Treetop Associated Group (TAG) is seeking financing for acquisition and development of 147 homesites. The land will cost $1.5 million, and TAG estimates direct development costs to be an additional $2.7 million. City Federal Bank will make a loan covering 40 percent of the land acquisition cost, 100 percent of direct improvement cost, and interest carry at 11 percent interest with a 3 percent loan origination fee. TAG has decided to split the development into two parcel types, standard and deluxe, with the standard parcels comprising 87 of the 147 total homesites. Also, TAG thinks that the deluxe sites will be priced at a $2,000 premium over the standard parcel price of $36,000. The total project revenue will be $5,412,000.
