“This investment is a great example of the type of access we provide our investors in what is a difficult market to get deals closed,” commented Michael Phillips, CEO and co-founder of Loci Capital. “The cost basis, underlying cash flow of the portfolio, and strength of the tenant base combine to create a wide margin of safety for our investors. Combined with world-class sponsorship, we think this is a great first deal for our Fund II investors.”
The investment was made concurrent with GIPR’s acquisition of a portfolio of 13 net lease assets from Modiv Industrial, Inc. (NYSE: MDV), an internally managed net lease industrial manufacturing REIT. The high-quality portfolio is complementary to GIPR’s portfolio and investment strategy. The transaction nearly doubles the size of GIPR’s portfolio, is immediately accretive to cash flow for the Company and increases their geographic footprint to 13 states across the US.
“We’ve been extremely impressed with Generation Income Properties throughout the investment process,” said Garrett Francis, Managing Principal and Head of Capital Markets at Loci Capital. “The team has been incredibly transparent and easy to work with, providing us with timely access to information needed to complete an in-depth underwriting of the portfolio. We hope that this first investment will mark the beginning of a long-term relationship with GIPR.”
“We are very grateful for the relationship formed with Loci and the opportunity to work together on this portfolio. Our similar cultures and attention to detail made for a seamless transaction and we’re pleased to be working with Loci as we grow our Company,” commented David Sobelman, CEO of GIPR.
Loci pursues a diversified strategy consistent with the track record of its senior leadership team focused on making investments in the Southeastern U.S. The firm invests across asset classes and throughout the capital stack, targeting opportunistic returns consistent with those demonstrated by the firm’s 13-year attributable track record.
