-

Miami, Florida , construction and repositioning of TheHamilton is now complete. Demand for rental housing inSoutheast Florida remains robust, especially for unique waterfront properties.

In
Bethesda, Maryland , construction is progressing on plan at the first phase of Strathmore Square, which will contain 220 highly tailored apartment homes when complete in 2025. This suburban infill project is located adjacent to the Grosvenor-Strathmore Metro station and the Strathmore Performing Arts Campus, and is 1.5 miles from The National Institutes of Health main campus. Funding for the project is fully secured with Aimco having a remaining equity commitment, as of April 30, 2023, of$164.0 million .$7.4 million -
In upper northwest
Washington D.C. , construction at Upton Place continues on schedule and on budget. Aimco plans to start pre-leasing Upton’s 689 apartment homes during the summer of 2023 in anticipation of initial delivery in the fourth quarter of 2023. To date,80% of the project's 105K square feet of retail space has been leased and Aimco has received letters of intent from retailers on another16% . -

In the first quarter 2023, Aimco invested
into future development pipeline projects located in$5.7 million Southeast Florida , theWashington D.C. Metro, and Colorado’s Front Range. Programming, design, documentation and entitlement efforts continue with projected unit counts and rentable square footage on track to meet or exceed initial projections. Aimco has received Urban Development Review Board approvals related to its 34th Street and Biscayne Boulevard properties in Miami’sEdgewater neighborhood, conditional approvals on its Broward Boulevard sites inFort Lauderdale , and earlier this month submitted a major amendment to the existing approval for the first phase of development at its site in Fort Lauderdale’sFlagler Village neighborhood. As part of Aimco's capital allocation strategy, it may choose to monetize certain pipeline assets prior to vertical construction in an effort to maximize value add and risk adjusted returns.
Alternative Investments
Aimco’s current alternative investments are primarily those investments originated prior to the separation from AIR Communities and include a mezzanine loan secured by a stabilized multifamily property with an option to participate in future multifamily development, as well as three passive equity investments. Over time, we plan to significantly reduce capital allocated to these investments. Updates include:
-
In February 2023, Aimco entered into an agreement to sell the Parkmerced mezzanine loan for
. The initial$167.5 million deposit received by the purchaser became nonrefundable in April 2023 when various conditions, including transfer consents, were cleared. The sale is scheduled to close in the second quarter of 2023. Together with the monetization of the$5 million notional swaption, purchased in conjunction with the mezzanine loan investment to protect against future interest rate increases, Aimco expects gross proceeds from these transactions to be approximately$1.5 billion .$220 million
Investment Activity
Aimco is focused on growing the business, and delivering strong investment returns, through development and redevelopment activities, funded primarily through third-party capital. Updates include:
-
In February 2023, Aimco entered into an option agreement with the Fitzsimons Redevelopment Authority. If exercised, the option allows for the long-term lease of 4.8 acres of land located on the Anschutz Medical Campus in
Aurora, Colorado that can accommodate approximately 850K square feet of commercial life science development built out over multiple phases. The option's annual cost is approximately .$0.5 million

Forward-Looking Statements
This document contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical statements of fact and those regarding our intent, belief, or expectations, including, but not limited to, the statements in this document regarding our future plans and goals, including our pipeline investments and projects, our plans to eliminate certain near term debt maturities, our estimated value creation and potential, our timing, scheduling and budgeting, projections regarding lease growth, our plans to form joint ventures, our plans for new acquisitions or dispositions, our strategic partnerships and value added therefrom, and changes to our corporate governance. We caution investors not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements.
Words such as “anticipate(s),” “expect(s),” “intend(s),” “plan(s),” “believe(s),” “may,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “seek(s)” and similar expressions, or the negative of these terms, are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, conditions or results, and involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside the control of Aimco that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statement. Important factors, among others, that may affect actual results or outcomes include, but are not limited to: (i) the risk that the 2023 plans and goals may not be completed, as expected, in a timely manner or at all, (ii) the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the pipeline investments and projects, and (iii) changes in general economic conditions, including, increases in interest rates and other force-majeure events. Although we believe that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that our expectations will be attained.
Readers should carefully review Aimco’s financial statements and the notes thereto, as well as the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Aimco’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other documents Aimco files from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements.
