Opportunistic Investments
Sound real estate investments are not dependent upon “up” market conditions. In fact, the down-market cycle and distressed real estate transactions create fertile ground for acquisitions and opportunities to dispose of counter-cyclical properties in demand.
Landology invests primarily in high-quality multi-family, mixed-use, retail and recreational properties with terrific fundamentals that may be undergoing some form of distress whether situational, market, operational or bank related. Our strategy is to acquire newer properties in high-barrier-to-entry markets at discount, then hold, re-position, re-develop, operate, and sell at a profit. Our deal flow is extensive and we use our market, analytical, and property capabilities to bring a multidisciplinary approach necessary to address the intricacies of distressed property.
Many properties are currently in a distressed state; however, only a small percentage represents true, risk-appropriate opportunities. Finding and thoroughly evaluating them is our sole focus. They must fit our investment focus and portfolio strategy.
Investment Opportunities:
Landology is focused on distressed assets that include loans, mortgages, real estate, and other financial assets that are non-performing for a variety of reasons. We believe there is a limited window of opportunity to acquire undervalued, high-quality real estate assets before the property and banking markets stabilize.
- The current market is ripe for purchase of certain unique real estate assets selling at significant discounts to their underlying values.
- Many real estate investment and development firms that would normally be buy-side competitors for our target assets are weakened victims in today’s market because they purchased and developed projects during the height of the previous cycle.
- In addition to having an understanding of core real estate assets, Landology also has a thorough knowledge of the complexities of default, work out, foreclosure and bankruptcy situations. We have a proven ability to create new, innovative capital structures necessary for the acquisition and enhancement of such assets.
- Landology identifies properties from many sources including Other Real Estate Owned (ORE or OREO), non-performing and non-accrual loans (NPL) from banks and thrifts throughout the southeastern United States.
