On June 27, 2014, the Company acquired a 100% ownership interest in a property located in Tallahassee, Florida at an auction for a purchase price of $2,500,000 and rehabilitation expenses of $159,170 for a total of $2,659,170. During the period ended May 31, 2015, the Company incurred rehabilitation expenses of $16,411 related to the property and during this period inventory of properties under development increased by $225,557. The property consisted of 56 residential units consisting of one and two bedrooms. There were preexisting  leases. However, due to the short-term nature of the leases, no value was assigned to them. The property was purchased for the purpose of resale after renovations. Offers for the purchase of the property have been received. On February 2, 2015, a written offer for $3,500,000 has been executed.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.

 

Company Overview

We are focused on the acquisition, rehabilitation and sale of distressed residential properties in the United States. We will, however, consider the acquisition of commercial and multi-family properties as well. Our corporate offices are located at 2375 East Camelback Road, Suite 600, Phoenix, AZ 85016 and our phone number is (602) 387-5393.

We believe that the current housing market environment presents an unprecedented opportunity for those who have the expertise, operating platform, technology systems and capital in place to execute an acquisition and operating strategy in a cost-effective manner. We intend to build a geographically diversified portfolio of primarily residential homes in target markets that we believe exhibit favorable demographics and long-term economic trends, attractive acquisition prices and appreciation potential, as well as rental yields with commercial and multi-family properties. We intend to implement a buy and renovate strategy to increase value, livability, and attractiveness, and then sell the properties or we may keep them for value as rental properties.

In furthering our business plan, we have been actively searching for capital to purchase distressed properties and build our inventory. We have sold an aggregate of $9,150,000 of our 5% unsecured promissory notes (the “5% Notes”) for gross proceeds to us of $9,150,000. The 5% Notes accrued interest at the rate of 5% per annum are due and payable twenty four months from their respective dates of issuance, subject to acceleration in the event of default and the 5% Notes may be prepaid, in whole or in part, without penalty or premium.

With the money we have raised through debt financing to date we have acquired 23 properties for a purchase price of $11,855,762.02. Of these 23 properties we have sold 14 for $7,019,800.00 prior to closing costs. Also, 1 property is under contract for sale, 2 are listed for sale, and 6 are under rehab.  The properties include single and multi-family residences in 6 States. We plan to recycle all the capital from these properties and purchase more similar type assets to rehabilitate and sell. Additionally, we plan to expand our portfolio and have been looking at other major urban markets to enter into. Our short and long-term goals are to seek out opportunistic real estate investments that meet our underwriting criteria including twenty percent annualized returns. There is no assurance, however, that we will find the assets that fit our parameters or that we will raise the needed capital to implement our business plan.

We will continue our efforts to secure additional financing, which is necessary to implement our business strategy of acquiring a substantial portfolio investment properties. We plan to continue our efforts to secure financing.

We generated sales of $749,997 for the three months ended May 31, 2015, as compared with sales of $1,210,000 for the same period ended May 31, 2014. Our cost of sales totaled $746,244 for the three months ended May 31, 2015, as compared with cost of sales of $1,108,610 for the same period ended May 31, 2014. Our costs of sales includes: purchase price, rental expenses, rehabilitation, escrow, closing costs, and commissions. We only had one sale during the three months ended May 31, 2015, which resulted in a profit of $25,232. We expect to have more sales in the upcoming quarter. We achieved a gross profit of $3,753 for the three months ended May 31, 2015, as compared with a gross profit of $101,390 for the same period ended May 31, 2015.

 

We generated sales of $1,425,416 for the six months ended May 31, 2015, as compared with sales of $1,210,000 for the same period ended May 31, 2014. Our cost of sales totaled $1,311,496 for the six months ended May 31, 2015, as compared with sales of $1,108,610 for the same period ended May 31, 2014. Our costs of sales includes: purchase price, rental expenses, rehabilitation, escrow, closing costs, and commissions. We achieved a gross profit of $113,920 for the six months ended May 31, 2015, which represented an 8% margin, as compared with a gross profit of $101,390, which also represented an 8% margin.

 

Discontinued Operations

 

We purchased a property for $2,500,000 (and rehabilitation expenses of $159,170) that is now related to discontinued operations and held for sale. Our income from these discontinued operations totaled $563 for the three months ended May 31, 2015 and $85,596 for the six months ended May 31, 2015.

 

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses decreased by $10,197 to $85,540 for the three months ended May 31, 2015 from $95,737 for the same period ended May 31, 2014. Our operating expenses for the three months ended May 31, 2015 mainly consisted of management fees and expenses of $42,895, professional fees of $30,776, general and administrative expenses of $7,751, depreciation of $2,459 and insurance expenses of $1,659. In comparison, our operating expenses for the three months ended May 31, 2014 consisted of professional fees in the amount of $36,713, management fees and expenses of $35,621, general and administrative expenses of $17,338 and insurance expenses of $6,065.

