LEGAL DESCRIPTION

CLIENT IDENTIFICATION

The client of this specific assignment is Ms. Ece Demirpence, CEO of Akfen Gayrimenkul Yatirim Ortakligi A.S.

INTENDED USE & INTENDED USERS

The intended use of the appraisal is to assist the client (intended user) in potentially bringing in a new partner (Global Platform) to develop the subject site.

PURPOSE

The purpose of this appraisal is to develop an opinion of the As-Is Market Value (Fee Simple Estate).

PERSONAL PROPERTY & BUSINESS INTANGIBLE

The subject is undeveloped land. There is no personal property (FF&E) included in this valuation.

APPRAISAL REPORT TYPE

This is an Appraisal Report described by the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) under Standards Rule 2-2(a).

APPRAISAL REQUIREMENTS

This appraisal and report are intended to conform to the requirements of the following:

  • Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP); and
  • Code of Professional Ethics and Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice of the Appraisal Institute

SALES HISTORY

The current owner of the subject is:

EOA Fountains, LLC 13553 Atlantic Boulevard, Suite 201 Jacksonville Florida 32225

According to public records,

EO At Fountains LLC purchased Parcel Number 026270-0015 from Fountains East Investments One, LLC in July 2022 for \$7,000,000 (26.78 PSF), which was recorded under Special Warranty Deed OR Book 5590, Page 1993. Additionally, EO At Fountains LLC purchased Parcel Number 026250-0043 from Madison Fountains Owner, LLC in August 2022 for \$356,800 (\$22.96 PSF), which was recorded under Special Warranty Deed OR Book 5633, Page 841. An appraisal was completed before the closing. These transactions are between related parties and are not considered arm's length as David Ergisi was the controlling member of both entities. Based on the fact that an appraisal was performed immediately before closing, the sales are assumed to be at market pricing, despite the related-party transaction.

Additionally, EO At Fountains LLC transferred the subject via a quit claim deed, which comprised Parcel Numbers: 026270-0015 & 026250-0043, to EOA Fountains, LLC in December 2022 for a recorded sale price of \$3,953,000. This was not an arm's-length market transaction.

We are not aware of any other sale transactions, transfers, listings, pending, or recent contracts for sale that occurred within the last three years. This is based on our interview with the client, and a search utilizing LoopNet, CoStar, public records, MLS, and various other sources.

PURPOSE OF APPRAISAL

The purpose of this appraisal is to develop an opinion of the market value of the subject property for internal decision-making.

DEFINITION OF MARKET VALUE

The most probable price which a property should bring in a competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller each acting prudently, knowledgeably, and assuming that the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:

    1. Buyer and seller are typically motivated;
    1. Both parties are well informed or well advised, and acting in what they consider their own best interests;
    1. A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market;
    1. Payment is made in terms of cash in United States dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; and
    1. The price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale.1

PROPERTY RIGHTS APPRAISED

The subject is currently vacant. Our opinion of the subject's market value represents a Fee Simple interest.

Fee Simple Interest

Absolute ownership unencumbered by any other interest or estate, subject only to the limitations imposed by the governmental powers of taxation, eminent domain, police power, and escheat.2

1 Office of Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), Title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulation, Part 34, Subpart C -Appraisals, 34.42 (g); Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS), 12 CFR 564.2 (g); This is also compatible with the FDIC, FRS and NCUA definitions of market value.

    1. The extent to which the subject property is inspected,
    1. The type and extent of data researched,

TAXES & ASSESSMENT

The subject's assessed values and property taxes for the current year are summarized in detail in the following table.

In Florida, commercial real estate is assessed at 100% of market value. In actual practice, assessments tend to range about 70% to 90% of market value to account for selling costs and to reduce the number of appeals. Based on the concluded opinion of market value contained within this report, the assessed value concluded by the St. Johns County Property Appraiser's Office of \$6,324,920 for the subject, which equates to \$22.83 PSF, is lower than our opinion of market value. It appears likely that the County did not fully consider the physical characteristics and development rights assigned to the subject site.

