’s impact on jobs and the community indicate that it will have local support in the
future because it will have the following impact:
• Creation of 1,188.9 new jobs from the construction of the Project, an increase in the
investment in the region by a one-time amount of $100,859,605
• The significant and positive economic benefits for the regional economy
• Result in annual growth in the regional economy by a gain of $40,328,000 in regional
household earnings.
• The regional economy will experience increased need for business services of
$10,517,000 annually, annual increased demand on utilities of $503,000, increased
demand for maintenance and construction on an annual basis will be $59,350,000, and
increased demand on new supplier and vendor links with manufacturers of $7,049,000.
AMENITIES
The Project has many amenities which add to the overall demand, appeal and usability
of the land. The Project offers residents a safe community with local amenities that include
recreational parks and trails, clubhouses, commercial properties, schools, and medical facilities.
The new home community, Durango will also offer:
Varied housing options: Single-family homes at Durango include one- and two-story homes
with between two and six bedrooms. Residential properties range in size between 1,700 sq. ft.
to over 2,900 sq. ft. and are sited on lots ranging from 45’ to 50’ wide, attracting residents in
the middle to upper-middle class income ranges.
Customized floor plan design: The homes will be differentiated from the competition
through a “Design Your Own Home” concept, allowing buyers to customize their chosen
floor plans with easy-to-use computer design software. Home buyers can add a bonus room,
bedroom, bathroom, den, office, master bedroom suite, deck, extra car garage, or they can
enlarge a family room to suit their individual needs.
SSWOT ANALYSIS
43
© 2015 – NMS CAPITAL – DUE DILIGENCE REPORT : CONFIDENTIAL • ThE TRAILS MASTER PLAN – PhASE 2 • CONFIDENTIAL
CONTINUED IMPROVEMENT IN CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY
As mentioned in the Market Analysis section above, there has been a steady increase in
private construction spending for both residential and non-residential construction. From
2014 to 2019, home builders are expected to see more consistent growth as the property
market recovers. Also, 2015 and 2016 are expected to be especially strong for the industry
as low interest rates, rising consumer confidence, and higher corporate profit result in strong
investment from consumers and property developers alike.
DEVELOPER’S EXTENSIVE RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT HISTORY
John K. Murtagh is a successful developer, investor, and manager of construction projects.
Through various affiliates, Mr. Murtagh has been responsible for the build out and development
of over $1 billion in real estate since 1991, including over 5,000 homes, over 2,000 apartment
units, 500,000 square feet of commercial, medical office and retail space, and several master
planned communities in Nevada, New Mexico and Oklahoma. Furthermore, Mr. Murtagh was
a National Director for the National Association of Home Builders as well as past President
and Director of the Southern Nevada Home Builders Association. In addition, Mr. Murtagh has
been affiliated with the National Society of Professional Engineers, the American Society of
Civil Engineers, and the National Association of Industrial and Office Parks. Furthermore, Kelly
Calhoun brings over fifteen years of experience developing land and completing successful
housing construction projects, Susan Berger has over twenty five years of experience in the real
estate development industry, Rick Beltramo has over thirty years of engineering experience,
and J.L. Murtagh brings ten years of construction, land development and customer services
operations experience. To summarize:
• Experienced developer with over 35 years of experience, including 20 years of
development experience in Albuquerque.
• Developer has already completed over 30% of the TTMPC, with the knowledge to
ascertain the future costs and marketing needs in the area.
• Developer has already obtained purchase agreements from four builders to purchase
335 improved residential lots, more than the 215 lots planned in this EB-5 submittal.
• With 20 years of experience building in Albuquerque, the developer has built up a
strong and experienced subcontractor base.
• The management team has over $1 billion in real estate development experience
(including the development of apartment projects and single family homes), and
therefore should have the experience necessary to efficiently execute the Project.
EXISTING AGREEMENTS IN PLACE FOR LOT PURCHASES AND ONLY CONTINGENT UPON SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION
No marketing is expected to be necessary for the improved lots because all 215 improved
lots are under contract to be sold upon completion to local and national homebuilders. Twilight
Homes has agreed to purchase 50 improved lots once completed. DR Horton has agreed to
purchase the other 165 improved lots once completed.

WEAKNESSES
LOW PERCENTAGE OF CAPITAL STACK FROM DEVELOPER EQUITY
Developer equity will contribute approximately $2,053,498, which is 1.96% of the total
capital stack. This may be seen as a negative characteristic of the Project, as investors generally
like to see a vote of confidence through a large equity investment by the Developer.
