Exhibit 99.1
Belpointe PREP, LLC Announces All Outstanding Loan Receivables Have Been Repaid In Full And Early
GREENWICH, Conn., Dec. 16, 2022 — Belpointe PREP, LLC (NYSE American: OZ) (“Belpointe OZ” or the “Company”), a publicly traded qualified opportunity fund, announced today that all of its outstanding loans receivables, including a $30.0 million related party loan, have been repaid in full.
On February 23, 2022, Belpointe OZ provided a commercial mortgage loan in the principal amount of $5.0 million (the “Visco Loan”) to Visco Propco, LLC (“Visco”). The Visco Loan was evidenced by a promissory note bearing interest at an annual rate of 6.0%, due and payable on February 18, 2023, and was secured by a first lien deed of trust on certain real property. Visco repaid the Visco Loan in full on December 6, 2022.
On June 28, 2022, Belpointe OZ provided a commercial mortgage loan in the principal amount of $30.0 million (the “Norpointe Loan”) to Norpointe, LLC (“Norpointe”), an affiliate of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The loan was evidenced by a promissory note bearing interest at an annual rate of 5.0%, due and payable on June 28, 2023, and was secured by a first mortgage lien on certain real property. Norpointe repaid the Norpointe Loan in full on December 13, 2022.
“The Visco Loan made it possible for us to acquire our latest development site in Nashville, Tennessee,” said Brandon Lacoff, Chief Executive Officer of Belpointe OZ, “while the Norpointe Loan enabled us to receive a 5% coupon on capital that would have otherwise been sitting in cash at a time when banks were offering rates of less than 1%. Having this cash back on the books allows us the flexibility to make additional acquisitions or place it into higher yielding prospects. Overall, we’re pleased with the performance of these two loans.”
