Overview

CSRA Opportunity Zone Fund IX, LLC is a Capital Square-sponsored Qualified Opportunity Zone Fund developing a mixed-use community in the Scott's Addition neighborhood of Richmond, VA - 220 traditional apartments plus 100 furnished apartment-hotel rooms at 1600 Roseneath Road, with construction completion projected in Q2 2027. The fund raises up to $77,395,000 of equity ($1,000 per Investor Unit) alongside project-level construction financing. Investors receive an 11% preferred return on the first $15M of units sold (7% thereafter), followed by return of capital and an 80/20 split. The QOZ structure offers capital-gains deferral to 12/31/2026 (reduced via the fair-market-value provision while under construction) and tax-free appreciation after a 10-year hold. Accredited investors only (Rule 506(c)); $100,000 minimum.

Analysis

Insights

A ground-up multifamily/hotel OZ development from an established sponsor in one of Richmond's strongest submarkets, structured for the OZ "two bites at the apple" (FMV-reduced deferral now, tax-free appreciation after 10 years) plus an above-market preferred return. Return depends on executing development and stabilization.

Advantages

Institutional sponsor (Capital Square; $670M+ of OZ development underway) with vertically integrated CS Development; strong infill Richmond submarket; 11%/7% preferred return; full QOZ tax benefits plus the FMV deferral mark-down; lookback provision protecting return of capital.

Concerns

Ground-up development risk (construction cost/schedule, lease-up); no current cash flow during construction; project-level construction-loan leverage; single-asset/single-market concentration; illiquid, long (~10-yr) hold; OZ tax rules may change.