DEVELOPER DOES NOT HAVE THE CAPITAL STRENGTH OR LIQUIDITY OF THE SEVERAL PUBLIC HOME BUILDERS IN ALBUQUERQUE WHO ARE CONSIDERED COMPETITORS
The Developer is at a disadvantage in terms of financial strength and liquidity when
compared to the major home builders in Albuquerque. This weakness may lead to higher costs,
more expensive financing, and therefore smaller margins and higher retail costs.
BANK FINANCING NOT IN PLACE
The Project is relying on obtaining $38,429,873 (36.77% of the total capital stack) in bank
financing. However, as the exact dates of the need for the capital cannot be determined at this
point in the EB-5 investment process, such financing has not been put in place. This financing
may not be obtained and may create a delay or halt in the Project, and should therefore be
considered speculative.
THE PROJECT IS NOT LOCATED IN A MAJOR METROPOLITAN AREA
As the Project is not located in a major metropolitan area such as Los Angeles, New York,
or Las Vegas, it is at a disadvantage as international Investors are not familiar with Albuquerque
or New Mexico. This may result in a lack of Investor interest as Investors may shy away from
investing in a geographical area they are not familiar with.
LACK OF BRAND RECOGNITION OF PROJECT
The Project is not associated with an international brand name, which may lessen Investor
interest due to a lack of familiarity. These international Investors may see the lack of a major
brand name as a weakness of the Project, and may elect to invest in a different project with a
recognizable brand.
W 45
© 2015 – NMS CAPITAL – DUE DILIGENCE REPORT : CONFIDENTIAL • ThE TRAILS MASTER PLAN – PhASE 2 • CONFIDENTIAL
OPPORTUNITIESOpportunities refer to Project success, not investor opportunities. There is no additional
opportunity for investors beyond timely return of their capital.
ADDITIONAL PROFIT AND GROWTH THROUGH ADDITIONAL PHASES
The Project is the second phase of a much larger development, which will bring a total of
1,500 residential homes, 2,100 apartment units and 75,000 sq. ft. of commercial space. If the
business functions as projected, the additional phases will lead to more profit and organic
growth, and will benefit the business as well as the community.
POPULATION GROWTH
An increase in population in the Project’s vicinity may result in additional demand which
may result in additional profits. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, New Mexico’s population
has grown 14.5% from 2000-2011 to a high of 2,082,224 in 2011, making it the 36th most
populated state.
COMPETITORS HAVE LACK OF LOCAL EXPERIENCE
DR Horton and Pulte Homes management teams have a lack of experience at the local
level, whereas the Developer has built up a strong and experienced subcontractor base due to
the 20 years of building in Albuquerque.
THE DEVELOPER OWNS THE MAJORITY OF THE APARTMENT ZONED PROPERTIES IN NW ALBUQUERQUE.
Since the Developer has a majority of the apartment land in the area (and the only apartment
land that is developable at this time, this poses an advantage as the Developer can control the
number of apartments that go on the market as potential competitors to Sonata and Adagio.
NO COMPETING DEVELOPMENT FIRMS FOR THE LARGE SCALE LOT SALES TO BUILDERS.
Due to the recent recession, the Developer currently enjoys a lack of competition in large
scale lot sales to builders. This is an instrumental advantage for the Developer, as it does not
need to contend with competitors with more financial leverage such as DR Horton and Pulte
Boulders in this submarket.
STEADY ALBUQUERQUE MSA JOB MARKET
As according to “An Appraisal of the Market Value of Multiple Properties within the Trails”
prepared by David Pearson, MAI, dated April 30, 2014 (the “Appraisal”), the number of total
jobs in Albuquerque MSA has risen steadily from December 2010 to December 2013, and has
not changed significantly since December 2010. The fluctuation in jobs since 2005 has been
relatively small considering the latest financial crisis, as total jobs have swung between 371,000
– 400,600 between 2005 and 2013.
O46

THREATS
COMPETITION
Except for large scale lot sales to builders, the Project faces competition from Pulte
Boulders and DR Horton. The strengths of the competition include energy efficiency, no PID/
HOA fees (for Pulte Homes only), competitive homebuilding prices, competitive financing for
homebuyers, and no need for conventional bank financing. These homebuilders are much
larger than the Developer, and have much more financial leverage. This can impact the Project
negatively as competition may be able to use their financial foothold against the Company.
