EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY
4
Mass urbanization has become increasingly prominent in today’s day
in age and like many trends, there are both positive and negative
externalities associated with this movement. While many individuals
are attracted to the all-encompassing urban landscape, many find that
the negative factors of big-city living, far outweigh the positive
factors. The outlying regions of major metropolitan areas usually offer
an array of different amenities, a slower pace, generally a safer
environment, and a greater sense of community. These traits are
exactly what makes Northeasternville a desirable place to live.
The investment opportunity in question, is a mixed-use asset in the
small town of Northeasternville, which is located approximately 35-40
minutes outside of New York City. Northeasternville has a bolstering
economy and is expecting continued growth throughout the coming
years. Moreover, the city has been funneling money into renovating
and revitalizing community amenities to further the intended
expansion efforts. The town is situated around the rapid rail system
(Strange Urban Railroad) which connects Northeasternville to NYC,
simplifying the commute and ensuring accessibility to all residents.
The ownership group will likely have opportunities to dispose of this
asset given the potential influx of investors seeking lucrative
investment opportunities in the areas surrounding NYC.

MARKET AND PROPERTY
OVERVIEW

Northeasternville is located in Golden County, which has a total population of 1.5 million
people. Northeasternville lies 20 miles outside of New York, New York and is
approximately a 30-45 minute train ride from the cities center. Specifically,
Northeasternville has a population of 15,000 people and density of 6,500 people per square
mile, which is much lower than Golden County averages.

MARKET OVERVIEW
In recent years, Northeasternville has seen positive growth and has become an increasingly
popular city with several million dollars in new funds being put to use to revitalize the
town. These funds will be used to improve downtown Northeasternville, represent a
diverse community and improve public transportation to large cities. Northeasternville is
currently experiencing a large demographic shift with the older generation downsizing and
millennials purchasing properties near the downtown area. The demand for housing close
to the downtown area is leading to residential houses being sold at a much higher cost than
normal regional rates. As a result of this heightened demand, both multifamily
developments and single family homes near the downtown area are appreciating.

SURR
One big addition to Northeasternville is the construction of
the Strange Urban Railroad (SURR). This railroad will allow
for transportation from Northeasternville to NYC as well as
transportation through Golden County with connecting
buses also being available. With 50% of Golden County’s
population commuting to NYC, the SURR allows for a
realistic and timely commute for these residents.

Unemployment
Northeasternville has experienced a 5% unemployment rate
over the past 12 months which is 1% greater than the
current US rate. This rate is subject to increase with rumors
of an international fabric company returning to its original
country. If this happens, we expect to see the
unemployment rate increase by 10 to 50 basis points.

Office Market
Northeasternville has seen a decrease in new
office development in recent years. The
vacancy rate for the Northeasternville office
market is around 5% with many mixed-use
projects in Downtown Northeasternville
boasting a 0% vacancy rate. The office market
is rich with small, local, and entrepreneurial
businesses. Asking rents for office range from
$25 to $30 per square foot for five to ten year
lease terms and are typically full-service.

Property Details
The ½ acre subject property is located at the
intersection of Main Street and Railroad Avenue in the
ever-growing city of Northeasternville in Golden
County. The building was constructed five years ago,
and consists of ground-floor retail shops and two
stories of office space above, totaling nine units. The
property is in an ideal location, situated roughly two
blocks from the rail station, which is frequented by
commuters that travel between Northeasternville and
New York City. The property is also near other local
retailers, town amenities and multifamily complexes,
which insinuates that the property is subject to ample
foot traffic on a daily basis.

There are some evident

as some of the leases
technically began prior to the

PROPERTY OVERVIEW
Tenants
Retail tenants include a bank branch, fine jeweler and fast food. Office tenants consist of
various firms such as travel agencies, life insurance, retirement and financial services as seen
below. The tenant mix is fairly diversified which should act as assurance to the landlord that
no singular industry has a strong hold within the building and will greatly affect building
occupancy if there are industry disruptions. Ideally, a mix as such will be maintained if the
building is decidedly bought and held as an asset.

Leases
There are a variety of different in-place leases that affect the overall NOI. Some of the leases
are 5 year whereas some are 10 year. The retail leases are all on a NNN basis, meaning
operating expenses are recoverable and the office leases are on a full service basis, whereas
the landlord does not recover expenses associated with the spaces that the office tenants
occupy. The expiration dates of these leases vary, though some leases expire at the same
time, meaning additional expenses will be incurred by the landlord.

