US Hwy 19

Acquired: 30/09/2014

Sold: 17/05/2018

Address: 18538 – 18562 U.S. Highway 19, Clearwater, FL, 33764

US19 is the main arterial road that runs north-south through Pinellas Park and Clearwater (Tampa Bay Area).

This property previously had very good frontage to US19, but a major road construction project to create a flyover to eliminate an intersection (see far right image above) has decreased both its accessibility and visibility from the road, as access is now only possible via an off ramp.

Nonetheless, the position is still desirable but the usage has changed from mainly retail to mainly industrial, and hence the possible rents have fallen too. Furthermore, it may be difficult to fully stabilise the site until the disruption from the construction ends (estimated to be mid 2015).

Sold: 02/10/2019

This property is across the street from 1221 SE 9th Terrace, Cape Coral. It was acquired as a ‘For Sale By Owner’ from an out of town vendor who wanted a quick sale.

That said, rental demand in the area is strong as that part of Cape Coral has a very small commercial / industrial property district, and the Fund’s property managers are very confident that they can lease up the space within six months.

Although there are a variety of street addresses, the premises is in fact a single building that was constructed in circa 1979, but with additions and improvements as needed over the years (including a new roof in 2004).

2621 NE 9th Ave

Acquired: 27/06/2014

Sold: 20/07/2020

Address: 2621 NE 9th Avenue Cape Coral, FL, 33909

As the Florida property market continues to improve, it is becoming harder and harder to find industrial commercial property at less than $40 per square foot.

When properties are found, the yields are a little on the low side as prices have risen however existing rents under inherited leases are often lower than current market as they were negotiated in less optimistic economic times.

This property fits this profile well. At $36.11 per square foot it represents value buying, yet the at-acquisition yield is only 7.44%. If rents on renewal are able to be reset to market the yield is forecast to increase to 10.55%.
