Income-Restricted Housing
What we do
Our company has been involved in the pre-construction and permitting of over 40 fully affordable housing projects and is currently developing more than five communities comprising over 250 new units.
Affordable housing plays a critical role in providing economic stability, reducing homelessness, and promoting health and well-being. It also often supports community development, fosters diversity and inclusion, enhances educational opportunities for children, and incorporates environmentally sustainable practices. In short, affordable housing forms a foundational element for building equitable and vibrant communities.
Moreover, with current high interest rates making construction loans increasingly difficult to obtain, our unique network allows us to acquire near-permit-ready projects from other developers and offer them to our clients. This approach not only eliminates permitting risk but also significantly shortens project timelines to just 2 to 2.5 years.
Benefits of Affordable Housing Development
Significantly Reduced Permitting Timeline
For typical condominium projects, the permitting process usually takes over 18 months, but with our approach, it can be secured in approximately 8 to 10 months.
Preferential Loan Interest Rates
Because these projects are part of a broader community initiative, financing through construction loans is possible. This significantly reduces the capital burden for investors.
Over 500,000 People on the Waiting List in Los Angeles
The RHNA (Regional Housing Needs Assessment) is a mandatory California process aimed at planning sufficient housing for community members across all income levels. The City of Los Angeles must plan for approximately 456,643 new housing units—about five times the 83,865 units produced between 2010 and 2019—to meet this requirement.
Capital Gains Can Be Tax-Free When Combined with Opportunity Zones
By developing in a designated Opportunity Zone in Los Angeles and holding the property for 10 years after construction, capital gains can be tax-free.
Los Angeles Hotel Development
What we do
Hotel development in Los Angeles typically requires a very long timeline.
From land acquisition to permitting takes 18–24 months, construction 24–36 months, and stabilization 24 months, totaling 66–84 months from acquisition to completion.
However, our team leverages a unique network to acquire near-permit-ready projects behind the scenes and offer them to our clients. This allows investors to develop hotels in Los Angeles without taking on the high permitting risks typically associated with such projects.
Benefits of Los Angeles Hotel Development
Massive Tourism Demand
In 2024, approximately 49.1 million people are expected to visit Los Angeles, representing a 97% recovery compared to pre-pandemic levels in 2019.
Supply and Demand Balance
Average hotel occupancy: 70–75%. The market is dominated by luxury and upscale hotels, creating a shortage of high-end accommodations.
Diverse Location Needs
Hotels can be developed to suit various locations—tourist areas like Hollywood and Santa Monica, commercial districts such as Downtown, and airport vicinities—allowing for different types of properties, including luxury, business, and boutique hotels.
Stability of Asset Value
With population growth and sustained tourism demand, real estate values are on the rise. Hotel development provides stable mid- to long-term income and can also serve as an effective strategy for estate tax planning.
Increased Demand from International Events
Major international events are scheduled in the coming years, including the FIFA World Cup (2026), NBA All-Star Game (2026), Super Bowl (2027), and the Los Angeles Olympics (2028). These events are expected to boost hotel occupancy rates and average daily rates (ADR).
Distressed Property Opportunities
What we do
Through its unique network, MDNI GROUP can access a wide range of opportunities.
Investing in distressed assets targets development projects or existing properties facing financial difficulties. This strategy has the potential to generate highly attractive returns in a relatively short period. By leveraging structure, strategy, and timing, assets that have been mispriced due to market distortions can be revitalized, restoring their intrinsic value—and sometimes generating even greater profits. This ability to unlock hidden value is the key appeal of distressed asset investments.
Benefits of Distressed Asset Investments
Acquisition at a Discount
Properties in financial distress—such as development projects, hotels, or residences on the brink of bankruptcy—are often valued well below market prices, creating opportunities to capitalize on the gap between current and intrinsic value.
Example: Revitalizing a struggling hotel or residence and selling it at regular market prices can generate substantial profits.
Potential for High Returns
Successful redevelopment or asset repurposing can yield multiple times the initial investment. In fact, over the past 24 years, the Distressed Securities Index has grown at roughly twice the rate of global equities.
Leveraging Market Inefficiencies
Assets that are undervalued due to fear or uncertainty can be acquired at fair value through expert analysis. With fewer competitors—since typical investors are hesitant to enter—unique strategies are more likely to succeed.
Portfolio Diversification
Because distressed assets have risk-return characteristics different from typical stocks and bonds, they can provide effective portfolio diversification.