MARKET RESEARCH
Baldwin, NY
Baldwin, NY offers great comparable demographics and affordable housing prices similar
to those of Northeasternville. With a slightly larger population of roughly 25,000 people,
Baldwin has experienced a two percent growth in median household income and a one
percent YOY growth in median property value at $356,300. Baldwin supports 11.8%
population by occupation working within retail trade, offering strong comparable data for
the retail market in Northeasternville. The job market has also increased 0.9% over the last
year. Similar to Northeasternville, Baldwin is home to a plethora of shopping malls and
retail centers making it an attractive comparable. The current unemployment rate in
Baldwin is also near equivalent to that of Northeasternville at 4%. Nassau County which
includes Baldwin has an estimated population of 1.36 million in relation to Golden
County’s 1.5 million. Moody’s Analytics is forecasting an economic growth pattern for
Nassau County in 2019. They expect positive, but slower economic growth in 2019 when
compared to 2018 which bears great economic news as comparable data for
Northeasternville.

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
It has been 10 years since we dug ourselves out of the 2008 recession and today the economy is
as good as it has ever been. If this current economic expansion continues beyond Q2 of 2019, it
will be the first time since 1857 the United States hasn’t experienced a recession in a decade.
But, as we near this economic milestone, interest rates are being raised by the FED and some
say the probability of an economic disruption is as high as it was since before the Great
Recession. According to the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER), recessions are less
frequent but more severe, so this bodes the question if we are on the brink of another disaster.
The question isn’t whether the economy will turn down, but rather how extreme it will be.
Economic downturns are inevitable and actually a healthy part of the economic cycle.
Historically, the average length of a growing economy is 3.2 years, while a recession lasts 1.5
years on average.
Research
According to a report from Wells
Fargo Securities Economics Group, at
the end of 2018 the CRE market is
fairly solid and the National Banking
system in not overexposed to
Commercial Mortgages. As of today,
we are at an all time high of
outstanding commercial mortgages,
totaling $2.8 Trillion. While this may
lead some to believe that banks are
indeed overexposed, with the addition
of residential mortgages, banks are
almost $3 Trillion less exposed than 2008. Past economic troughs and peaks: Source, Goldman Sachs

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
Effects on Real Estate
We are also able to look specifically into the Office and Retail market via a report from
Cushman and Wakefield that highlights the strength and weaknesses of these markets entering
into 2019. Starting with Office, the last quarter of 2018 produced the largest number of job gains
compared to the previous 3 quarters of 2018. Due to this increase, we saw net absorption nearly
double and reach an all time high since 2015. Also in the last quarter of 2018 demand for office
spaces outweighed the supply, causing vacancy rates to drop. In the 3 quarters prior we saw
vacancy rates remain relatively flat so this bodes well for the economy. Finally with massive
Tech growth, rise in number of REITS, and high construction rates Cushman and Wakefield
expects the U.S. office market to continue balanced growth. (Cushman Wakefield, 2018)
One big concern for the economy is the fear that increasing interest rates will lead to an
increase in cap rates. Yet, since the Fed has increased interest rates, cap rates have remained
low and it is anticipated that when they do start to rise, they will be offset by rising occupancy
and higher rents. Another factor that should limit and delay an economic downturn is the
current tax reform that benefits the CRE industry. This tax reform will boost property owners
revenue growth as well as create newly established “opportunity zones” and 1031 like kind
transfers. These changes in our tax system will attract additional capital into the industry,
bolster property prices, and apply downward pressure on cap rates.

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
After reviewing and analyzing many economic reports we believe that the economy will
experience a slight downturn, entering a normal recession, within the next 2 to 3 years. Even
though the current CRE economic outlook looks stable, due to an unknown political
environment, the FED raising interest rates and our economy being in the largest upswing in
history, we see this slowing in the next couple years. While we believe a downturn is
expected in the coming years, the economic recession will be brief, following historical trends
and the economy will recover within 1 to 2 years.
As for the current condition and outlook of the retail market, specifically in the New York
area, sales increased by 6.3% and are projected to grow by 4.3% in 2019. On the downside,
retail leasing pace slowed and asking rents have declined in all submarkets around NYC ,
but overall deal volume is still up 10%. Despite this, Cushman and Wakefield is
optimistic for 2019 with most experts believing retail submarkets have hit “bottom” and
with New York being the epicenter of retail, the market should regain momentum in
2019.

