Good thing we did.
The first round of comments came on time.
The second round introduced a new planner.
The third included requirements the city had never enforced before.
It was textbook friction.
The land was infill.
Zoning was favorable.
The city said we could move fast.
We didn’t believe them.
We built holding costs, design pauses, and equity reserves into the model before we closed.
This is the kind of planning we bring to every deal.

We closed the raise in less than 30 days.
The project delivered on time.
And we never touched the contingency.
If we’d believed the 12-month timeline, we’d be rewriting history.
Most developers underwrite timelines that feel comfortable.
Then they get blindsided by a planning department that doesn’t care.
We inherited a site with a “12-month entitlement window.”
It took 21.

The asset looked stable.
Clean facade.
Long-term tenants.
Multiple revenue streams.
But when we got under the hood, there was one problem:
No one could produce a rent roll.
First Harbor Square is a clear example of how Primior integrates long-term strategy, tax efficiency, and real estate performance.
Located in a Qualified Opportunity Zone in Santa Ana, this $105.99 million development is designed to deliver both strong returns and substantial tax advantages.

➡️ Total Investment: $105.99M
➡️ Land Valuation: $22.6M
➡️ Construction Cost: $68.11M
➡️ Interest Reserve: $8.6M
➡️ Other Costs: $7.28M

These returns are pre-tax and do not include Opportunity Zone benefits. With 25 percent of capital gains eliminated, after-tax returns on this investment are expected to be approximately 25 percent higher than comparable non-OZ projects.
First Harbor Square is built for investors who value strong cash flow, long-term appreciation, and strategic tax planning. This is institutional real estate with clarity and purpose.
Opportunity Zones offer more than upside.
They offer serious tax advantages when structured properly.
Investors curious about how tax deferral and elimination could impact their after-tax returns should start with data, not guesswork. Primior’s Opportunity Zone calculator walks you through a side-by-side comparison of projected returns with and without OZ benefits.

The key to building wealth is not constant activity. It is disciplined capital preservation paired with patience.
Victor Sperandeo’s quote captures a core principle of our investment philosophy at Primior. Great returns come not from chasing every deal but from waiting for the right opportunities to deploy capital into high-performing, durable assets.
That means knowing when to move and when to hold, while staying focused on protecting principal and compounding over time.
At Primior, we help investors do just that.
Our strategy prioritizes wealth preservation while positioning for long-term, tax-advantaged growth through institutional-grade real estate. It is not just about investing. It is about investing with intention.
Our LPs rarely ask how returns were calculated.
What they do ask:
Who controls distributions?
Who approves refinances?
Who signs leases?
That’s how you know they’re good at what they do.
"Investing is for wealth preservation, not wealth creation, so first you have to make wealth."
— James Altucher
Investing isn’t about getting rich quick.
It’s about protecting the capital you’ve worked hard to build and growing it responsibly over time.
At Primior, we don't chase trends or overpromise. We focus on helping investors preserve and grow their wealth through long-term, income-generating assets backed by real fundamentals. Real estate isn’t just a vehicle for growth. It’s a hedge against inflation, a source of recurring income, and a path to legacy.
For high-net-worth individuals and entrepreneurs, the goal isn’t to gamble. It’s to safeguard wealth while earning strong, risk-adjusted returns. That’s what we deliver.
