Two-Tenant Industrial Outdoor Storage Asset | Corporate Credit - NNN Leases
Marketing description
100% National Tenant Lineup with Robust Corporate Credit Profile
CentiMark & JM Test Systems are leading operators in their respective industries. CentiMark is the largest commercial roofing contractor in the U.S. with a $1+ billion revenue and a 50+ year operating history. JM Test Systems operates nationally with a $100+ million revenue and a 40+ year operating history. Both Tenants offer full corporate credit.
Extensive Building Improvements Recently Complete at Tenants' Expense
CentiMark and JM Test Systems collectively spent hundreds of thousands of dollars, at their own expense, on their respective buildouts. This investment not only enhances residual value for a future owner but also indicates strong tenant commitment & high likelihood that both will wish to remain on site long-term.
Below-Market Rent with Mark-to-Market Opportunity in Year 5
CentiMark & JM Test Systems are currently paying a collective rent of just $9.11 / SF, which is below market for Billings, MT even before considering the value of the outdoor storage space. Similar industrial spaces in Billings without any outdoor storage yard space are currently leasing for $12/SF (Contact Broker for details). Furthermore, both Tenants contributed significant $ to thier own build outs, collectively hundreds of thousands. Since neither Tenant has extension options in their Lease, Landlord has full leverage to set new terms & rent at expiration of the current term, in Year 5.
Mission-Critical “Hub” Location for Both Tenants
Billings is the largest industrial market in a ±400 mile radius and acts as a hub serving this massive geographical region. Both CentiMark and JM Test Systems use Billings as a center of operations in covering this large area, benefiting from the Property’s position just off I-90 to access surrounding markets. Given that both Tenants advertise the ability to service their clients’ needs on a national basis, having a presence in this market is critical for both CentiMark & JM Test Services.
NNN Leases with Annual Rent Increases
Passive NNN leases with 3.00% and 4.00% annual rent increases from CentiMark & JM Test Systems, respectively.
Separate Buildings, Fenced Yards, Drive Lanes & Entrances Mitigate Landlord Management Obligations
All Property elements save for some shared utilities are fully separate, including separate buildings, access drives, yards, etc. Each Tenant manages and maintains their own site offering a much more passive ownership structure compared to most multi-tenant industrial assets. This allows an owner to benefit from multi-tenant diversification while also avoiding the management obligations that typically come with multi-tenant assets.
Potential to Self-Mange for Additional Income
Both Tenants pay a management fee equal to 5.00% of Landlord’s gross annual receipts (including on all rent paid and all OpEx including taxes, CAM, and insurance). Given the passive nature of the Leases there are nominal property management obligations, so current ownership self-manages the asset and retains the ±$8,000 management fee as additional income, which a new owner could continue to do.
Recent 2015 & 2014 Construction & Large 2.40-Acre Lot Enhances Residual Value
Recent construction with 3-buiding layout and large fenced & graveled lot offers strong residual value.
Ongoing Tenant Financial Reporting
Both Tenants report entity-level financials on an ongoing basis.
No State Sales Tax in Montana & Business Friendly Policies
Montana is one of the most tax-efficient and business-friendly states in the country, being one of only five states with no sales tax, plus a low 6.75% corporate income tax rate. The state also provides businesses with an automatic $1 million business equipment tax exemption and consistently ranks highly for business tax climate and economic competitiveness.