SCENARIOS
19
AR G US CH A LLE NGE
SCENARIO A
Scenario Details
Holding Period
For Scenario A, we are utilizing a 10-year holding period, given
that we are predicting the impending economic downturn to strike
in roughly 2-3 years from present day. This will allow our clients
to hold past the projected downturn and retain the cash flows
throughout the holding period.
Invest in the subject property and hold until market improves before selling at a profit.
Cap Rate: Purchase
Cap rates for similar mixed-use buildings within the market are
between 9.5%-11%. The reason we chose a slightly higher cap, is
because within 3 months of our estimated purchase date
(September, 2019), 2 of the tenant’s leases will be expiring,
meaning there is the possibility that the building will be 21%
vacant within months of purchasing. Moreover, we believe it is fair
to negotiate a higher cap because of the inconsistency between
actual construction date of the building( 9 years ago) and given
construction date (5 years ago).
Cap Rate: Sale
The anticipated cap rate upon sale is lower than cap rate upon
purchase, because we are assuming that developable lots in the
downtown area will not be in abundance in 10 years. This will
cause the market to shift in order to accommodate the altered
supply of centrally located real estate in Northeasternville. We are
also assuming the building will be fully leased upon sale.
20
Economic Projection
We have projected that the impending economic downturn will occur in 2-3 years, meaning
that the economy will enter into a trough between 2021-2022. We believe that the economy
will only fluctuate 5-10%, which should not cause too much distress to the overall returns
on the asset, but we have accounted for this and modeled Scenario A with much more
conservative numbers in regards to renewal rates, vacancy rates, etc.
AR G US CH A LLE NGE
SCENARIO A
Special Considerations
Invest in the subject property and hold until market improves before selling at a profit.
Parking
The building is situated on a 1/2 acre parcel (21,780 SF) and the building footprint is just
roughly 4,600 SF meaning that there is approximately 17,180 SF that has not been
developed. We have assumed that there are 3 parking spaces allotted per 1,000 SF of built
space (total building area 13,835 SF). Per each parking space, we have assumed a number of
300 SF, which covers the individual stall and the associated common lanes throughout the
lot. Given the building square footage and the assumed parking requirements, in order to
meet said parking requirements, the subject property would have to have a parking lot that
is roughly 12,500 SF in size. Currently, the subject property meets these requirements, but
this is something to consider when looking into improvements, and/or redevelopment
opportunities.
21
Redevelopment Risk
The subject property is ideally located at the epicenter of Northeasternville, which has
been undergoing massive redevelopment efforts to revitalize the downtown area and
public amenities. When looking at the asset, we considered the building’s highest and best
use, all the while taking into account the public’s wants and needs within the town. We
agreed that the building could surely be redeveloped into a larger project that would fit the
city’s needs of improved multi-family housing, would develop upon the unique cultural
background of the town and play into the diverse consumer demographics in the area.
Though there is potential to redevelop, we think it unwise to immediately invest in a
planned redevelopment. With the stringent parking requirements, it would likely be
necessary to build out a parking structure, or receive approval from the city to not meet the
minimum parking requirements—both of these options would be costly and timely. Also if
redevelopment were to occur, the project would be underway during the anticipated
economic turbulence, which would cause for additional stress. Overall the CP
Development Team does not feel confident that the returns would exceed the risks.
We also considered the possibility of subdividing the lot and selling each plot separately to
maximize profits (one parcel being completely undeveloped). This option would be ideal if
the parking requirements were not as prohibitive.

Special Considerations

22
AR G US CH A LLE NGE
SCENARIO A
Plan Overview
The CP Development team has decided that the best course of
action for scenario A would be to buy and hold the subject
property for 10 years. While holding the property we advise that
the ownership group works closely with city officials to entitle
the site for a larger mixed use building that includes, office, multi
-family and retail. We advise this course of action because the
demand for centrally located real estate in Northeasternville is
increasing, and is anticipated to continually increase throughout
the hold period. Upon disposition, the supply of downtown real
estate will be minimal which will drive up real estate prices. We
believe that entitling the site prior to sale, will incentivize
developers that are interested in entering into the market to
purchase the property at a lower cap rate, in turn, increasing
overall return on the asset. We do not believe that it would be
wise for an investor that does not have substantial capital
backing to undertake an overall redevelopment project, as it
would require a large initial investment to redevelop the
property and a considerable amount of time to entitle it. At this
moment in time, we believe that for our client, redevelopment is
far too risky and the associated returns on the investment would
not be enough to assume the affiliated risk.

