B. Financing-side expenses¶
| Date | Counterparty | Description | Amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2025-04-21 | Pinnacle Bank | Bridge term loan principal advanced (60-day, SOFR+2.5%) | $3,500,000.00 disbursed |

| 2025-06-06 | Pinnacle Financial Partners | First month bridge interest ("May payment for short term line of credit") | $19,238.66 |
| 2025-06–07 | Pinnacle | Additional bridge interest + extension fees through July 28 takeout (~37-day extension past June 21 maturity) | OPEN — pull Pinnacle April-July statement |
| 2025-07-10 | Solariage Judicial Scrivener Firm | Mortgage collateral filing — fees ¥91,000 + reg tax ¥3,121,800 + consumption tax ¥9,100 | ¥3,221,900 |
| 2025-07-28 | Tokyo Star Bank | Mortgage origination — ¥780M base advance, USD-denominated outflow @ FX 148.89, wire fee ¥7,000 | ¥780,000,000 advance / ¥7,000 fee |
| 2025 first period (through Oct 31) | TSB | Mortgage interest paid (per R7 corp tax Sched 11) | ¥4,271,110 |
| Origination — TSB application fee, KYC translation, etc. | per Pinnacle/TSB folder docs | TBD — see Sched 5(2) of corp tax: ¥4,352,837 total registration/license tax (incl. Tohyama ¥939,700 ownership reg + Solariage ¥3,120,000 mortgage reg + Tohyama formation ¥63,720 + small amounts) | reconciled |
| Pinnacle bridge total cost to Austin personally (rough) | $3,500 origination legal + ~$19,239 May interest + extension fees + final June-July interest before takeout | ~$50K-60K USD |
The Pinnacle bridge sat on Austin's personal balance sheet (not RFH's, not GK's). When TSB took it out July 28, 2025, the proceeds-to-USD ($5,238,766.88) flowed: - ~$3.55M to Pinnacle bridge payoff (with accrued interest) - ~$1.155M to RFH Brex Primary via Austin → GK 0593 → Primary (the gross-up flow Jul 29-30) - ~$0.5M residual (likely Austin personal)

| 2026-02-09 | Withers Bengoshi Houjin | Invoice 3310-005674 + another | $2,973.00 | — |
Withers totals: ~$11,127 USD net (gross $13,739 less $2,612 refund) across multiple Withers entities (Singapore Khattar Wong, Tokyo Bengoshi Houjin, London Worldwide). Some invoices mention "Mita Garden Hills" explicitly; others are "Renfroe Holdings via Brex" generic. Need invoice-level detail to allocate Mita-specific portion.
Yamashita Law: Only 1 confirmed invoice ($1,808 = ~¥267K at then-FX) — consistent with narrow scope (Mitsui negotiation done by April 2025).
ABS Partners ongoing: ¥506K Yr 1 (FY2025 catch-up) + ~¥553K/yr ongoing.
Kim & Rosado: $19,282 cumulative through Dec 2025; mixed-matter (Mita + RHG + general). Mita-specific portion needs invoice-by-invoice review.

E. Travel costs (Austin's Tokyo trips for Mita-related work)¶
Per Operations/Expenses/:
- 2025-02-28 LAX→TYO flight
- 2025-03-04 to 2025-03-07 — Tokyo Edition hotel (the affidavit + bank-account-opening trip)

These are Austin-personal travel costs but should be tracked for tax-substantiation (US-side: business travel deductible if meeting requirements; or capitalized into property basis for some categories). PDFs are receipts; total $$ value not yet aggregated.
F. Internal RFH ↔ GK loans (RFH-side note receivable)¶
| Loan | Date signed | Principal | Maturity | Rate | At FY-end Oct 31, 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| #1 | 2025-04-22 | ¥836,037,370 | 2025-07-25 | 1% p.a. | ~¥56M residual + interest |

