The final tranche was comprised of two parking facilities in Baltimore and St. Louis, acquired for $4.3 million on September 4, 2013.

The Baltimore property is a 6-story parking garage, located in the downtown Central Business District. The 86,520-square-foot, automated facility is situated beneath a 23-story office building, and is utilized by local area businesses near the city’s harbor.

 Additionally, the 240-parking space facility is surrounded by a number of professional and financial offices, as well as a number of nearby restaurants.

The St. Louis property is an approximately 1.22-acre surface parking lot, located in the heart of the city center. The 55,153-square-foot lot has 179 parking spaces and is accessible by both eastbound and westbound traffic on Spruce Street. 

Located on the western portion of the St. Louis Central Business District, the property is a short distance from Scottrade Center, Busch Stadium, City Hall, the headquarters of the Metropolitan Police Department, and the St. Louis Public Library.

“These centrally-located properties are an ideal fit for the MVP REIT portfolio, and are in keeping with our strategy to acquire income-producing parking and storage facilities that may provide our investors with a potential hedge against inflation,” said Mike Shustek, president and CEO of MVP REIT.

MVP REIT, along with Vestin Realty Mortgage I Inc. (“VRMI”) and Vestin Realty Mortgage II Inc. (“VRMII”), formed two separate limited liability companies to purchase the two parking facilities, which are each owned 44 percent by VRMI, 51 percent by VRMII and 5 percent by MVP REIT. Percentages were based on each party’s capital contributions.