Negotiate lower

Office
We believe office space will be crucial to the success of the
project because office space is currently grossing the highest
rents per SF in Northeasternville. The vacancy for office space in
the neighboring Manhattan city was at an all time low in Q4
2018. We believe this demand for office space will stem from the
population increase and millennials desire to live near where
they work.
Multifamily
With the influx of new people moving into Northeasternville,
multifamily housing development will subsequently need to
increase to accommodate this shift. Given the site’s proximity to
both the Rail system and downtown, this location would be
ideal for millennials looking to get away from the busy life of
downtown NY but also enjoy similar amenities.
Retail
Retail will be developed to compliment the office space and
apartments. Retails will offer residents and employees a place to
grab lunch and groceries. This will also create unity within the
development; as residents, employees, and members of the
community gather for to interact with on another. Also, business
owners will be able to capitalize on the traffic from Main St. and
nearby public transportation.

ARGUS CHALLENG E
SCENARIO B
Scenario Details
Holding Period
For Scenario B, we are utilizing a hold period of 1.5 years, which
will bring us right up the brink of the expected economic
downturn. This timeline does have some flaws affiliated, as the
building will not be fully leased during the time of disposition,
though this will not greatly affect the overall return.
Invest in the subject property, make improvements to upgrade the building,
and sell at a profit before market downturn.
Cap Rate: Purchase
Cap rates for similar mixed-use buildings within the market are
between 9.5%-11%. We have chosen to utilize the same going in
cap rate for both scenarios, due to the comparable cap rates within
the market, the aforementioned potential vacancies and the
inconsistent information regarding the buildings actual
construction date.
Cap Rate: Sale
We have chosen a lower cap rate due to the capital improvements
that we suggest ownership makes in the allotted hold period. These
improvements should cause the asset to appreciate in value and
become more desirable for prospective tenants, which will allow for
rental increases in future years.
25
Economic Projection
Scenario B accelerates the investment
timeline quite a bit in comparison to
Scenario A. In Scenario B we are assuming
the same potential economic turbulence to
occur in 2-3 years, though in this scenario,
the asset will not be held through the
downturn, it will be sold right before,
which makes this option even more risky. If
the downturn happens prior to the set
disposition date, then the ownership will
experience a lower return and will likely
have a more difficult time selling the
building. This also prohibits the amount of
renovations that can occur, given that
everything would have to be completed in
roughly 6-12 months so that there would
still be an adequate amount of time to
market the building for resale.
AR G US CH A LLE NGE
SCENARIO B
Special Considerations Invest in the subject property, make improvements to upgrade the building,
and sell at a profit before market downturn.
Building Upgrades
The building is fairly new (regardless if it
was built 5 years ago or 9 years ago) and is
in no need of major renovations. In order
to maximize profits, we suggest upgrading
the exterior of the building and adding
modern finishes that enhance the
building’s aesthetic appeal. This would
align with the city’s efforts to revamp the
downtown area, without requiring the
ownership to fully redevelop the building
or make any major and costly
improvements. This also would not take
years to carry out, and would cause
minimal disturbance to the tenants.
Interior renovations could be problematic,
as these renovations would have to occur
while the building is leased up,
considering the stringent timeline.
26
AR G US CH A LLE NGE
SCENARIO B
Plan Overview
In regards to this scenario, we feel
that a $100,000 investment, will be
more than enough to make exterior
improvements to the building.
With this $100,000 we believe that
the building could be repainted,
modern fixtures could be added
(i.e. lights, building signage, doors,
etc.) and common area landscaping
throughout the property could be
improved. With these additional
features, the building is bound to
be more desirable. With low
vacancy rates throughout the town,
it is highly likely that whoever
acquires this building after these
renovations, could justifiably raise
the rents above market rates.

Decline Scenario C

However, we ultimately think the property is
worth acquiring because it is trading at an 11%

the local economy continues to improve we are
confident that we will keep vacancy at a
minimum. Overall this project poses limited
downside with huge upside, so the project should

Market Shift
Research shows that the current market
for investment real estate will likely
shift to a buyer’s market throughout
2019. (CBRE Research, 2018) Because
the projected purchase date falls within
2019, and the cap rates within the area
are surprisingly high, it seems as
though this is a fairly stable, passive
investment opportunity . If the market
did experience a drastic shift that did
not support purchasing this asset, then
we would advise against the
investment. Although, very few
economists are predicting radical
changes in real estate prices, so there
are few foreseeable downsides to this
investment in terms of the overall CRE
market.

lease abstracts. This simplifies the anticipated tenant rollover that will occur upon lease
expiration, but will also affect the expenses incurred during the period of vacancy and/or
option. Ultimately, we do not anticipate that this modeling strategy will greatly affect how
much rollover risk exists throughout the hold period. All leases have been modeled with
options to extend past the hold period, and associated renewal rates defined in market leasing
profiles, per each scenario.