What's missing or unclear¶
- April 8, 2025 GK-as-buyer sales contract — Important Information Manual (April 8 issue) confirms the new contract was concluded that day. The dissolution agreement (April 4) is in the share, but the NEW contract between GK and Mitsui Fudosan + Mitsubishi Estate is NOT visibly separate. Either:
- (a) The April 4 Ownership Change Agreement IS the new contract (substantively replacing the original 2023 contract); OR
-
(b) A separate April 8, 2025 sales contract was executed and isn't in the Synology share — request from Mitsui Realty (Yamamoto-san).
-
Real estate acquisition tax ¥4,130,000 estimated — payment status? This is a one-time tax paid post-delivery to the local Tokyo authority. The R7 corp tax filing's 租税公課 (tax + duty) line shows 登録免許税他 ¥4,352,837 (= ownership reg ¥939,700 + mortgage reg ¥3,120,000 + small misc ¥293K) — this is REGISTRATION tax, distinct from ACQUISITION tax. The 不動産取得税 ¥4.13M assessment notice usually comes 6 months to 1 year after acquisition. Confirm with Shu Endo: has GK received and paid the 不動産取得税 notice yet? If not, it's still an outstanding GK liability.
-
WF 6248 statements May–Sept 2025 — confirm actual deposit-out date for the ¥151,909,800 refund of Austin's original Mita deposit (form filed 2025-03-31, but per Austin actual wire was post-closing). Affects FBAR / FX-gain treatment on Austin's personal return only (not GK's basis).
-
Pinnacle bridge payoff statement — the bridge matured 2025-06-21 but TSB takedown wasn't until 2025-07-28 (37-day gap). Either Austin paid extension fees + ~37 days additional interest OR temporarily paid down from another source. Pull Pinnacle April-July 2025 statements to confirm payoff date, total payoff amount, and source.
-
Pinnacle April 2025 account statement — to identify the source(s) of the ~$1.12M USD (above the $3.5M bridge) that funded Wire 3. Likely Black Saddle PFS at Pinnacle wealth-management. Austin-personal-ledger question; doesn't change GK's basis.
-
Jana Renfroe $350K wire (2025-07-23) substance — CLOSED 2026-05-09: confirmed by Austin as a loan from his parents (Eugene + Jana Renfroe joint account). Second intrafamily loan from his parents, parallel to the existing AFR loan funding Five Points BHM. Loan #2 (RFH-LLC → GK ¥50M, 2025-07-24, 1% p.a.) papers the GK-side leg. The parents → Austin/RFH leg needs its own AFR-compliant promissory note (Stuart Memory was looking for the Five Points note Sep 2025; same posture applies here — separate Mita-related note). New ask for Austin/Stuart: locate or draft the promissory note for the parents → Austin Mita loan; confirm AFR rate, term, and whether it's joint or individual to Jana. Pearce treatment: real intrafamily loan with §7872 / AFR / 1099-INT compliance, mirroring Five Points. →
todo/for-austin.md -
2025-09-22 "三田PM1009 ブランクプレート" repair invoice — small repair, vendor unknown.
-
Operations/Expenses items missing aggregate accounting — the receipts are there (Tokyo Edition hotels, LAX-TYO/TYO-SEA flights, Mesm Tokyo, Tokyo Hilton, Embassy fee, etc.) but a roll-up by trip / by date isn't in the repo. These are Austin-personal travel costs but could matter for capitalization or business-travel deductibility.
-
Withers invoice-level allocation — multiple Withers entities (Khattar Wong Singapore, Bengoshi Houjin Tokyo, Withersworldwide LLP). Some invoices explicitly mention "Mita Garden Hills" (e.g., Inv 3310-005184). Need invoice-by-invoice allocation between Mita-acquisition matters, GK general matters, and other (Hyperrealms / Gilette / Rodrigo Ponce de Leon).
-
Kim & Rosado invoice-level allocation — $19,282 cumulative through Dec 2025 across 8 invoices. Some specifically billed to "Renfroe Holdings via Brex" — generic. Mita-specific portion needs invoice review (
Business/Renfroe Family Holdings/Expenses/Kim and Rosado/folder). -
HOA monthly bills — Mita Garden Hills HOA at ¥354,880/month. June 2025 HOA bill is in
Operations/Expenses/2025.06 HOA.pdfbut ongoing months aren't in this folder (likely auto-debited from TSB). -
TSB statement reconciliation — GK's R7 corp tax shows ¥52,475,148 in TSB at FY-end. TSB monthly statements should be in the share but I don't see a
Bank Account Informationsubfolder for monthly statements specifically — only account-opening docs. Pull TSB Aug-Oct 2025 + Nov 2025 onward monthly statements to fully reconcile cash flow. -
Yuriko Kato departure paperwork (substantive) — partial closure: the 2025-08-22 Legal Affairs Bureau acknowledgment is in the share. But the underlying retirement agreement / member-resolution that triggered the registration isn't separately filed. Check Templates/ folder —
2025.03.04 Board Minutes and Resolution to Transfer Ownership to Renfroe Holdings GK Templatecovers Austin's retirement; a parallel doc for Yuriko's August retirement may exist as a separate agreement. -
Austin's $815,936 RENFROE shareholder loan repayment — confirmed in repo as Mita-funding-related (per
decisions/log.md2026-04-20 entry: "RENFROE loaned Austin to help pay for Mita Garden Hills 1009"). The Brex Primary outflow memo'd "Repayment of RENFROE Shareholder loans" was for ~$815K. The MATCHING inflow to RFH/Austin from RENFROE — the original RENFROE → Austin loan disbursement — is NOT visible in this Synology share (would be in RENFROE's books, out of scope here). Pearce will need to handle the RENFROE-side treatment.
