Introduction — Manufacturer and Operator of Elevated Retreat Towers | Secured Bridge Loan Opportunity
Sinclair Range is engaged to arrange a bridge loan of US$1,450,000, for a term of six months, for a United States and Canadian group (the “Company”) that designs, manufactures, installs and operates elevated retreat towers in premium resort and nature destinations across North America. The facility funds the Company’s manufacturing programme from October 2026 to January 2027, converting an assembled land base and a completed factory into finished, revenue producing towers.
The product is an elevated retreat tower, derived from the classic fire lookout and reinterpreted for luxury hospitality. Most short term rental inventory is interchangeable, so guests choose on price. A tower is differentiated from commoditised cabin inventory and is price setting within its segment. The Company buys the land, manufactures the tower as a factory built kit at its own plant in Ontario, Canada, installs it, and then either operates it as a short term rental or sells the kit to a third party buyer. The first tower is complete, the second in production, and permits are issued at the first construction site.
Key Strengths:
- Demand proven before construction. More than 10,000 VIP reservations have been taken at US$50 each, and the Company has grossed more than US$1.5 million of sales across eight markets since October 2025, before cancellations and including taxes and ancillary services. Three tower releases sold out within hours. Amounts, refund obligations and stay dates are scheduled in the CIM.
- First security over land, equipment, inventory and receivables. First mortgages over ten holdings totalling 63 acres in eight states, all acquired within the past twelve months at a cost of US$1,926,000. Land is carried at those very recent arm’s length purchase prices, not at appraised value. Entitlement, access, servicing and short term rental status vary by parcel and are scheduled in the CIM. The lender also takes a first charge over the manufacturing equipment, the timber inventory and materials the facility buys, and the receivables as tower sales generate them. First ranking is achieved by postponing approximately US$785,000 of related party loans from the affiliated funds, which is within the Company’s control.
- Repayment from tower sales, continuing equity subscriptions or refinancing. Management projects tower sales of US$1,100,000 in early 2027, repaying US$825,000, or 57% of the advance, within the term. Repayment does not depend on that timing. The Company’s affiliated funds have raised approximately US$3.35 million of investor equity to date and continue to raise monthly. A larger asset based facility, at more conventional rates, is in process and is expected to refinance this bridge. The facility is structured on the assumption that the sales may run later than projected.
