Bainbridge Multifamily Acquisition Fund I, LP $250M
Strategic Multifamily Investments Backed by Operational Expertise
Backed by a major institutional anchor investor, Bainbridge Multifamily Acquisition Fund (BMAF) I is targeting a minimum 15% net IRR to LPs through disciplined acquisitions of recent-vintage institutional multifamily assets across major East Coast markets, leveraging Bainbridge’s vertically integrated platform to drive long-term NOI growth and operational outperformance.
The 15% target net internal rate of return ("Target Net IRR") for Bainbridge Multifamily Acquisition Fund I, LP (the "Fund") is a hypothetical projection and not a guarantee, forecast, or prediction of actual returns. The Target Net IRR is presented to verified accredited investors evaluating an investment in a closed-end private real estate fund and is not relevant to other audiences.
Calculation and basis. The Target Net IRR represents the projected internal rate of return to limited partners, calculated on the basis of projected cash distributions and residual value over the Fund's anticipated hold period, net of management fees, fund-level expenses, and carried interest payable to the general partner, but before any taxes payable by an investor. The Target Net IRR is not based on actual trading or operating results of the Fund.
Material assumptions. The Target Net IRR is based on assumptions that Bainbridge believes to be reasonable, including assumptions regarding: (i) acquisition pricing relative to replacement cost and stabilized market value; (ii) availability and terms of acquisition and permanent financing, including initial positive leverage; (iii) hold periods of approximately 5 years; (iv) market rent growth, occupancy, and NOI growth across target submarkets; (v) operating expense and capital expenditure levels; (vi) exit cap rates and exit market conditions; and (vii) the absence of materially adverse macroeconomic, capital markets, or regulatory developments. A change in any of these assumptions could cause actual returns to differ materially from the Target Net IRR.
Risks and limitations. Hypothetical performance has inherent limitations. Among other things, it does not reflect actual investment decisions or trading, is prepared with the benefit of hindsight as to certain market conditions, and cannot account for all of the financial risk that may affect actual performance. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve the Target Net IRR, generate any return, or avoid loss of some or all of an investor's capital. Investors should not place undue reliance on the Target Net IRR. Past performance — including the historical performance of Bainbridge affiliates referenced elsewhere herein — is not indicative of future results. Additional information regarding the assumptions and risks underlying the Target Net IRR is set forth in the Fund's Private Placement Memorandum, which prospective investors should review in its entirety before investing.
Investment Strategy
BMAF I is focused on acquiring institutional-quality multifamily communities in high-growth markets with opportunities to enhance operational performance and drive long-term value.
- Value creation driven by NOI growth through operational performance enhancement — not reliant on cap rate compression for exit returns
- 100% Focus on existing, stabilized multifamily assets — no ground-up development
- Exit strategy anchored in income fundamentals, with intended initial positive leverage providing cash flow support.
- Well located and high-quality multifamily properties across Bainbridge’s footprint (Mid-Atlantic and Southeast)
- Focus on high-growth markets and submarkets with meaningful supply constraints or short-term supply dislocations, where long-term household formations exceed housing stock additions
- Priced at deep discounts to replacement cost
- Priced at a discount to true, stabilized market value
- Initial positive leverage or clear path to positive leverage
- Sourced primarily off-market
- Targeting high demand markets that are experiencing significant drops in new supply

Value Creation Strategy
Investment approach focused on operational improvements, disciplined underwriting, detailed cross-department due diligence, and organic NOI growth as the primary drivers of return.
TARGETED CAPEX
Identify opportunities to generate additional NOI through light, but high impact, capex improvements
OPERATIONAL IMPROVEMENTS
Identify opportunities to generate additional NOI through improvements to leasing, marketing, operations
MARKET SELECTION
Identify submarkets with supply burn off and / or limited additional supply, allowing additional NOI through market rent growth
ACQUISITION BASIS
Acquire newer-vintage assets and portfolios at deep discounts to replacement cost and market value from distressed and motivated sellers

Bainbridge Affiliate Track Record — Gross, Since the GFC (as of December 31, 2025)
The performance information shown above reflects the historical investment activity of affiliates of The Bainbridge Companies LLC and does not represent the performance of Bainbridge Multifamily Acquisition Fund I, LP (the "Fund"). The Fund has a limited operating history, and its performance will differ, potentially materially, from the historical results shown.
Aggregated gross IRR calculations combine all cumulative cash flows for each project. All returns are presented on a gross basis before carried interest distributions and do not reflect the deduction of management fees, fund-level expenses, or taxes that would reduce returns to investors. Net returns would be materially lower than the gross returns presented. Individual deal returns are not indicative of fund-level or portfolio-level returns.
Unrealized returns reflect forward-looking projections as determined by Bainbridge in good faith. Such projections are inherently uncertain, and actual results may differ materially. Exit dates for unrealized investments represent the hypothetical exit date used for calculating projected IRR and equity multiple; there are no assurances such timing or results will be achieved.
Certain realized returns are based on implied or hypothetical values at the time Bainbridge exited a transaction, including instances where Bainbridge assigned or exchanged its interest in a deal, where an equity partner wrote off its position, or where a deed in lieu of foreclosure was executed. In such cases, returns are calculated based on the implied value of Bainbridge's equity at the time of resolution rather than an arm's-length sale to a third party. These assumptions are identified in the footnotes to the track record.
Certain transactions involve portfolios of multiple properties that were acquired, managed, or disposed of as a single transaction; returns for such portfolios are calculated on an aggregate basis. Additionally, certain properties appear more than once in the track record where Bainbridge recapitalized or re-acquired an asset following an initial disposition, and each such transaction is treated as a separate investment for purposes of return calculation.
The track record presented herein has not been audited or independently verified by any third party. Bainbridge has prepared these materials in good faith based on its internal records, but no representation or warranty is made as to their accuracy or completeness. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
