05-18: Office building, Retail centers, apartments, Sonic, Rite Aid, KFC


Advisory: Investment Risk on single-tenant properties with long term lease.

Investors normally prefer long-term leases on single-tenant properties, e.g. Walgreens.  They are concerned that the tenants may not renew the leases when the leases expire if the leases have just a few years left.  And so, these properties tend to have lower cap rate, e.g. 6% when the leases are relative new, i.e. have 20-25 years left.  The cap rate tend to be higher, e.g. 7% when the leases have 5-10 years left.  This simply means properties with new leases have a potential risk of depreciation.  They may be bought at 6% cap and sold at 7% or 16% reduction in value!

If the business is profitable, the tenant is not going to simply shut down the location just because the lease expires.  You can tell if the business is profitable by reviewing the P&L’s statements (Profit and Loss) of the tenant.  However, the P&Ls are not always available and so rent to sales revenue ratio is an indicator of profitability –-            admittedly not a very precise indicator.

Conclusion: by choosing a property with 5-10 yrs left on a lease to a credit tenant with a profitable location, you will be able to avoid the potential risk of depreciation.  In addition, you will get better returns and the security of a credit tenant.
