Client: Food Processing Owner and Operator with Real Estate Holdings
Service: Advisory Service on a 1031 Exchange
Granite Capital Group (GCG) was engaged to provide 1031 replacement property and asset management advisory services. GCG provided appropriate analyses of identified 1031 Replacement Properties for our Client’s consideration and approval based on a detailed investment criteria, including cash flow projections over 3, 5- and 10- year holding periods, exit strategies, capital and loan structuring, and prospective renovations to any Replacement Property in order to enhance performance.
GCG presented well over a hundred viable property options in all targeted asset types across the US, with a geographical focus on Denver, Fort Collins, CO Springs, Dallas, Seattle, Phoenix, Salt Lake City, and Southern California.
