Strategic Capital for Purpose-Driven Development
Latitude 98 seeks relationships with qualified investors, joint-venture partners, lenders and capital providers who understand real estate development, construction, rehabilitation and long-term asset ownership.
Our focus is on building project-specific relationships that support clearly defined real estate opportunities. These may include residential development, affordable and veteran housing, property acquisition and repositioning, resilient construction, airport facilities and other specialised projects throughout Central Florida.
This page describes the types of capital relationships Latitude 98 may consider. It is not an investment offering, a solicitation to purchase securities or a promise that any particular opportunity will be available.
A Project-Specific Partnership Approach
Every development has a different capital structure, timeline, risk profile and operating strategy.
Some projects require acquisition capital to secure a property. Others require equity for predevelopment, construction financing, long-term ownership capital or a combination of funding sources.
Latitude 98 evaluates potential capital relationships based on:
- The property and proposed use
- Development feasibility
- Project stage
- Total development cost
- Financing requirements
- Anticipated ownership structure
- Development timeline
- Partner objectives
- Risk allocation
- Long-term asset strategy
- Community and economic impact
- Alignment with Latitude 98’s development priorities
No single partnership structure is appropriate for every project. Relationships are considered individually and remain subject to due diligence, negotiation, legal review and final documentation.
Project-Level Equity
Latitude 98 may consider project-level equity relationships for qualified development and acquisition opportunities.
Project-level equity may support:
- Property acquisition
- Predevelopment expenses
- Design and engineering
- Entitlement and permitting costs
- Construction equity requirements
- Property rehabilitation
- Infrastructure improvements
- Lease-up or stabilisation
- Long-term ownership
The structure of any equity relationship would depend on the specific project, capital requirements, ownership plan and negotiated responsibilities of the parties.
Latitude 98 does not publicly promise returns, distributions, investment terms or participation in any particular project.
Joint Ventures
A joint venture may be considered when two or more parties bring complementary resources to a development opportunity.
A potential joint-venture partner may contribute:
- Capital
- Land or an existing property
- Development experience
- Construction expertise
- Industry relationships
- Public-sector access
- Specialised operational knowledge
- Long-term ownership capability
- Project-specific resources
Latitude 98 may contribute development planning, feasibility analysis, acquisition coordination, design management, entitlement oversight, permitting, construction coordination or overall development management.
Any joint venture would require clearly defined roles, decision-making authority, ownership interests, funding obligations, risk allocation and exit or long-term ownership provisions.
Acquisition Capital
Acquisition capital may be required to secure land, residential properties, distressed assets, aviation real estate or other development opportunities.
Latitude 98 may seek capital relationships involving:
- Vacant land acquisition
- Infill development sites
- Single-family properties
- Duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes
- Small multifamily assets
- Distressed or underused properties
- Unfinished developments
- Airport and aviation properties
- Special-use real estate
- Property assemblages
- Value-add acquisitions
Acquisition opportunities are evaluated based on title, zoning, physical condition, development potential, market conditions, required improvements and the anticipated project strategy.
Construction Financing
Latitude 98 works with capital providers and lenders capable of supporting ground-up construction, rehabilitation and specialised development.
Potential financing needs may include:
- Site development
- Horizontal improvements
- Ground-up residential construction
- Small multifamily construction
- Build-to-rent development
- Affordable housing
- Veteran housing
- Hurricane Homes
- Major property rehabilitation
- Hangars and aviation facilities
- Airport improvements
- Special-use construction
Construction financing requirements vary significantly by project. Any proposed financing relationship would be supported by project-specific information such as plans, budgets, schedules, approvals, contractor information and development assumptions.
Long-Term Ownership Partnerships
Certain projects may be developed for leasing, stabilisation and long-term ownership rather than immediate sale.
Latitude 98 may consider long-term ownership relationships involving:
- Build-to-rent homes
- Small residential communities
- Duplex, triplex and fourplex properties
- Affordable rental housing
- Workforce and attainable housing
- Veteran housing
- Stabilised value-add assets
- Aviation facilities
- Speciality real estate
Long-term partnerships may require capital for acquisition, construction, lease-up, refinancing, property operations and future improvements.
The ownership and management structure would depend on the type of asset, anticipated holding period and responsibilities of each party.
Mission-Driven Housing Capital
Latitude 98 is interested in capital relationships that support housing with a defined community purpose.
Potential areas include:
- Affordable housing
- Veteran housing
- Workforce and attainable housing
- Accessible residential development
- Ageing-in-place housing
- Scattered-site construction
- Rehabilitation programs
- Resilient replacement housing
- Mixed-income housing
- Public-private housing initiatives
Mission-driven housing may involve conventional capital, public funding, nonprofit participation, municipal support, housing authorities or other specialised sources.
Latitude 98’s role is focused on real estate development, construction coordination and project execution. Supportive services, healthcare, case management and similar programs should be provided by qualified organisations when those services form part of a housing project.
Specialty-Project Capital
Specialised development frequently requires capital partners who understand assets outside conventional residential real estate.
Latitude 98 may consider speciality-project capital for:
- Airport acquisitions
- Aviation communities
- Aircraft hangars
- Hangar condominiums
- FBO facilities
- Aircraft maintenance facilities
- Flight-school facilities
- Runway and taxiway improvements
- Fuel facilities
- Aviation commercial space
- Emergency-resilience facilities
- Adaptive-reuse projects
- Other special-use real estate
These projects may involve unusual entitlement, infrastructure, operational or financing considerations. Capital partners should be prepared to evaluate the project based on its specific use, market and development plan.
Potential Relationship Structures
Depending on the project, Latitude 98 may consider relationships involving:
- Project-level equity
- Joint-venture ownership
- Acquisition financing
- Construction lending
- Bridge financing
- Preferred equity
- Long-term ownership capital
- Land contributions
- Seller financing
- Public-private capital
- Nonprofit and mission-aligned capital
These are examples of arrangements that may be considered. Latitude 98 does not represent that every structure will be available, appropriate or accepted for every opportunity.
