The Hortense VI
10742 Hortense St · Sold · $4.20M · 2024 – 2025
The Investment
The multifamily build that proved the sale exit — then rolled forward tax-deferred.
A ground-up six-unit multifamily building in North Hollywood, and the counterpoint to the three retained assets: this one was underwritten with a sale exit and executed on it.
The building was completed and sold in October 2025 for $4.20M against $3.00M of total project cost. Sponsor equity of $544,340 returned $1,006,430 — a 1.85x multiple and roughly 42% XIRR over a 21-month equity hold, computed on dated cash flows.
The disposition proceeds were exchanged under Section 1031 into 1949 17th St in Santa Monica, deferring the gain and rolling the capital forward into the next project rather than paying it out to tax. That exchange was a sponsor-owned transaction and should not be assumed to apply to any Assemble Capital investment.