Furthermore, the Developer may be facing more competition over the next several years as the
current financing challenges are resolved.
DELAYS IN CONSTRUCTION AND HIGHER CONSTRUCTION COSTS
Unforeseen delays in construction could cause a delay in creation of construction jobs as
well as a delay in the completion of the Project. Such a delay can have a significant impact
on the EB-5 investment aspect, as jobs created 30 months after the approval of an I-526
petition cannot be counted for EB-5 purposes. Furthermore, higher construction costs may be
experienced in the future as the demand for housing increases.
NO ASSURANCE THAT THE EB-5 PROGRAM WILL CONTINUE
The EB-5 program may be temporarily halted or permanently suspended for various
reasons. If such were the case, the Project would have to rely on a different source for funding
the $27 million in capital (25.84% of the total capital stack). Investors should be aware that such
an event may occur without notice.
COMPETING EB-5 PROJECTS
There are multiple investment opportunities being offered in the United States that
enable foreign investors to participate in the EB-5 Program. These opportunities vary by risk,
capital structure, geographic location, sponsor and regional center experience, and issuer
experience.
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
Woodmont Investment 1 LLC, the General Partner, is affiliated with the Project Company,
the Regional Center, and the General Contractor for the Project. As a result of these
interrelationships, the Loan and Security Agreement and other agreements underlying the
investment structure, and the financial terms of the Interests, have not been negotiated at arm’s
length. If it becomes necessary for the Partnership to collect on the Loan or enforce its terms,
the General Partner may be responsible for managing both lender and borrower. The General
Partner will be under a fiduciary duty to act in the interest of the Partnership and the partners,
and in the event of an unresolvable conflict may be required to engage an independent
manager to represent the interests of one or more parties.

SUMMARY AND OPINIONAs indicated in the SWOT analysis, the Project has a
number of strengths including the Project’s location, the
Project’s strong job and community impact, the extensive
residential development history of the Developer, amenities
offered, existing purchase agreements, and continued
improvement in the construction industry. Opportunities
do exist for this Project, including; additional profit and
growth through future phases, the lack of local experience
of competitors, population growth, no competing
development firms for large scale lot sales to builders, a
steady Albuquerque MSA job market, and the fact that
the Developer owns the majority of apartment zoned
properties in NW Albuquerque. However, it is important to
note the weaknesses of this Project, which include; bank
financing is not in place, the Project is not located in a
major metropolitan area, the Project lacks a recognizable
brand name, the Developer equity represents a low
percentage of the capital stack, and that the Developer
does not have the capital strength or liquidity of the
several public home builders in Albuquerque. Moreover,
threats exist in the form of large competition, competing
EB-5 projects, conflicts of interest, no assurance that the
EB-5 program will continue, and delays in construction.
All construction projects have an inherent construction risk
where construction could be delayed by circumstances
outside the control of the Project Company.
In regards to the risk to the immigrant investors,
each will have the opportunity to have his or her capital
investment and Administrative Fee returned under various
scenarios, though the timing of said return is dependent
upon a number of factors as explained elsewhere in this
report. We believe that an EB-5 loan-to-total-capital ratio
of about 26% will help ensure a high probability of timely
repayment of investor capital, as does the sound exit
strategy. Furthermore, the job creation requirement for
the immigrant investors has a sufficient job cushion with
1,188.90 jobs likely to be created against the Project’s
requirement of 540 jobs.
In order to provide investors with the highest degree
of transparency, Granite Escrow Services will provide each
investor with both quarterly reporting and daily updates of
all account activity, including withdrawals from the escrow
account to the Project Company and incoming payment
distributions, via individualized access of a secured
on-line portal.
Based on the analysis and review of the information
provided, assuming the Project proceeds as is anticipated,
while we are unable to provide any guarantee of such
assurance, we believe that the Project should provide
immigrant investors with a strong degree of confidence,
both in obtaining approval of their I-526 petitions and in
realizing the full return of their capital investment. However,
the investor must take into account the recommendations,
opportunities, and potential weaknesses documented
within this report as important considerations prior to
proceeding with the investment. All investment decisions
should be made solely after review of the Offering
Memorandum and after consulting with a qualified
immigration legal advisor, tax and financial advisor.