Operating expenses increased by $19,441 to $163,173 for the six months ended May 31, 2015 from $143,732 for the same period ended May 31, 2014. Our operating expenses for the six months ended May 31, 2015 mainly consisted of management fees and expenses of $73,842, professional fees of $48,829, general and administrative expenses of $23,113, insurance expenses of $7,472, consulting fees of $5,000 and depreciation of $4,917. In comparison, our operating expenses for the six months ended May 31, 2014 consisted of professional fees in the amount of $44,965, management fees and expenses of $54,371, general and administrative expenses of $26,331, consulting fees of $12,000 and insurance expenses of $6,065.

We anticipate our operating expenses will increase as we continue to expand our operations. The increase will be attributable to administrative and operating costs associated with the management associated with the increase in the acquisition, renovation and sale of residential properties and our continued reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Interest Expenses

 

We incurred interest expenses of $117,772 for the three months ended May 31, 2015, as compared with $60,240 for the same period ended May 31, 2014. We incurred interest expenses of $233,036 for the six months ended May 31, 2015, as compared with $95,821 for the same period ended May 31, 2014.

On April 21, 2014, we borrowed $4,500,000 at an interest rate of 5% per annum. The promissory note is unsecured and is due on April 21, 2016.

On June 23, 2014, we borrowed $2,000,000 at an interest rate of 5% per annum. The promissory note is unsecured and is due on June 23, 2016.

We expect that interest expenses will increase as we plan to take on more debt to finance our property acquisitions resulting in higher interest expenses.

For the three months ended May 31, 2015, we incurred a loss of $199,559 from continuing operations and net income of $563 from discontinued operations. For the six months ended May 31, 2015, we incurred a loss of $282,289 from continuing operations and net income of $85,586 from discontinued operations.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of May 31, 2015, we had total assets of $8,815,184. We had total liabilities of $10,283,201 as of May 31, 2015.

Operating activities provided $261,125 in cash for the six months ended May 31, 2015, as compared with $2,359,532 used for the same period ended May 31, 2014. Our positive operating cash flow for May 31, 2015 was mainly a result of a decrease in our real property inventory and a decrease in accrued interest.

Investing activities used $16,411 in cash for six months ended May 31, 2015, as compared with $0 used for same period ended May 31, 2014. Our negative investing cash flow for May 31, 2015 was mainly a result of a property related to discontinued operations now held for sale.

Financing activities for the six months ended May 31, 2015 used $104,473 in cash, as compared with cash flows provided by financing activities of $4,537,353 for same period ended May 31, 2014. Our negative cash flow from financing activities for the three months ended May 31, 2014 was the result of repaying advances that we obtained from Cannabis-Rx, Inc.

As of May 31, 2015, we had $493,926 in cash. With the cash on hand, we have sufficient cash to operate our business at the current level for the next twelve months. Our plan, however, is to acquire more properties, and to do this, we intend to fund our expansion through debt and/or equity financing arrangements. We do not have any formal commitments or arrangements for the sales of stock or the advancement or loan of funds at this time. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.

Critical Accounting Policies

In December 2001, the SEC requested that all registrants list their most “critical accounting polices” in the Management Discussion and Analysis. The SEC indicated that a “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results, and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

Our critical accounting policies are set forth in Note 2 to the financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

We do not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

  

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of May 31, 2015, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, as of May 31, 2015, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, including to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of May 31, 2015, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses identified and described below.

 

Our principal executive officers do not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. Although our disclosure controls and procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our principal executive officers have determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at doing so, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented if there exists in an individual a desire to do so. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

 

Remediation Plan to Address the Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management identified the following three material weaknesses that have caused management to conclude that, as of May 31, 2015, our disclosure controls and procedures, and our internal control over financial reporting, were not effective at the reasonable assurance level:

 

•       We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as of the period ending May 31, 2015. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.

 

•       We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.

 

•       Effective controls over the control environment were not maintained. Specifically, a formally adopted written code of business conduct and ethics that governs our employees, officers, and directors was not in place. There is a material weakness in our management not having GAAP and SEC reporting expertise. Additionally, management has not developed and effectively communicated to employees its accounting policies and procedures. This has resulted in inconsistent practices. Further, our Board of Directors does not currently have any independent members and no director qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. Since these entity level programs have a pervasive effect across the organization, management has determined that these circumstances constitute a material weakness.

 

To address these material weaknesses, management performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that the financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Accordingly, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

To remediate the material weakness in our documentation, evaluation and testing of internal controls we plan to engage a third-party firm to assist us in remedying this material weakness once resources become available.

 

We intend to remedy our material weakness with regard to insufficient segregation of duties by hiring additional employees in order to segregate duties in a manner that establishes effective internal controls once resources become available.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

No change in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report, the period ended May 31, 2015, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