SAINT AUGUSTINE MULTI-FAMILY SUBMARKET

According to CoStar, vacancy has declined by roughly 300 basis points in the last 12 months as renter demand in Saint Augustine continues to concentrate here, even as 1,300 new apartments were completed in that time. This area currently has approximately 10% of all vacant apartments in the metro area at approximately 1,700 units, a number that is up about 5% in the past year. Renter demand improved significantly during 2023 over the previous year, with approximately 1,300 units absorbed in that time, and the forecast calls for an even stronger rate of demand in 2024 that should pull supply and demand more in balance by the end of the year. Elevated construction levels in Saint Augustine in the last few years have led to an inventory expansion here of nearly 50% since 2022. The area has only approximately 7% of the wider market's total inventory, yet it has more than 25% of all new apartment units currently under construction and has comprised more than 20% of all renter demand in the broader Jacksonville market in the last year. Also, roughly 25% of all units in the

market were completed in the last year, and the 1,600 new units underway are set to expand inventory here by another 19.8%. Asking rents in Saint Augustine now average \$1,750/month and rank as the highest in the broader Jacksonville market. Actual rent growth, however, has slowed significantly from the record high of 14.4% reached in 21Q4 and is now down markedly to a pace of -6.0% in year-over-year growth, the slowest in the Jacksonville area. The pace of rent growth is expected to remain under pressure for several more quarters as vacancy remains elevated and new units continue to deliver, although there is good potential for it to return to a range between 2% and 3% in the second half of 2025.

According to CoStar, having one of the smaller apartment inventories in the broader Jacksonville market, investment activity in Saint Augustine is infrequent. Before 23Q4, the last quarter when any notable activity took place was the final quarter of 2021; however, the trailing 12-month volume is comprised of only \$126 million following 5 separate transactions that closed in the past year. Many properties in this market have been recently delivered and are still working toward achieving stabilized occupancy, but as they do and the investment climate improves, there will be a greater chance for investment activity in the quarters ahead. While three of the past year's sales have been fairly insignificant, two prominent properties have traded in the last year. The 210-unit, 3-Star Camellia at World Commerce Center in the World Golf Village area was acquired in December by Lakewood, NJ-based private REIT Lightstone Value Plus REIT V, Inc. for \$53.3 million (\$253,800/unit) as part of a 1031 exchange. The seller was Jacksonville-based private developer Corner Lot Development, which wrapped up construction on the property in November 2022. The property was fully occupied at the time of the sale. More notably, Norfolk, VA-based Harbor Group International made a significant acquisition in May 2024 when it acquired the recently built, 350-unit Ascend Durbin Creek. The property was acquired from developer D.R. Horton for \$70.2 million (\$201/SF) and has been renamed Aria Durban Creek. A fast pace of leasing had it occupied at approximately 87% by the time of the sale.

ST. JOHNS COUNTY RETAIL SUBMARKET

CoStar indicates that the St Johns County retail submarket has a vacancy rate of 2.3%. This vacancy rate is 1.1% lower than it was this time last year. There have been 470,000 SF of positive absorption and 340,000 SF of net deliveries. Rents have increased 5.3% in the past 12 months and are currently around \$28.00/SF. Roughly 460,000 SF is under construction in the St Johns County retail submarket. The vacancy is 2.0% in general retail buildings, and 390,000 SF has been absorbed in this asset class over the past year. The vacancy is 1.3% in power centers, and 5,500 SF has been absorbed in this asset class over the past year. The vacancy is 3.4% in neighborhood centers, and 32,000 SF has been absorbed in this asset class over the past year. No vacancies were reported in other retail buildings, and absorption has been flat in this asset class over the past year. The current vacancy is lower than its trailing three-year average of 2.7%, which is also lower than the Jacksonville market's trailing three-year average of 4.2%. Rents have increased 23.3% over the past three years. Meanwhile, average rents increased 23.8% in the wider Jacksonville market. There have been 197 sales over the past three years, amounting to \$432 million in volume and 1.5 million SF of inventory. CoStar's estimated cap rate for St Johns County has averaged 6.5% over the past three years, which is higher than the current estimated cap rate of 6.4%. The total St Johns County retail submarket comprises 13.2 million SF of inventory. There have been 49 sales in the St Johns County retail submarket over the past year, amounting to \$104 million of volume and 340,000 SF of stock. These sales have averaged \$300/SF, matching the estimated price per unit for the submarket as a whole. During this time, trailing one-year price per SF averages were as high as \$405/SF and as low as \$300/SF. Over the past three years, St Johns County has averaged 67 sales per year, \$136 million of volume per year, and 510,000 SF of stock per year. Of the sales in the past 12 months, 40 were of general retail. Strip centers were traded 2 times. Neighborhood centers were sold 8 times. The submarket's current transaction cap rate stands at 6.0%, below the Jacksonville market average of 6.6%. Over the past three years, transaction cap rates have averaged 5.9%. Within St Johns County, general retail has a market cap rate of 6.3%, power centers have a market cap rate of 6.7%, strip centers have a market cap rate of 6.3% and neighborhood

