Acquisitions Overview |
|
|
The acquisition of real estate is integral to Equity One’s business plan. Since 1990, the Company has acquired over 15 million square feet of retail space. Equity One offers an efficient due diligence and closing process which is facilitated by our access to capital with established banking relationships with institutional joint venture partners.
Equity One seeks two types of situations to employ it's Acquisition Strategy:
- Stabilized market-dominant grocery anchored properties with supply-side restrictions and strong demographics;
- Value-Added opportunities offering potential near-term revenue enhancements that could result from re-positioning the tenant mix, building expansion space for existing or new tenants and building out pads.
Of particular interest are community and neighborhood grocery anchored shopping centers, which provide daily essential shopping experiences. The first preference is to own the site and all improvements. We will consider any status of leasing or property conditions, as long as the property is well located.
Additionally, Equity One can offer a “down-REIT” which, similar to 1031 exchange, can alleviate the immediate tax gain on sale. |
