Item 1. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations BUSINESS
BridgeWell Preferred Income LP (the “Company”) was formed on January 25, 2016 for the purpose of investing in mortgages secured by real estate. The Company also invests in commercial real estate for renovation and sale, and land development to hold for appreciation and/or income production.
As of June 30, 2020, the Company had sold 17,956 Limited Partnership Interests (Units) to Investors ($17.96 million).
As of June 30, 2020, the Company is invested in $12.79 million in secured mortgage notes, and $2.94 million in real estate investments, of which $989,387 is real estate owned retention. As of December 19, 2020, the Company was invested in $14.5 million in secured mortgage notes, and $2.6 million in real estate investments, of which $634,687 was in real estate owned retention.
The Company held $1.85 million in cash at depository insured banks as of June 30, 2020. Of the $1.85 million in cash, $500,808 was restricted. The Company held $1.4 million in cash as of December 31, 2019, of which $500,530 was restricted.
On January 7, 2020 the Company has been qualified with the Securities and Exchange Commission by ways of post-qualification amendment to continue to offer Limited Partnership Units beyond the initial 12 months. Rule 251(D)(3)(I)(F)(4) permits Regulation A Offerings to conduct ongoing, continuous offerings of securities for more than thirty (30) days after the qualification date, but only if not more than three (3) years have elapsed since the initial qualification date of the offering, unless a new offering circular is submitted. The Company is permitted to continue to offer and sell the securities until the earlier of the qualification date of the new offering circular or the one hundred eighty (180) calendar days after the third anniversary of the initial qualification date of the prior offering circular, i.e. July 30, 2021. The Company intends to offer the Limited Partnership Units on a continuous and ongoing basis pursuant to Rule 251(D)(3)(I)(F).
In December 2019, an outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) originated in China and has since spread to other countries, including the U.S. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 outbreak on operations of the Company will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, related advisories and restrictions, government actions, the impact on financial markets and the overall economy, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. If the financial markets and/or the overall economy are impacted for an extended period, the Company’s operations can be affected. Future potential impacts may include the borrowers’ ability to pay the required monthly loan payments or ability to solicit additional capital. As of the date of this report, the majority of Company’s borrowers have been paying on their loans. The rate of default (defined as 45 days late) has not increased in the first six months of 2020. Institutional buyers of long-term mortgage notes did not continue to buy loans during this period. New institutional buyers of long-term mortgage notes may need to be sourced in the future. Operating functions that have changed include site visits, borrower draws, and new loan applications and funding. Foreclosure actions on non-performing loans have been delayed. Permitting, zoning and other issues related to real estate held for development or rehabilitation has been delayed. All of these trends are predicted to continue through the end of 2020 and into the first half of 2021. Changes to the operating environment may increase operating costs. Depending on the severity and length of the outbreak, the novel coronavirus could present uncertainty and risk with respect to the Company, its performance, and its financial results in the future.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company is seeking to raise up to $50 million of capital by selling Limited Partnership Interests (Units) to Investors. We deploy most of the capital we raise in secured mortgage notes, existing income-producing real estate, and if it is more advantageous, in the development of income-producing real estate. We also buy packages of non-performing loans and real estate to capitalize on strong real estate metrics in the market at the time of this report.
There is no public market for units of the Company, and none is expected to develop in the foreseeable future. The Company does have a redemption program however, no Limited Partnership unit holder may request a redemption until 90 days after the units were purchased. Any redemption is not subject to penalty. The Company will only redeem Limited Partnership units up to 10% of the value of the assets under management per quarter. During the six months ending June 30, 2020, the Company returned $1.3 million in limited partner capital and raised $4.3 million in new limited partner capital, for a net increase of $3.0 million.