HIGHEST & BEST USE

Definition

The 7th Edition of The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, (Chicago: Appraisal Institute, 2022), defines highest and best use as:

"The reasonably probable use of property that results in the highest value. The four criteria that the highest and best use must meet are legal permissibility, physical possibility, financial feasibility, and maximum productivity."

  • Legal Permissibility: "a property use that is either currently allowed or most probably allowable under zoning codes, building codes, environmental regulations, and other applicable laws and regulations that govern land use."
  • Physical Possibility: "the parcel of land must be able to accommodate the construction of any building that would be a candidate for the ideal improvement."
  • Financial Feasibility: "the capability of a physically possible and legal use of property to produce a positive return to the land after considering risk and all costs to create and maintain the use."
  • Maximally Productive Use: "a specific land use must yield the highest value of all the physically possible, legally permissible, and financially feasible possible uses."

These tests are performed sequentially, as it is irrelevant if a certain use is financially feasible when not physically possible or legally permissible. When identifying the highest and best use of an improved property these tests are performed first on the property under the hypothetical assumption it is vacant. If the highest and best use is to improve the property, then the ideal improvement is determined using these same four criteria. Then, the subject improvements are compared to the ideal improvement. A determination is then made on whether to maintain the existing improvement in its existing use or modify the improvement to conform more to the ideal.

HIGHEST AND BEST USE "AS VACANT"

LEGALLY PERMISSIBLE

The subject is zoned PUD (Planned Unit Development) with development rights of 174 multi-family units and 50,000 square feet of retail. The only legally permissible uses are those outlined within the Fountains PUD.

PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE

The physically possible uses for the subject are limited to the legally permissible uses, current zoning, and land use of the site mandates. Besides site size, the physical characteristics of the site do not appear to impose any unusual restrictions on development. Overall, the physical characteristics of the site and the availability of utilities result in functional utility suitable for any of the legally permissible uses.

Based on the comparable developments in the market and conversation with both Mr. David Ergisi and Mr. Doug Smith, Chief Operating Officer, approximately 3.49 acres of the subject is allocated for 174 multi-family units (50 units per acre), and the remaining 2.87 acres is allocated for 50,000 SF of retail (FAR 40%). No subjectspecific engineering documents were provided for review; however, the intensity of the planned development is reflective of other projects within the Jacksonville MSA. Therefore, the planned development is considered to be physically possible.

FINANCIALLY FEASIBLE

Financially feasible uses for the subject parcel are governed by legally permissible uses and the physically possible uses for that site. Also, the influence of the surrounding market area considering commercial and residential uses and the economic and demographical growth within the market area and its effect on the subject must be considered. The primary determinant of financial feasibility is if a specific use is likely to produce a higher income level than the combined need to satisfy operating expenses, financial expenses, and capital amortization.

Based on our analysis of the market, there is currently adequate demand for multi-family and retail use in the subject's area. It appears that the development of these uses would have a value commensurate with its cost. Therefore, multi-family and retail use is considered financially feasible.

MAXIMALLY PRODUCTIVE

Maximally productive uses are governed by the subject's legally permissible, physically possible, and financially feasible uses. The final criterion addresses the question of maximum productivity of the subject development, which would require consideration of alternate potential uses.

