San Jose Ranks Number One Again In Attracting Innovation<\/h1>\n

March 2, 2022 | Erik Hayden | Urban Catalyst<\/p>\n

It\u2019s official. Innovation is the key to post-pandemic economic success, and the U.S. is home to four of the five highest-ranked cities for attracting innovation-oriented industries.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sitting at the top of the list?\u00a0San Jose.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s according to a\u00a0new report from real estate services firm JLL. The research, part of JLL\u2019s\u00a0Innovation Geographies\u00a0study, states that \u201cinnovation industries including high-tech services, the life sciences and advanced manufacturing will play a critical role in the recovery\u201d post-pandemic. Cities that are home to these industries, and the ecosystems that support them, are best positioned for growth in the coming years.<\/p>\n

JLL looked at 100 cities around the world using selection criteria that included the presence of a major university, the availability of a critical mass of talent, and attractive lifestyle options. San Jose clearly checks all the boxes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In fact, San Jose has made a habit of being at or near the top of these \u201cbest of\u201d lists. In the past year alone, Bloomberg named San Jose the #1 region in the country poised for post-pandemic recovery, Moody\u2019s ranked the city in its top ten based on similar criteria, and CBRE named the San Jose metro area the number one market for office space development.<\/p>\n

The evidence on the ground confirms what these firms are saying: the world\u2019s leading technology companies continue to expand their presence here. That includes Google with a planned major mixed-use project near Diridon Station, and Apple, which is one of five companies that have secured the rights to build in north San Jose. And there are many more.<\/p>\n

To learn more about how you can invest in the future of one of the world\u2019s most innovative cities,\u00a0contact us today<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With respect to any performance levels outlined herein, these do not constitute a promise of performance, nor is there any assurance that the investment objectives of any program will be attained. All investments carry the risk of loss of some or all of the principal invested. Assumptions are more fully outlined in the Offering Documents\/ PPM for the respective offering. Consult the PPM for investment conditions, risk factors, minimum requirements, fees and expenses and other pertinent information with respect to any investment.<\/span><\/p>\n

These investment opportunities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and are being offered pursuant to an exemption therefrom and from applicable state securities laws. All offerings are intended only for accredited investors unless otherwise specified.<\/span><\/p>\n

Past performance are no guarantee of future results. All information is subject to change. You should always consult a tax professional prior to investing. Investment offerings and investment decisions may only be made on the basis of a confidential private placement memorandum issued by Issuer, or one of its partner\/issuers. Issuer does not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the information contained herein. Thank you for your cooperation.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nReal Estate Risk Disclosure:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

– There is no guarantee that any strategy will be successful or achieve investment objectives including, among other things, profits, distributions, tax benefits, exit strategy, etc.;<\/span>
\n– Potential for property value loss \u2013 All real estate investments have the potential to lose value during the life of the investments;<\/span>
\n– Change of tax status \u2013 The income stream and depreciation schedule for any investment property may affect the property owner\u2019s income bracket and\/or tax status. An unfavorable tax ruling may cancel deferral of capital gains and result in immediate tax liabilities;<\/span>
\n– Potential for foreclosure \u2013 All financed real estate investments have potential for foreclosure;<\/span>
\n– Illiquidity \u2013 These assets are commonly offered through private placement offerings and are illiquid securities. There is no secondary market for these investments.<\/span>
\n– Reduction or Elimination of Monthly Cash Flow Distributions \u2013 Like any investment in real estate, if a property unexpectedly loses tenants or sustains substantial damage, there is potential for suspension of cash flow distributions;<\/span>
\n– Impact of fees\/expenses \u2013 Costs associated with the transaction may impact investors\u2019 returns and may outweigh the tax benefits<\/span>
\n– Stated tax benefits \u2013 Any stated tax benefits are not guaranteed and are subject to changes in the tax code. Speak to your tax professional prior to investing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Opportunity Zone Disclosures<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

– Investing in opportunity zones is speculative. Opportunity zones are newly formed entities with no operating history. There is no assurance of investment return, property appreciation, or profits. The ability to resell the fund\u2019s underlying investment properties or businesses is not guaranteed. Investing in opportunity zone funds may involve a higher level of risk than investing in other established real estate offerings.<\/span>
\n– Long-term investment. Opportunity zone funds have illiquid underlying investments that may not be easy to sell and the return of capital and realization of gains, if any, from an investment will generally occur only upon the partial or complete disposition or refinancing of such investments.<\/span>
\n– Limited secondary market for redemption. Although secondary markets may provide a liquidity option in limited circumstances, the amount you will receive typically is discounted to current valuations.<\/span>
\n– Difficult valuation assessment. The portfolio holdings in opportunity zone funds may be difficult to value because financial markets or exchanges do not usually quote or trade the holdings. As such, market prices for most of a fund\u2019s holdings will not be readily available.<\/span>
\n– Capital call default consequences. Meeting capital calls to provide managers with the pledged capital is a contractual obligation of each investor. Failure to meet this requirement in a timely manner could elicit significant adverse consequences, including, without limitation, the forfeiture of your interest in the fund.<\/span>
\n– Opportunity zone funds may use leverage in connection with certain investments or participate in investments with highly leveraged capital structures. Leverage involves a high degree of financial risk and may increase the exposure of such investments to factors such as rising interest rates, downturns in the economy or deterioration in the condition of the assets underlying such investments.<\/span>
\n– Unregistered investment. As with other unregistered investments, the regulatory protections of the Investment Company Act of 1940 are not available with unregistered securities.<\/span>
\n– It is possible, due to tax, regulatory, or investment decisions, that a fund, or its investors, are unable realize any tax benefits. You should evaluate the merits of the underlying investment and not solely invest in an opportunity zone fund for any potential tax advantage.<\/span><\/p>\n
