Advantages
Real estate is one of the last remaining legal tax shelters available to private investors. Lookout Towers is structured to maximize these benefits — here's how.
Bonus Depreciation
Under current tax law, certain real estate assets qualify for accelerated bonus depreciation. Through cost segregation, components of the tower — mechanical systems, personal property, land improvements — can be depreciated in Year 1, potentially generating a paper loss that offsets your other income.
Cost Segregation
A cost segregation study identifies and reclassifies components of the property from 39-year depreciation schedules to 5, 7, or 15-year schedules. For a new construction asset like a Lookout Tower, this strategy significantly accelerates the depreciation benefit available to investors.
Offset Active Income
For investors who qualify as Real Estate Professionals under IRS rules, passive losses from real estate may be used to offset active (W-2 or business) income. Even for non-professionals, passive losses can offset other passive income. Consult your tax advisor to understand your specific eligibility.
Long-Term Appreciation
Any appreciation in asset value is not taxed until the asset is sold. For Option B investors holding through a 3-year exit, gains are typically taxed at long-term capital gains rates — significantly lower than ordinary income rates for most investors.

FAQs
Do you understand this enough to move forward? We're here to make sure the answer is yes.
Every investment carries risk. Our fund is structured with conservative underwriting, third-party admin via Avestor, and diversified across 14+ locations to mitigate single-asset exposure. In a worst-case scenario, equity is at risk — but downside is limited by hard assets, insurance, and senior debt structures.
Distributions are paid quarterly via ACH directly to your linked bank account, beginning after the property reaches stabilization. You'll also receive a K-1 each year for tax filing.
Investments have a typical 5–7 year hold, with a 12-month liquidity exit option after the initial period. Early redemptions may be available case-by-case at the fund manager's discretion.
Minimum commitments start at $50,000 for accredited investors. Larger allocations unlock additional travel credits and co-investment opportunities.
The fund is open to accredited investors as defined by SEC Rule 501. We verify accreditation through a third-party process during onboarding.
Lookout Towers operates a vertically integrated model we control acquisition, design, development, and hospitality operations. Avestor serves as independent fund administrator for transparency.