Visionary Vanguard and Stark Bank & Trust are the first tenants with leases that will expire
during the holding period in both Scenario A and B. Upon expiration, the tenants will have
the option to extend. If the tenants choose to exercise their option to extend, the rents will be
adjusted back to market rates, which are defined in the market leasing assumptions in each
respective scenario.

Market Leasing Assumptions
In comparison to our Scenario B, we have utilized more conservative numbers to reflect
the potential effects of the anticipated economic downturn which we are assuming will
occur in approximately 2-3 years. Each tenant has been modeled with options to extend
past the hold period, and the probability of renewal coincides with market demand for
that space type and the particular lease types that are coming due during the economic
downturn.
Invest in the subject property and hold until market improves before selling at a profit.

ASSUMPTIONS
Market Leasing Assumptions
The market leasing assumptions made in Scenario B are less conservative, as the property
will not be held throughout the market downturn—vacancy rates, and renewal rates are
not as volatile. We have also assumed higher renewal probabilities on leases types that
would be expiring during the downturn, as ownership would not be exposed to this risk.
Invest in the subject property, make improvements to upgrade the building,
and sell at a profit before market downturn.

Expenses
Operating Expenses
The landlord has the ability to recover tenant reimbursements from all tenants that are signed
to a NNN lease. These expenses include insurance, utilities & heat, common area
maintenance, management & leasing, legal & professional and real estate taxes. The numbers
listed below express the accumulated recoverable expense per square foot on an annual basis.
However, the office tenants are not obligated to pay additional fees towards incurred
expenses, as they are signed to full service leases. In regards to the full service leases, there is
generally an associated recoverable fee for building operating expenses that is determined by
your pro rata share of the building, though in this case, we will omit the associated fee due to
a lack of historical expense data.

Real Estate Taxes $ / Rentable Area $ 9.25

Op. Ex. Adjustments
The operating expenses are adjusting on a yearly basis in line with the expense inflation rate
which is set at 3% annually. We believe that this will accurately reflect the anticipated
expenses throughout the duration of the hold periods.

Expenses
Capital Expenditure
Capital expenditure costs are not recoverable and are considered the sole responsibility of
the landlord. These costs include structural repairs & maintenance, capital reserves and any
other planned capital expenditures to improve the building. The costs listed in the table
below represent the capital expense costs per square foot on an annual basis. Similar to the
operating expenses, the capital expenses are being adjusted on a yearly basis by the expense
inflation rate, which is set at 3%.
Capital Improvements
In Scenario A, we have not allocated any additional
funds to be spent on building improvements, aside from
the predetermined amounts for reserves and building
upkeep. In Scenario B, we have included a one time
payment of $100,000 to upgrade the building’s exterior.
This payment will not adjust accordingly, as it is not
recurring.

IRR Levered 17.63% 14.89%
As can be seen in the above chart, scenario A returns substantially higher proceeds from
sale than scenario B does. This could be attributed to a few factors. One, being that a
portion of the loan is paid off throughout the hold period which is increasing the
ownership’s equity within the project while decreasing the outstanding debt to pay off.
Another reason that the Scenario A proceeds are considerably larger is because of the
inflated value of money. The proceeds from sale, in reversion, would showcase a smaller
gap between the two scenarios.
Proceeds from Sale
IRR and PV
Scenario A is returning higher IRR’s meaning that the overall yield of the asset during the
given time span is higher.

FINAL
RECOMMEDATION
38
Scenario A not only has a higher resale rate, but a
higher overall yield. Scenario B, on the other hand,
has a lot of associated risk and revolves around a
very strict timeline that leaves little room for error.
Even with adjustments to the overall rate of renewal
and accounting for market inconsistencies that may
arise due to holding through an economic downturn,
Scenario A still boasts better returns and seems like
the safer option. Moreover, it has been noted that
investors are actively seeking investment
opportunities near outlying regions of major cities.
Given Northeasternville’s proximity to New York
City, we can reasonably assume that the property
value within the town will appreciate over the years.
Overall, option B still does allow for quicker cash,
and there may be some upside to a quick
acquisition/disposition turn- around, but we prefer
to advise our clients with risks, returns and minimal
stress in mind.
