financial summary

We will identify build to suit, triple net leased opportunities in the fast food and casual fast food industries.

 

Once a location is identified for one of these opportunities, we will enter into a lease with each tenant. Lease terms will vary based on location, but typically the leases shall be 15 to 20 years in length. We anticipate rental rates shall achieve a return on investment (ROI) of between 8% and 9% on a cash basis. Once we have a signed lease, we commence construction of the building, which is expected to take 6 - 9 months to complete. While we are under construction we will begin marketing this investment property for sale. Once again sale prices will vary, however current market conditions indicate that sales price cap rates range from 5%to 6%.  We are planning to build three to five buildings in a 12 to 18 month period.  We want to raise a minimum of $5.5mm and a maximum of $9mm so that we can take advantage of slightly larger than average properties if possible as they are more profitable.

 

The above Plan is based on current market conditions, and the current demand for these type investments. We have identified several possible tenants as well as several possible buyers for these type leases.

 

Industry Summary:

 

Opportunities: A number of companies are seeking to expand their presence in the Casual Fast Food and Fast Food area including but not limited to, Panera Bread, Arby’s, Church’s, Popeye’s and KFC.

 

The main interest is tenants can obtain good locations without any need to acquire the real estate or having to deal with the building risk, which is not their business.  Due to the small size of most of these buildings (from 1700 to 5000), large developers and builders are not interested in bidding on the business, leaving smaller developers with experience a very profitable opportunity, and the associated Investors are able to earn reliable returns from a stable retail use.
