The GSH Group (“The Sponsor") is a real estate investment company focused on class B/workforce housing across the United States. The leadership team has over 40 years of combined experience and the company has over $1 billion assets under management(1), made up of 8,333 multifamily units(2), inclusive of partner legacy assets.
With demonstrated experience as advisors, managers, and resolving problem loans, GSH is attuned to the needs and processing of Special Servicers for the quick disposition of assets. The Sponsor employs a tactical strategy for value creation. Value enhancement is approached from multiple angles and scenarios. These include, but are not limited to, organic rental growth due to market inefficiencies, rent premiums generated through unit upgrades, and decreasing expenses through management efficiencies.
GSH uses applicable, real-time software to help manage all assets on a minute-by-minute basis. Using real-time data, they can effectively keep all projects on track to ensure the business plan's proper implementation. Additionally, GSH is vertically integrated, employing an affiliated general contractor and construction team to ensure projects stay on budget and on time.
(1) Portfolio value includes an assumed value based on current T1/T12 financials and a capitalization rate of 5.00%. This includes certain legacy properties owned and managed by partners.
(2) Units include legacy units owned by the partners as well as units sold.

The Meadows at Canton is a 736-unit apartment community built from 1968-1972 (and renovated in 2019-2020) located on the west side of Canton, MI. The Property is currently 90% occupied and sits on Honeytree Boulevard, just east of I-275. Canton, Michigan is an affluent suburb with the third highest-rated public school system in Wayne County. The Property's location offers easy access to major regional employers and Ford Road, the region’s major retail corridor. The GSH Group believes the neighborhood is expected to see growth in population and economic development based on a 5.8% population increase over the past decade. With that, they believe the Property will have strong demand and organic rent growth, which will allow the Property to increase revenue and eliminate high concessions left by the current ownership.

RM Securities, LLC, its registered representatives, affiliates, associated persons, and personnel of its affiliates who may also be associated with it, including our associated persons and personnel of our affiliates who are also be associated with RM Securities, LLC (it (“RM Securities,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) will receive fees, expense reimbursements, and other compensation (“Fees”) from the issuer of this investment offering, its sponsor, or an affiliate thereof (“Sponsor”), or otherwise in connection with Sponsor’s offering. The Fees paid to us are in addition to other fees you will pay to Sponsor or in connection with Sponsor’s investment offering. You will pay Fees to Sponsor, either directly or indirectly as an investor in the Sponsor’s offering. Sponsor will use the Fees you pay, as well as funds you invest in the relevant offering, to compensate us. The Fees paid to us will directly or indirectly be borne by you as the investor (typically, but not always, in the form of an expense of the Sponsor’s offering in which you invest) because such Fees will reduce the proceeds available for distribution to you and reduce the amount you earn over time.
For more information on the Fees paid to us, or any other Fees you will pay in connection with Sponsor’s offering, please carefully review the Sponsor’s Investment Documents. Please also carefully review RM Securities’ Form CRS, Regulation Best Interest Disclosures, and Limited Brokerage Services Agreement.

The Investment Documents linked on this page have been prepared and posted by Sponsor, and not by RM Securities. We did not assist in preparing, do not adopt or endorse, and we are not otherwise responsible for, the Sponsor’s Investment Documents. We make no representations or warranties as to the accuracy of information on this Page or in the Sponsor’s Investment Documents and we accept no liability therefor. No part of the information on this Page or in the Sponsor’s Investment Documents is intended to be binding on us.
Sponsor’s Information Qualified by Investment DocumentsThe information on this Page is qualified in its entirety by reference to the more complete information about the offering contained in the Sponsor’s Investment Documents. The information on this Page is not complete and subject to change at the Sponsor’s discretion at any time up to the closing date. The Sponsor’s Investment Documents and supplements thereto contain important information about the Sponsor’s offering including relevant investment objectives, the business plan, risks, charges, expenses, and other information, which you should consider carefully before investing. The information on this Page should not be used as a basis for an investor’s decision to invest.
Risk of InvestmentThis investment is speculative, highly illiquid, and involves substantial risk. There can be no assurances that all or any of Sponsor’s assumptions, expectations, estimates, goals, hypothetical illustrations, or other aspects of Sponsor’s business plans (“Assumptions”) will be true or that actual performance will bear any relation to Sponsor’s Assumptions, and no guarantee or representation is made that Sponsor’s Assumptions will be achieved. If Sponsor does not achieve its Assumptions, your investment could be materially and adversely affected. A loss of part or all of the principal value of your investment may occur. You should not invest unless you can readily bear the consequences of such loss. Sponsor’s Assumptions should not be relied upon as the primary basis for your decision to invest.
No Reliance on Forward-Looking Statements; Sponsor AssumptionsSponsor is solely responsible for statements made concerning forward-looking statements and Assumptions, which apply only as of the date made, are preliminary and subject to change, and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the disclosures and cautionary statements included in Sponsor’s Investment Documents, which you should carefully review. Neither RM Securities nor Sponsor are obligated to update or revise such forward-looking statements or Assumptions to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Sponsor’s forward-looking statements and Assumptions are hypothetical, not based on actual investment achievements or events, and are presented solely for purposes of providing insight into the Sponsor’s investment objectives, detailing Sponsor’s anticipated risk and reward characteristics, and establishing a benchmark for future evaluation of actual results; therefore, they are not a predictor, projection, or guarantee of future results. You should not rely on Sponsor’s forward-looking statements as a basis to invest.
Importantly, we do not adopt, endorse, or provide any assurance of returns or as to the accuracy or reasonableness of Sponsor’s Assumptions or forward-looking statements.
No Reliance on Past PerformanceAny description of past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance and should not be relied upon as the primary basis to invest.
Sponsor’s Use of DebtA substantial portion of the total cost of the real estate asset acquired by the Sponsor with investor funds (“Property”) will be paid with borrowed funds, i.e., debt. Sponsor’s estimated rates and terms of the debt financing are subject to lender approval, and there is no assurance that the Sponsor will secure debt at the rates and terms presented on this Page or in the Sponsor’s Investment Documents, or at all. The use of borrowed money to acquire real estate is referred to as leveraging, which can amplify losses and could result in lender foreclosure. In addition, if the debt includes a variable (or “floating”) interest rate, the total amount of interest paid over the term of the debt will fluctuate and can increase. As a result, Sponsor’s use of debt can result in a loss of some or all of your investment.
Sponsor’s Offering is Not RegisteredSponsor’s securities offering will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance upon the exemptions from registration pursuant to Rule 506(c) of Regulation D as promulgated under the Securities Act (“Private Placement”).
