Opportunity Summary

This investment is a 8.51-acre heavy industrial zoned parcel with a +/-273,183 SF multi-tenant building split into suites housing 18 tenants. We are purchasing this property at an incredible basis of just below $59/SF.

All suites have significantly below market rents.  The average lease rate in the building is $.34/SF/month gross. We see the opportunity to reposition the property by brining rents to market on suites with leases turning over and then exit for a significant profit. The tenant demand for infill industrial properties with smaller suites greatly exceeds available supply in the Phoenix metro, and there is limited new inventory being developed within this submarket due to lack of available developable land. We anticipate strong interest in lease up and renewals at the market rental rates.

The supply/demand imbalance coupled with the significantly below market rents make this property a tremendous investment opportunity for us and our partners.

Minimum Investment $50,000

Business Plan

29th Drive Multi-Tenant Industrial

2901 N 29th Dr. Phoenix, AZ

We are purchasing this property at an incredible basis, just below $59/SF. We are seeing comparable properties in this area trading well in excess of $90/SF. In addition to purchasing at a strong basis, the existing tenants all have significantly below market rents. The average lease rate in the building is $.34/SF/month gross. We are seeing gross leases in the area being signed well in excess of $.60/SF/month.

10 of the 18 leases in place roll within the first 12 months of owning the building. This presents an opportunity to bring approximately 53% of the building to market rents, stabilizing the property and generating significant positive cashflow after year 1. We have budgeted $525,000 for leasing fees and tenant infill work. Although, there should be limited infill work required in order to lease these suites at the rate we are underwriting to, given that the rate is competitive for the space in it’s existing condition. We have also accounted for an excessive amount of vacancy across all of the suites with turnover in order to ensure our underwriting is conservative, although we anticipate a significant number of existing tenants deciding to stay at the property with the increased lease rate given limited alternative options for new space in the area combined with costs associated with moving.

We see the opportunity to reposition the property by brining rents to market on suites with leases turning over and then exit for a significant profit.

Market Analysis

Metro Phoenix at a Glance

Greater Phoenix’s population is increasing at an average annual rate of 2.0% with 480,300 new residents arriving over the last five years. This trajectory will likely continue with an additional 490,030 residents, or a 9.8% increase, added to the Phoenix metro area for a total population of over 5.51 million by 2024. The underlying macroeconomic fundamentals and trends support record industrial construction in the Phoenix metro.

The Phoenix market continues to outpace other metros on market fundamentals – job growth, population, and affordability. These fundamentals will continue to draw users from outside of the metro as well as market expansions with nearly 12 million users currently looking for space in the Phoenix market. CBRE recently released a report showing rent growth projections over the next five years, and the Phoenix metro is anticipated to experience 37.2% rent growth in the Industrial sector.

Net Absorption of Industrial

A record-breaking start to 2021 continued in the second quarter for the Phoenix Industrial market. A reported net absorption of 6.3M SF was the highest recorded since 2013. In Q2 of 2021, 3.2M SF of industrial product delivered in the Phoenix market consisting of 13 buildings. Out of all construction deliveries in the quarter, 81.2% were committed to at the time of delivery. The pace of deliveries is keeping up with the rapid net absorption across the Valley. Currently, 20.9M SF of industrial space is underway across the Phoenix market totaling 79 buildings. Construction is heavily concentrated in the Southwest Valley due to the availability and affordability of land as well as freeway access. This market area accounts for 15.1M SF, or 72.2% of product under construction.

Industrial Vacancy

Vacancy dropped to 4.7%, the lowest recorded in the Phoenix area to date. Strong market fundamentals and out-of-state users continue to push the industrial sector to levels not previously seen.

Returns Overview

Underwriting Scenarios

We conservatively underwrite all of our projects in an attempt to under promise and overdeliver. We also compare our conservative underwriting to three different scenarios. The first scenario, the 20-Year Avg. Growth model, incorporates the average annual rent growth and cap rate compression that has occurred over the last 20 years in Metro Phoenix for each year of the investment period.

The second scenario, the Last Year Growth model, incorporates the average annual rent growth and cap rate compression that has occurred over the last year in Metro Phoenix for each year of the investment period. The third and final scenario, the Great Recession model, demonstrates how the asset would have performed if the Great Recession started the day after we closed and continued its downward trend during the investment period, which includes cap rate expansion, decrease in market rental rates, and 12 months of vacancy.

Underwriting Assumptions

  • Replacement Rental Rate: $.55/SF/Month Gross
  • Suite Vacancy at Turnover: 4 months
  • Exit Cap Rate: 5.75
  • Sale $/SF: $76.98
  • Deal Time Horizon: 1 Year
