I invested into their Crowne Plaza near Dallas deal just in Nov 2017. Hence, it is too early to speak to the performance of this project at this early stage. However, after I walked the hotel and interviewed with the current staffs, I upped my bet as I felt so positive with the project. I flew to LA to meet with the core team and to exchange in-depth opinions on their background and strategy. This is a team from Asia (Taiwan and China). They have extended background in insurance, banking, and real estate investment specifically in hospitality. The team has access to a few ultra- high net worth individuals for the bulk of the equity portion. The track record on other prior projects was excellent. More importantly, they put in 10% co-investment in all their deals. I feel very confident with this core team and I look forward to participating in other future project(s) if my liquidity warrant.

I'm in the NJ Woodbridge deal with ASAP. So far so good, beating proforma, excellent reporting, very detailed and professional. Very prompt responses to any questions. Look forward to investing in future deals with this sponsor.

I invested one deal of ASAP's, which just closed escrow a few months ago, therefore I cannot give them a rating for Track Record/Performance, and I don't recall how the Fees rated on the deal.
However, I did give them 5 out of 5 stars for "Communications/Reporting". The deal was supposed to close around May or Jun 2016, and I remitted funds in April. For various reasons, the official closing was delayed into November 2016. During this time, ASAP was communicative regarding the delays, but the biggest positive was instead of holding my funds as "dead money" in escrow, they paid the preferred rate from April 2016. I actually received my first preferred payment in October 2016, which is BEFORE they closed on the investment.
The 1st quarterly report (Q4/2016) was well prepared, detailed and delivered to investors around 40 days after the end of the quarter. A reasonable time for a 1st report.
Very impressed with the sponsor, without actually having much info on how the investment is progressing.