On March 25, 2020, the Manager (PIM) was informed by the current warehouse lender that they could not currently fund BridgeWell loans due to the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on their operations. This $5.0 million warehouse line, which has been in place since the first quarter of 2019, is considered temporarily suspended and the Manager is in continuing discussions with the bank as to the terms and conditions of re-opening the line. At the time of this report, the Company has sufficient cash to purchase new loans, thereby making the temporary loss of the use of this warehouse line of no significant impact in the near term.
Trend Information
We are closely monitoring the impact of changing interest rates and rates of return on the type of secured mortgage notes that the Company purchases. During the reporting period ending June 30, 2020, we have not noticed a material change substantial enough to prevent the Company from acquiring investment inventory at sufficient rates to provide Limited Partner preferred returns.

Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 2020
| NOTE 1 - | SUMMARY OF ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Organization
BridgeWell Preferred Income LP (the “Company”) is a Florida limited partnership formed on January 25, 2016. The general partner is the Preferred Income Manager LLC (“PIM”, “General Partner” or the “Manager”). The Company invests primarily in mortgage loans secured by the first and/or second mortgages issued to home remodelers, landlords, builders, developers, private and commercial real estate investors who purchase or refinance residential real estate properties that they intend to hold as rental property or for resale. Operations are conducted throughout the United States, but primarily in Florida. Mortgage loans acquired by the Company are primarily originated by BridgeWell Capital LLC, an affiliated company to the Manager, pursuant to a set of underwriting guidelines approved by management. BridgeWell Capital LLC also services the loans pursuant to a Master Note Servicing Agreement. The Company focuses on purchasing loans in the following states: Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Indiana, however, the Company holds loans throughout the United States.
The Company also invests in commercial real estate or land that management intends to renovate and sell or hold for appreciation and/or income production.
The Company’s commercial investment operations commenced upon receiving authority to issue Limited Partnership Units as discussed below.
General Company Provisions
The Company is managed by PIM, the Company’s General Partner (“General Partner” or the “Manager”). The rights, duties and powers of the Manager are governed by the Company’s limited partnership agreement.
PIM acting alone has the power and authority to act for and bind the Company.
Terms and Offering of the Company
The Company will continue in perpetuity unless PIM chooses to dissolve it.
Limited Partnership Units
On January 31, 2018, the Company received qualification from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to issue Limited Partnership Units under Regulation A, the Conditional Small Issues Exemption, for a period of 12 months. Under the terms of the Company’s offering, it can issue up to 50,000 Limited Partnership Units at a price of
Limited Partnership Units (continued)
$1,000 per unit. The Limited Partnership Units bear a preferred return of 7.00%. Limited Partners holding more than 75% of the Limited Partnership Units may vote to dissolve the Company. As of June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the number of outstanding Limited Partnership Units were 17,956 and 14,780, respectively.
On January 7, 2020 the Company was qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission through post-qualification amendment to continue to offer Limited Partnership Units beyond the initial 12 months. Rule 251(D)(3)(I)(F)(4) permits Regulation A Offerings to conduct ongoing, continuous offerings of securities for more than thirty (30) days after the qualification date, but only if not more than three (3) years have elapsed since the initial qualification date of the offering, unless a new offering circular is submitted. The Company is permitted to continue to offer and sell the securities until the earlier of the qualification date of the new offering circular or the one hundred eighty (180) calendar days after the third anniversary of the initial qualification date of the prior offering circular, i.e. July 30, 2021. The Company intends to offer the Limited Partnership Units on a continuous and ongoing basis pursuant to Rule 251(D)(3)(I)(F).
General Partnership Units
The Company issued General Partnership Units to PIM, the General Partner. General Partnership Units are voting units and give the General Partner the sole discretion to operate the Company. General Partnership Units are entitled to 100% of profits after the payment of Company expenses and the 7.00% preferred return to the limited partners. As of June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the number of General Partnership Units remained at 70.185.
