“Casa Palmas is our fourth recent acquisition in the Houston metro, with others on the horizon as we continue to see opportunities in specific pockets in the Houston market,” said Javier Bustillo, Senior Vice President of Acquisitions for 29SC.

Pleasant Hill Square in Duluth, GA Listed on Auction.com for $4 Million

  
Chip Sipple
 ATLANTA, GA (Sept. 28, 2015) – Pleasant Hill Square, a 282,137-square-foot power center located in Duluth, Georgia, has been listed on Auction.com and the auction is set to begin on Tuesday, Sept. 29, and end on Wednesday, Sept. 30.

Tony Bartlett and Chip Sipple of Lincoln Property Company Southeast (Lincoln) and Kyle Stonis and Pierce Mayson of SRS are representing the seller.

“The broader Atlanta retail market has been enjoying steady improvement over the past year,” said Tony Bartlett, senior vice president at Lincoln who oversees the Atlanta office.

 “Overall retail vacancy declined to the current rate of 7.7 percent, down from 8.2 percent in the first quarter of this year from previous quarters. The Gwinnett County submarket generally mirrors the broader market improvements with vacancy only slightly behind the overall rate of 8.3 percent, down from 8.8 percent in the first quarter.”


Tony Bartlett
Located at 2205 Pleasant Hill Road, the property is strategically positioned within a significant retail corridor, located just northwest of I-85. Toys ‘R’ Us, Staples and Jo-Ann Fabric & Craft Stores anchor the center, which is 49 percent occupied. 

The center features good visibility with multiple access points from Pleasant Hill Road and provides a strong value-add opportunity.

The property sits within the Gwinnett Community Improvement District (CID), which has been actively engaged in improving the community as of recent. 

In early September, the CID recently released its ACTivate Gwinnett Place master plan, which calls for the redevelopment of Gwinnett Place Mall, with the addition of more green space, and connectivity and transportation improvements.

 The CID is also testing recycled pathways throughout the city, and in August hosted The Gr8 Exchange, fostering conversations among residents about transportation.

David Hogin
CHICAGO, IL, Sept. 28, 2015— Officials of the Hospitality Asset Managers Association (“HAMA”) today announced that their membership remained overwhelmingly upbeat in an informal survey taken at their recent semi-annual Members Meeting.

  More than 130 attendees from six countries met to review best practices and discuss the future of the discipline at the Fairmont Chicago Millennium Park hotel.

“The hotel industry is in the midst of arguably its greatest growth period since STR, Inc. began recording data in the 1980s,” said Dave Hogan, president of HAMA. 

“As an industry, hotels have reached their highest recorded occupancy and rates are approaching historic highs.  Some experts have noted, however, that sales prices are beginning to peak. 

 This phase of the cycle calls for asset managers to continue focusing on optimizing returns.  These regular HAMA meetings provide members with cutting edge research and the opportunity to informally exchange ideas about trends, new techniques and technology.”

MCA Realty Increases its Investment in Las Vegas; Acquires Four Value-Add Industrial Assets


Tyler Mattox
LAS VEGAS, NV (Sept. 28, 2015) – MCA Realty, a full service real estate investment and management company, has increased its investment in Las Vegas with the acquisition of four industrial properties, according to Tyler Mattox, a Principal at MCA Realty.

“The Las Vegas market has demonstrated significant growth over the past 24 months,” says Mattox. 

 “Our firm began acquiring industrial assets in this market in 2011.  At that time, value-add industrial product was plentiful, whereas today, an influx of capital has caused prices to increase and made opportunities more difficult to uncover.”

Mattox explains that investor demand has grown, and that tenant demand has strengthened meaningfully, particularly in smaller spaces under 30,000 square feet. 

“The recovery in Las Vegas, like in much of the nation, was top down, with larger corporations emerging from the recession first.  Smaller companies have just recently joined in the recovery and this is manifest in a reduction in vacancy and an increase in rents across the incubator and mid-bay industrial sector,” he says.

“Our focus continues to be on acquiring industrial assets with long-term value-add potential,” Mattox continues.

With these four recent acquisitions, MCA Realty’s portfolio now encompasses a total of 14 properties and well over 600,000 square feet in Las Vegas.

Faris Lee Investments Completes the Sale of a Jack in the Box Property in Bakersfield, CA at a 3.99% Cap


John Redfield
IRVINE, CA – Faris Lee Investments, a leading retail advisory and investment sales firm, has completed the $1.85 million sale of a 3,734-square-foot single-tenant property that is absolute NNN-leased to a corporate Jack in the Box in Bakersfield, Calif.

John Redfield, Thomas Chichester, and Joseph Chichester of Faris Lee Investments represented the seller, a private investor from Newport Beach, Calif. The buyer was a private investor from Cypress, Calif.  that was seeking a passive property offering investment security.

The sale closed at a cap rate of 3.99 percent, one of the lowest ever recorded for a Jack in the Box-occupied property nationwide.

Located at 3002 Ming Ave., Jack in the Box has been the original tenant since the property was developed nearly 50 years ago. The asset features a large monument sign that is visible to more than 41,000 vehicles on a daily basis.

“The single tenant net leased market is still seeing cap rate compression, especially for well-located, quick serve restaurants featuring corporate name brand tenants like this asset offers. They represent a stable and passive investment for private buyers and family offices that are seeking long-term returns and no landlord responsibilities,” said Tom Chichester.

Chichester added that the property is ideally situated across the street from the successful Valley Plaza Mall, a 1.1 million-square-foot retail center which is the largest and most dominant mall in Central California’s San Joaquin Valley.

Cortland Partners Enters Austin, TX with Acquisition of 308-unit City View Apartments

AUSTIN, TX — Cortland Partners has entered the Austin market with the acquisition of City View Apartments, a 308-unit apartment near the heart of Austin’s CBD.

With Austin’s current and projected rapid employment growth, Atlanta-based Cortland Partners has been seeking the right opportunity to expand its Texas portfolio in this market.

 The company currently has regional offices in both Dallas and Houston and owns 10 apartment communities in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, six in Houston, and three in San Antonio.

According to the Austin Chamber of Commerce, employers added 32,500 net new jobs from June 2014 to June 2015, representing a growth rate of 3.6 percent over 12 months. 

This growth in turn bodes well for the city’s rental housing market. “The Austin market has seen significant demand for new multifamily product during the past five years,” said Steven DeFrancis, CEO of Cortland Partners.

“The city continues to attract new residents, jobs and economic growth, resulting in increased demand and continued low vacancy. Cortland Partners has a unique capability to revitalize current multifamily offerings in the Austin market to better meet this demand.”
