PROPERTY STORY Situated in the northern reaches of Maricopa County in the foothills of Cave Creek and Carefree, Arizona, the subject property, known as Gold, is one of the most unique properties in the valley. The project came to be through a series of acquisitions during 2013 and 2014 totalling ±822 acres and making it one of the largest contiguous landholdings in the northeast valley. The project provides a sense of absolute seclusion while being only a short drive from numerous activities and amenities including, shopping, restaurants, art festivals, golfing, and medical services. Gold is accessed along paved streets starting at Cave Creek Road and School House Road to Fleming Springs Road and through an existing gated community to the base of the project. Fleming Springs Road continues on to the property, through a private gate, and traverses up ±1,500 feet of elevation change all the way to the northern boundary of Gold. Over the years, several potential development plans have been introduced to complement the surrounding area and the site s pronounced characteristics. Surrounding owners have completed extensive infrastructure improvements to their adjacent properties including the complete grading of Fleming Springs Rd through the subject property, underground electric lines and the installation of multiple private wells. While some of the existing wells and powerlines extend through the subject property, they are not intended to serve it and their ability to service any future development will need to be verified through the providers and/or owners. What truly sets Gold apart from any other project in Phoenix are the long-range views the site provides that span across the Phoenix MSA. With several key improvements made to the property and the natural beauty of the desert vegetation and saguaro forests, the future development potential of Gold remains a blank slate for a future owner.

PHOENIX MSA OVERVIEW PHOENIX METROPOLITAN SURROUNDING AREA The Phoenix MSA housing market has continued to improve over the past years as more home buyers are entering and returning to the market. In both the new home and resale home markets we are beginning to see a large increase in boomerang buyers who are re-entering the home market after suffering from ineligibility due to foreclosures 7+ years ago. Together the new buyer and returning buyer are putting a strain on the supply of homes around the valley which has driven the supply of resale homes throughout the Phoenix MSA down to 2.6 months across all price points. Even at these supply levels, Phoenix remains relatively affordable compared to neighboring major metro markets making it very attractive to the younger generation workforce who is being priced out of homeownership in surrounding states. In addition to affordability, job growth remains strong in high skill sectors including tech, financial, and health.

The Northeast valley permit levels have consistently remained between 500 and 600 permits over the past 12 months as the limited land supply constricts any new large scale developments.
