$1,235,000 Raised

Overview:

VOF’s sponsor, Spark Invests, LLC (“Spark” or the “Sponsor”), is the capital formation and financing division of Vita Investment Holdings, LLC (“Vita”), an investment company focused primarily on the acquisition and development of real estate properties and brands. The Vita team and its principals have extensive experience in real estate development. The executive team has built more than 60 ground-up developments and taken two companies public via an Initial Public Offering, one of which was sold for ~$1 billion to Welltower (NYSE: WELL).  Spark shall have the right and the responsibility to appoint and supervise the Manager and to manage VOF and its investments and business.

The VOF strategy is to invest or co-invest in Sponsor-led opportunistic developments and acquisitions focusing on, but not limited to, senior living facilities, apartments, industrial facilities, and storage facilities identified by the Vita management team.

Unit Price

VOF is offering and selling up to a maximum of $10,000,000 (the “Units”). The minimum investment is Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000); however, VOF reserves the right to waive the minimum investment amount, or to allocate to any prospective investor a subscription amount less than the minimum investment.

Why Invest with Vita?

The Spark team will continue to assess and identify opportunistic investments throughout the life of VOF. One area of significant opportunity targeted by the Spark team is residential, non-medical senior living properties for middle-income seniors, primarily through the Vita and Vita Lifestyle brand. Middle income seniors make up approximately 60% of all seniors. This middle market is seeing incredibly strong demand, as the middle market has been consistently overlooked by the senior living industry.

As it stands, the senior living industry has focused on two distinct groups: the top income bracket and the lower income bracket. The Vita brands, on the other hand, target the “Hilton Garden Inn” or “Courtyard by Marriot” demographic, a middle market product that draws primarily on the middle market, but also includes individuals from higher and lower income demographics.

Consumers receive a beautiful facility with affordable rates, which also leads to higher occupancies and increased profitability for the owners. As VOF will participate alongside Vita in ownership of these facilities, the Spark team forecasts strong potential returns further described below.

Another area of investment opportunity is in the storage and industrial space with the emergence of the small bay, light industrial product type. These properties fill the underserved space between self-storage units, which are not suitable for commercial use, and larger industrial buildings, which are often too large, inflexible and expensive for businesses needing 600 to 2,000 square feet of space. Typical tenant types for light industrial properties include small logistics companies, distributors, light manufacturers, contractors, trade- and services-based businesses, landscapers, etc.

Small bay industrial properties offer a unique value proposition for investors. Unlike larger single-tenant warehouses, which have been the domain of institutional investors and carry a binary risk/reward ratio, small bay assets provide a diversified tenant mix and cater to a wide variety of businesses. This universal appeal makes them more resilient to market fluctuations and economic shifts.

One of the key advantages of small bay assets is their built-in inflation protection. With shorter lease structures and higher tenant demand, these properties allow investors to adjust rental rates more frequently in response to market conditions. This flexibility is particularly appealing in the current economic climate, where inflation concerns are top of mind for many investors.

Paul Ezekiel Turner

Chief Executive Officer

Zeke Turner is the Founder and CEO of Vita, which works to design and develop more affordable housing and care options for America’s aging population, with a primary focus on those in middle-income to fixed-income segments of the population. As CEO, he is responsible for the overall strategic direction and leadership of the company. Zeke has established multiple businesses focused on bringing innovation and change to stagnant industries. In 20+ years of experience, he has launched two public companies, served on multiple company boards, and led work in development, operations, and management in a diverse set of industries, such as seniors housing and care, multifamily housing, student housing, and commercial office space.
At age 25, in 2002, he left a job on Wall Street to form a real estate development company. Over the next 16 years, that company became one of the nation’s premier developers of post-acute healthcare properties — focused on short-stay, rehabilitation, and therapy transitions from hospital to home — with more than 50 completed developments across the U.S. In 2012, Zeke founded HealthLease Properties REIT (HLP) and took it public on the Toronto Stock Exchange in a $121MM IPO. Zeke served as the chairman and CEO of HealthLease. Two years later, in November of 2014, a deal was reached with Welltower (NYSE: HCN), which, in part, included HCN acquiring HLP and its portfolio of more than 50 properties. Zeke then commenced new ventures, including a student housing business and investments in building product companies. In 2016, Zeke led the effort to take another real estate investment company public, later spun-off as a standalone company and now operating under the name Invesque (TSX: IVQ). Zeke has also been a public speaker and been interviewed by media outlets such as Bloomberg TV, CNBC, Fox Business, and the Wall Street Journal. He’s received numerous local and national awards, including being a 2015 Entrepreneur of the Year National Finalist by Ernst & Young and membership to Real Estate Forum’s “50 under 40” class in 2014. Zeke holds two degrees from Taylor University in International Business and Business Administration/Systems and competed on their basketball and football teams (Go, Trojans!).