There appears to be no reasonably probable use of the site that would generate a higher residual land value than multi-family and retail use. Accordingly, it is our opinion that these uses, developed to the normal market density level permitted by zoning, are the maximally productive use of the property.

Considering the legally permissible, physically possible, financially feasible, and maximally productive uses, the highest and best use of the subject "as is / vacant" is for multi-family and retail development.

MOST PROBABLE BUYER/USER

Considering the size and design characteristics of the property, the likely buyer is a multi-family and retail investor/developer.

VALUATION METHODS

Three basic approaches may be applicable and utilized, then reconciled to arrive at an estimate of market value. An approach to value is included or eliminated based on its applicability to the property type being valued and the information available. The reliability of each approach depends on the availability and comparability of market data, as well as the motivation and thinking of purchasers. Applicable approaches and whether they were utilized are summarized below.

The Cost Approach is based upon the principle of substitution, which states a prudent purchaser would not pay more for a property than the amount required to purchase a similar site and construct similar improvements without undue delay, producing property of equal desirability and utility. This approach is particularly applicable when the appraised improvements are relatively new or proposed or when the improvements are so specialized; that there is little or no sales data from comparable properties.

The Sales Comparison Approach involves the direct comparison of sales and listings of similar properties, adjusting for differences between the subject property and the comparable properties. This method can be useful for valuing general-purpose properties or vacant land. For improved properties, it is particularly applicable when there is an active sales market for the property type being appraised – either by owner-users or investors.

In the Income Capitalization Approach, the income-producing capacity of a property is estimated using contract rents on existing leases and estimating market rent from the rental activity at competing properties for the vacant space. Deductions are then made for vacancy and collection loss, and operating expenses. The resulting net operating income is divided by an overall capitalization rate to derive an opinion of value for the subject property. The capitalization rate represents the relationship between net operating income and value. This method is referred to as Direct Capitalization.

The appraisal process concludes with the Final Reconciliation of the values derived from the approaches applied for a single estimate of market value. Different properties require different means of analysis and lend themselves to one approach over the others.

The subject property is vacant land; therefore, the Cost and Income Approaches were not considered applicable. The Sales Comparison Approach was fully utilized for our analysis.

SITE VALUATION-MULTI-FAMILY LAND

INTRODUCTION

This section values the subject site by comparing it with substitute land sales or listings within the local market area or in competitive areas throughout the region. Land value is influenced by several factors; most notably development and use potential. These factors, as well as others, are factored in the following analysis.

Based on the comparable developments in the market and a conversation with both Mr. David Ergisi and Mr. Doug Smith, Chief Operating Officer, approximately 3.49 acres of the subject (6.36 acres) is allocated for 174 multi-family residential units (50 units per acre).

UNIT OF COMPARISON

The most relevant unit of comparison for competing land is the \$/allowed multi-family residential unit. All of the comparable sales presented in this section were reported on this basis.

ADJUSTMENTS

Adjustments to comparable sales were considered and made when warranted for expenditures after purchase, property rights transferred, conditions of sale, financing terms, and market conditions.

  • 1. Property Rights - All of the sales comparables were fee simple sales reflecting the property rights appraised herein per the agreed-upon scope of work. No adjustment is warranted.
  • 2. Financing - The sales all reflected typical cash equivalent, lender-financed transactions, and no adjustments were required for financing terms.
  • 3. Sale Conditions - None of the comparables required a condition of sale adjustment, as all were confirmed to be arm's length transactions.
  • 4. Market Conditions (Time) - Real estate values normally change over time. The rate of change fluctuates due to investors' perceptions of prevailing market conditions. This adjustment category reflects value changes, if any, which occurred between the date of the sale and the effective date of the appraisal. Residential market conditions within the subject's market and submarket have been improving since the earliest sale used in this analysis. However, this trend changed mid 2022 due to the increases in interest rates. Therefore, we've made a 6% upward adjustment up to June 30, 2022, and -2% thereafter.

QUANTITATIVE ADJUSTMENT PROCESS

Quantitative percentage adjustments are also made for location and physical characteristics such as size, location quality, access, and exposure, as well as other applicable elements of comparison. Where possible the adjustments applied are based on paired data or other statistical analysis. It should be stressed that the adjustments are subjective in nature and are meant to illustrate the logic in deriving a value opinion for the subject property by the Land Sales Comparison Approach.

