The Success Story of The Brookside Apartments: A Decade of Growth and Achievement

Freshcoast Investments • April 24, 2024

As I reflect on the past ten years, I am filled with gratitude and pride at the journey we've undertaken with The Brookside Apartments. Over TEN years ago I became the proud owner of this 24-unit building, marking the beginning of an incredible chapter in our investment portfolio. I wanted to document a bit of the journey that we have had with this awesome investment.

Investing in Excellence

From the outset, our goal with The Brookside Apartments was clear: to create a thriving community and a valuable asset for our investors. We began with essential maintenance tasks, washing the siding, updating windows, and ensuring that every aspect of the property was meticulously cared for. With the support of seven investor partners, we embarked on this journey with determination and commitment.


Navigating Challenges with Resilience

The road to success was not without its challenges. In 2015, the market in Alberta experienced a shift that impacted our initial expectations. However, our team's persistence, consistency, and patience proved to be invaluable assets. We weathered the storm, adapting our strategies and remaining steadfast in our commitment to The Brookside Apartments.



Achieving Milestones and Planning for the Future

Fast forward to today, and I am thrilled to share that our efforts have paid off in ways we could have only dreamed of. This year, we are scheduled to refinance, poised to return double the original capital investment to our investors. Additionally, we have exciting plans to update the exterior siding and decks, improve energy efficiency with new insulation, and enhance the interiors with modern amenities.


A Testament to Collaboration and Vision

The success of The Brookside Apartments is a testament to the power of collaboration and vision. Together, we have increased the equity in this property by an impressive $1.5 million from our original investment of $300,000, resulting in a remarkable 500% total Return on Investment or 50% annual ROI. This achievement underscores the potential of real estate investment and the value of working together towards a common goal.


Looking Ahead with Gratitude and Optimism

As we celebrate this milestone, I extend my deepest gratitude to all who had the trust and confidence in me from the beginning. Your support has been instrumental in our success, and I am honored to have been on this journey with you. As we plan for the future, I invite you to share your thoughts on how we can utilize the profits from our investment and continue to grow together.



Here's to ten years of growth, achievement, and partnership, and to the exciting opportunities that lie ahead. Thank you for your trust, and I look forward to many more years of success with The Brookside Apartments.

Unlocking High-Return Opportunities: Why Accredited Investors Should Consider Private Real Estate Syndications

By Fresh Coast Investments • February 5, 2025
What Is a Real Estate Syndication? A real estate syndication is a group investment where multiple investors pool funds to acquire and manage larger real estate assets, such as apartment buildings, commercial properties, or multi-family developments. These deals are led by an experienced sponsor (like Fresh Coast Investments), who handles acquisitions, management, and execution of the investment strategy. Key Benefits of Private Real Estate Syndications 1. Passive Investment with Expert Management Unlike direct real estate ownership, syndications allow investors to reap the rewards of real estate without the burden of day-to-day management. Sponsors take care of property acquisition, renovations, tenant relations, and overall asset management, while investors enjoy passive income and long-term appreciation. 2. Access to Larger, More Profitable Deals Accredited investors in syndications gain access to institutional-quality real estate that would typically be out of reach for individual investors. Instead of buying a single rental property, syndications allow you to own a portion of a large, income-producing asset. 3. Consistent Cash Flow & Strong Returns Many syndications focus on cash-flowing assets , meaning investors receive regular distributions from rental income. Additionally, value-add strategies (such as property improvements) can lead to significant appreciation , increasing returns over time. 4. Tax Advantages Real estate syndications come with favorable tax benefits , including: ✔ Depreciation deductions to offset passive income ✔ Capital gains tax advantages when properties are sold ✔ Tax-deferred growth opportunities through reinvestment strategies 5. Portfolio Diversification & Risk Mitigation By investing in real estate syndications, accredited investors gain exposure to tangible assets with historically low correlation to stock market volatility . This diversification enhances portfolio stability and provides protection against market downturns.