Liquidity and Withdrawals
There is no public market for units of the Company, and none is expected to develop in the foreseeable future. The Company does have a redemption program; however, no Limited Partnership unit holder may request a redemption until 90 days after the units were purchased. Any redemption is not subject to penalty. The Company will only redeem Limited Partnership units up to 10% of the value of the assets under management per quarter.
Profits and Losses
Subject to performance of the Company and after paying Company expenses, management fees and interest on the line of credit, profits and losses are allocated in the following order:
| ● | Losses are allocated pro-rata to Limited Partners |
| ● | Profits are allocated pro-rata to Limited Partners to the extent of prior losses; then to pay for cumulative preferred returns; thereafter 100% to the General Partner. |
Distributions
The Company distributes or reinvests amounts equal to the Limited Partners’ 7.00% non-compounded preferred return on their proportionate units based on the Company’s excess distributable cash each month. PIM will distribute funds only to the extent that funds are available.
Management and Related Party Fees
The Manager and/or its affiliates are entitled to receive certain fees, compensation and expense reimbursements from the Company, such as, but not limited to, the amounts specified below.
BridgeWell Capital LLC services loans and collects a servicing fee of up to 3.00% of the principal balance. This is outlined in the Note Servicing Agreement.
PIM is entitled to receive an asset management fee of 1.00% per annum on assets under management. This is outlined in the Regulation A filing.
The Company receives certain operating and administrative services from PIM, some of which may not be reimbursed to PIM. The Company’s financial position and results of operations would likely be different without this relationship with the Manager.
Basis of Accounting and Use of Estimates
The Company’s financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company is an investment company that follows the specialized accounting and reporting guidance of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies. The accrual basis of accounting requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses reported in the financial statements, as well as amounts included in the notes thereto, including discussion and disclosure of contingent liabilities. Although the Company uses its best estimates and judgements, actual results could differ from these estimates as future confirming events occur.
Mortgage Loans Receivable
Mortgage loans receivable are recorded at their outstanding principal balance with interest thereon being accrued as earned. Company loans will have varying terms at the discretion of the Manager. Most Company loans will generally have a term of 12 months and provide for monthly payments of interest with a “balloon payment” at the end of the term. As of June 30, 2020, there are certain loans that have terms of two, three and 30 years. The Company will not recognize interest income on loans once they are determined to be impaired until the interest is collected in cash. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price or the fair value of the underlying collateral.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loans losses will be established for future potential loan losses. Loan losses will be charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, will be credited to income. The allowance for loan loss is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectability of the loans in light of historical experience, the types and dollar amounts of loans in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. As of June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, there were no allowances for loan losses recorded.
Real Estate Investments
Real Estate Purchases
The Company invests in real estate and real estate trusts in select locations, redevelops them with the goal of selling them for retail market value or holding them for appreciation and/or income generation, providing investor attractive returns. Investments in real estate are carried at fair value. Real estate investments are comprised of commercial properties or raw land that is initially recorded at the purchase price plus closing costs when acquired. Improvements and development costs are capitalized as a component of the cost. Real estate investments are accounted for in accordance with FASB Topic 946, which requires investments to be initially measured at their transaction price and subsequently measured at fair value when the real estate rehabilitation or development is close to completion or completed and management is able to make an assessment of fair value. The fair value of each real estate investment is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between marketplace participants at the measurement date. Unrealized new gains or loss are recorded in the statement of income.
Foreclosed Assets (Real Estate Owned)
Real estate owned includes real estate acquired in full or partial settlement of loan obligations plus capitalized construction and other development costs incurred while preparing the real estate for sale. At the time of foreclosure, the property is recorded at fair value, and the gains or losses on foreclosure are recorded in operating income or expense. Following foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed with any subsequent write-downs recorded as a separate valuation allowance against real estate owned and charged to other operating expenses.
Subsequent increases to real estate owned are only allowed up to the original cost basis, which is equal to the value of the property at the time of foreclosure.
