PROJECT OVERVIEW

The Albia Shopping Center was purchased as part of a reverse 1031 exchange. The property was hit and damaged by a tornado in the summer of 2015, we immediately called the ownership and negotiated an as is deal where the sellers could keep the insurance proceeds. This provided a win win situation, the sellers made off well, and the buyer got a great deal on the property. The buyer has a construction background as was able to repair the property easily. We currently have an Letter of Intent out for the available 24,141 SF and then plan to reassess what to do with the asset after it is fully stabilized.
