信託から物件を借り、運営する関連会社。手数料、「パートナーシップ費用」、物件管理請求はこの層を通る。約 $1.6–2M の 4th & J 数字はここに座る。

Vintage PPM(2022 年 1 月 11 日)は Book and Ladder, LLC を物件管理者とし、総額の 2.5%。PPM はスポンサーの経営陣が 2020 年に店を作ったと書く。その取引の資産管理者は Versity Investments であり、Book & Ladder ではない。

同日の Vintage PMA(2022 年 4 月 12 日)は Monthly Gross Revenues の 2.5%、独占、加えて四半期 NOI インセンティブ。PMA §6.8 Asset Manager は Versity Invest であり、Versity Investments ではない。Walk(2022 年 4 月 29 日)は 3%。Hayworth(2022 年 6 月 30 日)と One on 4th(2022 年 7 月 26 日)は 2.5%。4 件ともカリフォルニア法、1 年自動更新、Versity Invest を第三者受益者 Asset Manager とする。Tanya Muro は Hayworth PMA の両側に署名した。

確認された 2025 年 11 月 26 日 JAMS 判断は議決持分を Wettengel 34% / Nelson 33% / Muro 33% と認定する。Nelson は Book & Ladder 自身の財務では 1/3 マネージャーとして否決され得る。Versity Investments の 65% 所有者として、Versity/NBPRE 物件に Book & Ladder を残すかを決められる。Nelson の承認なしに Book & Ladder は NBPRE または Versity の運営口座から出金できない。Nelson は Book & Ladder が別に持つ口座について閲覧のみである。
