A PUBLIC BENEFIT LLC
Rebuilding in the Palisades is not a typical construction project. Families are balancing insurance proceeds, existing financial obligations, temporary housing, changing costs and the question of whether returning home is still possible. Phoenix was created to provide another path when rebuilding independently feels out of reach.
01
PHOENIX FULL PARTNERSHIP
Phoenix helps fund and coordinate the rebuild. You retain ownership of your land and title, while Phoenix arranges project capital and coordinates the team from design through completion. Choose to refinance and stay or sell and share in the profits.
↗
No upfront cash required to fund construction.
↗
Builder compensation, profit sharing, responsibilities, and decision rights agreed upon before construction.
↗
A coordinated team supporting the rebuild from planning through completion.
02
PHOENIX REBUILD ADVANTAGE

↗
Access to vetted builders and negotiated pricing.
↗
Help comparing proposals and aligning the construction budget.
↗
Contracting support to clarify costs, responsibilities, and protections.
AN ILLUSTRATIVE HOMEOWNER EXAMPLE
What could rebuilding mean for your equity?
PATH A · SELL THE COMPLETED HOME

$4.35M
Homeowner profit share, post-expenses

$1.45M
Illustrative partner buyout
~$600 / sq. ft.
Homeowner ownership after buyout
100%
Outcome
Move into a turnkey rebuild on your own land under economics established before construction begins.
Illustrative only—not a valuation, offer or guarantee. Actual lot value, project costs, financing, fees, waterfall, homeowner proceeds and move-back economics vary by property and market conditions. Final governing documents control.
We begin with your Palisades property, your financial position and what your family ultimately hopes to do. You see the proposed costs, responsibilities and possible outcomes before deciding whether to move forward.
01
Understand your property and goals
We review your lot, insurance position, existing obligations, plans and what your family hopes to do after the rebuild.
02
Evaluate the Palisades-specific rebuild economics
We assess the expected construction budget, available capital, likely completed-home value and the financial gap to solve.
03
Agree on responsibilities and protections
You see the proposed funding, fees, decision rights, contingencies and exit paths before deciding whether to proceed.
04
Design, permit and build
Phoenix coordinates the design team, consultants, approvals, builder, reporting and construction through completion.
05
Return home or pursue the agreed sale path
Complete the agreed buyout to return home—or follow the sale path and distribution terms established before construction.
Phoenix works with builders experienced in the quality, architecture, lots and construction demands of Westside residential projects.

Phoenix may be worth exploring if…
✓
You cannot—or do not want to—carry another large construction loan.
✓
You have insurance proceeds, but not enough capital to complete the rebuild.
✓
You want an experienced team to coordinate the financial and execution complexities of rebuilding.
✓
You believe in the Palisades recovery and recognize the potential value of rebuilding rather than selling the vacant lot today.
✓
You may want to return to the completed home and value preserving that option.
✓
You’re considering selling, but offers for your vacant lot are below what you believe your property could be worth.
Another path may be better if…
—
You need substantial immediate liquidity and cannot wait through the rebuild.
—
You have sufficient capital and want complete control over every aspect of the rebuild.
—
The property, existing obligations or anticipated completed value cannot support the proposed structure.
—
You are not comfortable proceeding after independent legal and financial review of the proposed terms.

THE TEAM FOCUSED ON THE PALISADES REBUILD
FAQ
Do I transfer title to Phoenix?
No. The current Phoenix structure is designed so you retain title throughout the rebuild. Phoenix’s funding rights, economics, protections and decision rights are documented in property-specific agreements, which you should review with your own advisors.
How does Phoenix make money?
Can I move back into the completed home?
What if costs rise or the market falls?
Can rebuilding affect insurance benefits or a fire claim?
What if the full partnership is not right for me?
