Retail Properties: Strategic Investments for Short-Term Gains
At Wedgewood Capital Partners, our approach to retail property investments is designed to identify and acquire assets with substantial value-add potential. By focusing on specific criteria, we ensure that each acquisition aligns with our commitment to delivering exceptional investment outcomes for our clients.
Why Retail Properties?
Retail properties offer unique investment opportunities, particularly in high-demand sectors such as quick service restaurants (QSRs), auto parts stores, and dollar stores. These properties are often located in vibrant trade areas with substantial foot traffic and consumer demand. Additionally, multi-tenant properties with partial vacancies present significant upside potential through strategic leasing and property enhancements.
Our Criteria for Retail Properties
To ensure we select only the best retail properties, Wedgewood Capital Partners adheres to the following criteria:
- Property Types: We focus on short-term (<3 years) single-tenant properties such as QSRs, auto parts stores, and dollar stores. These properties offer stable, predictable income streams and are typically backed by strong national or regional tenants.
- Multi-Tenant Properties: We also target anchored and non-anchored multi-tenant properties with 20-50% vacancy. These properties provide opportunities for lease-up strategies that can significantly enhance value.
- Location: Our focus is on trade areas with a population of 25,000 or more. These locations ensure a robust consumer base, enhancing the likelihood of tenant success and sustained rental income.
Strategic Benefits of Our Approach
By adhering to these criteria, we ensure that each retail property acquisition is positioned for success. Our approach offers several key benefits:
- High Demand: Retail properties in high-traffic areas attract consistent consumer activity, providing a stable income base.
- Value-Add Opportunities: Properties with partial vacancies or short-term leases offer significant potential for value enhancement through strategic leasing and management.
- Diverse Portfolio: Our focus on both single-tenant and multi-tenant properties allows for a balanced portfolio with varied income streams and risk profiles.
Conclusion
Investing in retail properties with Wedgewood Capital Partners means leveraging our expertise and strategic approach to achieve optimal returns. Our rigorous criteria ensure that we acquire properties with substantial value-add potential, aligning with our commitment to delivering exceptional investment outcomes.
