The Children's Courtyard - Tampa, FL
Retail | 6.50% CAP | 13,950 SqFt
Marketing description
This offering presents a newly constructed, purpose-built daycare facility leased to The Children’s Courtyard, a brand operated by Learning Care Group—one of the nation’s largest early childhood education providers. Located at 7920 Gunn Highway in Tampa, FL, the ±13,950 SF building sits on a ±1.95-acre lot with a 10,000 SF outdoor playground. The lease is backed by a full corporate guaranty from Learning Care Group and structured as a 15-year double-net (NN) lease with annual rent of $462,980, 7 percent rent increases every five years, and four 5-year renewal options. The surrounding area boasts strong family-centric demographics, with over 21% of Tampa’s population under the age of 18, and median household incomes exceeding $130,000 within one mile. As Hillsborough County grapples with a childcare facility shortage— down approximately 25 providers since the pandemic—this mission-critical location offers significant barriers to entry and long-term operational stability. With minimal landlord responsibilities, passive income, and a tenant backed by private equity sponsor American Securities, this investment provides an exceptional blend of yield, security, and demographic tailwinds.