ADJUSTMENTS

Adjustments to comparable sales were considered and made when warranted for expenditures after purchase, property rights transferred, conditions of sale, financing terms, and market conditions.

  • 1. Property Rights - All of the sales comparables were fee simple sales reflecting the property rights appraised herein per the agreed-upon scope of work. No adjustment is warranted.
  • 2. Financing - The sales all reflected typical cash equivalent, lender-financed transactions, and no adjustments were required for financing terms.
  • 3. Sale Conditions - None of the comparables required a condition of sale adjustment, as all were confirmed to be arm's length transactions.
  • 4. Market Conditions (Time) - Real estate values normally change over time. The rate of change fluctuates due to investors' perceptions of prevailing market conditions. This adjustment category reflects value changes, if any, which occurred between the date of the sale and the effective date of the appraisal. Residential market conditions within the subject's market and submarket have been improving since the earliest sale used in this analysis. However, this trend changed mid 2022 due to the increase in interest rates. Therefore, we've made a 3% upward adjustment up to June 30, 2022 and 3% after.

QUANTITATIVE ADJUSTMENT PROCESS

Quantitative percentage adjustments are also made for location and physical characteristics such as size, location quality, access, and exposure, as well as other applicable elements of comparison. Where possible the adjustments applied are based on paired data or other statistical analysis. It should be stressed that the adjustments are subjective in nature and are meant to illustrate the logic in deriving a value opinion for the subject property by the Land Sales Comparison Approach.

Extraordinary Assumptions

The value conclusions are subject to the following extraordinary assumptions that may affect the assignment results. An extraordinary assumption is an assignment-specific assumption as of the effective date regarding uncertain information used in the analysis which, if found to be false, could alter the appraiser's opinions or conclusions.

    1. The subject site is fully entitled and physically possible for the construction of 174 multi-family units and 50,000 square feet of retail space.
    1. The subject site benefits from master-planned infrastructure, including off-site retention for its allowed development of 174 multi-family units and 50,000 square feet of retail space.

HYPOTHETICAL CONDITIONS

The value conclusions are based on the following hypothetical conditions that may affect the assignment results. A Hypothetical Condition is a condition, directly related to a specific assignment, which is contrary to what is known by the appraiser to exist on the effective date of the assignment results, but is used for the purpose of the analysis.

  1. The existing Ergisi Way has been extended to the subject site. According to Doug Smith, Ergisi Way is in the process of being extended to the subject site.

EXPOSURE & MARKETING TIME

Marketing time and exposure time are both influenced by price. That is, a prudent buyer could be enticed to acquire the property in less time if the price were less. Hence, the time cited below coincides with the value opinion(s) formed herein.

USPAP Standard Rule 1-2(c)(iv) requires an opinion of exposure time, not marketing time when the purpose of the appraisal is to estimate market value. In the recent past, the volume of competitive properties offered for sale, sale prices, and vacancy rates have fluctuated, but Sale concessions have not been prevalent. The following information is used to estimate exposure time and marketing time for the subject:

EXPOSURE & MARKETING TIME
SOURCE MONTHS RANGE
AVERAGE
CoStar (St. Johns County Submarket) 9.0 to 15.0 12.0
OVERALL AVERAGE 12.0
Exposure Period Conclusion 12 Months
Marketing Time Conclusion 12 Months

EXPOSURE TIME

Exposure time is the length of time the subject property would have been exposed for sale in the market had it sold on the effective valuation date at the concluded market value. Exposure time is always presumed to precede the effective date of the appraisal. Based on our review of recent sales transactions for similar properties and our analysis of supply and demand in the local residential market, it is our opinion that the probable exposure time for the subject at the concluded market value stated previously is 12± months.

MARKETING TIME

Marketing time estimates the amount of time it might take to sell a property at the concluded market value immediately following the effective date of value. As we foresee no significant changes in market conditions in the near term, it is our opinion that a reasonable marketing period for the subject is likely to be the same as the exposure time. Accordingly, we estimate the subject's marketing period at 12± months.