Real Estate Investments (continued)
Foreclosed Assets (Real Estate Owned) (continued)
The maintenance of the real estate owned for which rent is collected, is expensed as incurred. The maintenance of real estate owned that does not have rent collected is capitalized. The Fund actively works to sell the acquired real estate, and gains and losses on these dispositions are recorded in operating income or expense. Recognition of gains
on the sale of real estate is dependent upon the transaction meeting certain criteria related to the nature of the property, terms of sale and potential financing.
While the Fund holds real estate properties, it may rent them on a month-to-month basis. Rental income is considered incidental. Therefore, rental income is recorded as received and no depreciation expense is recorded.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company foreclosed on one property that was related to mortgage loans in the amount of $170,200.
Revenue Recognition
Mortgage interest income on performing loans is recognized as revenue when earned according to the contractual terms of the loan.
Gain or loss on sale of real estate investment is recognized at the time of sale of the asset.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an assert or paid to transfer liability in the principal of most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company determines the fair values of its assets and liabilities based on a fair value hierarchy established under applicable accounting guidance which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. There are 3 levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. The 3 levels are defined as follows:
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. An active
market is a market in which transactions occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2 inputs are those other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the interferences that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability (including assumptions about risk). Unobservable inputs are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances and may include the Company’s own data. All assets are considered Level 3. See Valuation and Process Techniques below.
Valuation Process and Techniques
The Company has various processes and controls in place to ensure that fair value is reasonably estimated. A model validation policy governs the use and control of valuation models used to estimate fair value. Periodic reassessments of the models are performed to ensure that they are continuing to perform as designed.
While the Company believes its valuation methods are the appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of assets and liabilities:
Performing mortgage loans that management intends to hold to maturity are valued at historical cost. Non-performing and impaired mortgage loans are reported at the net realizable value of the underlying collateral based on an observable market price or a current appraised value. Mortgage loans are classified as Level 3.
Real estate investments are fair valued on a quarterly basis when the rehabilitation or development of the asset is close to completion and fair value is determinable. Management determines fair value using valuations or market estimates from third parties. Investments are classified as Level 3. Foreclosed real estate , or real estate owned (“REO”), is reported at the property’s estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell, to the extent fair value does not exceed the asset’s fair value at foreclosure based on its appraised value at the time of foreclosure less subsequent impairments, real estate owned is classified as Level 3.
Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be a partnership under the Internal Revenue Code and a similar section of the state code. The members of a partnership are taxed on their proportionate share of the Company’s taxable income. Therefore, no provision or liability for income taxes has been included in these financial statements.
The Company has evaluated its current tax positions and has concluded that as of June 30, 2020, no significant uncertain tax positions exist for which a reserve would be necessary.
The Company’s income tax returns are subject to review and examination by federal, state and local governmental authorities. As of June 30, 2020, there are 18 months open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and various for state and local governmental authorities. To the extent penalties and interest are incurred through the examinations, they would be included in the accompanying statements of income.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 were $9,746 and $27,794, respectively. These balances are included in General & Administrative Expenses on the statements of income.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Standards Issued but Not Yet Effective
Credit Losses – In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), and was clarified by FASB ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements, and FASB ASUs 2019-05 and 2019-11, Targeted Transition Relief and Clarification. Prior to this pronouncement, generally accepted accounting principles required use of the incurred loss method for recognizing credit losses in the reserve. The incurred loss method recognizes a credit loss when it is probable that a loss has been incurred. The new guidance replaces the incurred loss method with one that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The pronouncement also allows for the irrevocable election of the fair value measurement for certain financial assets. Management is in the process of evaluating this guidance but does not believe it will have a significant impact on the financial statements of the Company. The effective date of FASB ASUs 2018-19 and 2019-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses have deferred the adoptions of these standards until interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Management has not commenced evaluating the impact it will have on the financials statements of the Company.
Fair Value Measurement – In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13 Disclosure Framework (Topic 820) – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.
