Where Purpose Builds Value
Sunchase Companies is currently raising for Ember Ridge, a multifamily acquisition in Pensacola, Florida. Limited equity remaining.
Ember Ridge is a multifamily community in Pensacola, Florida, located near Corry Station and NAS Pensacola, one of the Gulf Coast’s most consistent demand anchors. At 98% occupancy and under long-term historical ownership, this is a stable, well-operated asset that came in stronger than anticipated at every stage of due diligence.
Our team completed a full walk-through and inspection of every unit in the property. The results reinforced our conviction. Here is what the numbers show:
The asset is in better physical shape than our initial underwriting assumed. This is not a heavy renovation project. It is a stable, well-maintained community with clear operational upside that we can capture through disciplined management.
We underwrote $1,000 per unit annually. Current quotes are coming in at approximately $714 per unit, with potential for further improvement. That variance flows directly to investor returns.
We will be financing this project through a 5 year Fixed-rate Fannie Mae loan. In today’s rate environment, fixed rate financing at this level removes one of the most significant risk factors in multifamily investing and provides a stable foundation for the entire business plan.
As a direct result of these findings, projected investor returns have been revised upward from our original underwriting.
With 98% occupancy, below-budget insurance, conservative value-add execution, and fixed-rate debt locked, Ember Ridge represents one of the most sound investment opportunities we have brought to market.
2 for 2. Ahead of Schedule. Capital Returned.
Before committing to any operator, the question worth asking is simple: have they done what they said they would do?
At Bay Vista in Daphne, Alabama, we closed a cash-out refinance just 23 months into our business plan, returning approximately $800,000 to investors while maintaining their full ownership stake. An investor who contributed $250,000 received roughly $66,000 in that distribution with their equity position unchanged. Our all-in basis was $7.5M. The asset appraised at $9.5M, representing over $2 million in value created in under two years.
At Pensacola Apartments, our first syndication, we completed a cash-out refinance 18 months into the business plan and are delivering consistent quarterly distributions.
Two deals. Two business plans executed ahead of schedule. Capital returned to investors in both cases. In a market where many operators have struggled, our team has remained disciplined, focused on execution, conservative underwriting, and controlling what we can control.

A Disciplined Bet on the Right Market
The Gulf Coast is one of the most fundamentally sound and undersupplied multifamily markets in the country, with durable demand, a growing population, and limited institutional competition.
Gulf Coast multifamily serves a stable renter base: working families, essential workers, and community anchors who live and work locally. Proximity to major military installations like NAS Pensacola and Corry Station reinforces that stability with a renter population that is consistent, vetted, and long-tenured. Demand here is structural, not speculative.
Unlike overbuilt Sun Belt metros, Gulf Coast markets including Pensacola, Daphne, Gulf Breeze, and Fairhope have seen disciplined supply growth. Low new construction relative to demand supports strong occupancy and a favorable rent environment for well-located, well-operated assets.
Our returns are driven by what we can directly influence: buying at the right basis, improving operations, and managing expenses with discipline. We do not underwrite on cap rate compression or speculative rent growth. Every assumption we make is one we are prepared to defend.
Institutional capital has largely overlooked smaller Gulf Coast markets. That creates a pricing advantage for operators with local knowledge and deep relationships, and meaningful upside as institutional capital eventually discovers the region.

Actuals Over Proforma
We acquire and operate multifamily properties where we can create value through disciplined operations, not financial engineering or aggressive assumptions.
What We Buy
We acquire multifamily communities in Gulf Coast markets with strong area median incomes, stable occupancy, and a clear path to operational improvement. We do not overpay for optionality.
How We Create Value
Value is created through management discipline, targeted capital improvements, and expense control. Every return driver is something we can directly influence.
What We Protect
We stress-test every acquisition against realistic scenarios. We do not assume rent growth that has not materialized, and we maintain conservative exit assumptions on every deal we underwrite.
