The journey of the Tulsa Real Estate Fund has been tumultuous, and it appears to be reaching a critical moment. The recent announcement by Julien Gordon, a prominent investor in the fund, has shed light on the dire financial situation the fund is facing. The Black House, a significant asset of the fund, is now officially on the market.
The Black House For Sale
According to Gordon, the Black House, known as the Legacy Center, has been listed for sale on Instagram by Jarvis Broughton of Interrut. The property, a sprawling 31,000 sq ft flex industrial asset located in East Point, GA, boasts 20,000 sq ft dedicated to production and event space, with an additional 10,000 sq ft of modern office facilities. Despite its impressive facilities and strategic location, the sale marks a decisive and somber moment for the fund.
Financial Strain and Management Decisions
The Tulsa Real Estate Fund, initiated by Jay Morrison with a promise to revitalize and empower black communities through strategic real estate investments, raised $11.7 million. However, recent developments have revealed financial strains, with Morrison having refinanced the building and allegedly withdrawn $1.5 million to cover management fees and operational losses. Gordon, who has personally lost $40,000, expressed his disappointment and concern over the fund’s nearing bankruptcy.
Investor Concerns and Responses
The decision to sell the Legacy Center has raised numerous questions among investors, especially concerning the return of their investments. Many investors, like Gordon, have voiced their concerns and sought clarity on whether profits from the sale would be distributed among the fund’s backers. Unfortunately, there has been no official response to these queries, increasing investor anxiety and dissatisfaction.
