Westwood Net Lease Advisors’ Brokers Made The Best 1031 Exchange Deal
Westwood Net Lease Advisors’ brokers Vince Vatterott and Jason Simon have completed the biggest 1031 exchange transaction in our company’s history, resulting in our client acquiring the $92.6 million new Dow Chemical headquarters building in Midland, Michigan.
Westwood Net Lease represented a prominent Northeastern investor. He was looking for a massive 1031 exchange as a consequence of a return to the lender of a distinct property where the loan significantly exceeded the property’s current market value. Unlike the majority of 1031 exchange transactions, the tax liability our client looked to defer did not come from gain, but it came from the remission of debt by the lender who adopted a deed in lieu of a foreclosure.
Due to the outstanding 1031 exchange, our client was eager to find a new property that had the lowest equity required to complete a transaction of that amount. The key for our client was to completely understand what exactly was needed to defer the $11 to $12 million tax liability successfully without requiring significant additional cash.
Our Westwood brokers focused on what’s known as “zero cash flow deals.” That’s where the loan to value is a lot higher because all the rental income goes to retire the loan. Vince Vatterott presented our client with a zero cash flow deal to acquire the new Dow Chemical company building as part of a larger Dow campus. The building was designed and built to Dow’s particular requirements. Then they agreed to lease the property for a time of 25 years, with all of the rent, involving annual increases, used to retire a loan as well as $80 million.
Wells Fargo was the financial developer/seller of the property with the financing “credit lease” made by TiAA CREFF. David Clary of Stan Johnson Company represented Wells Fargo, the seller. Our client was able to assume the existing (significantly leveraged) loan and provided only $11 million in equity. That matched the tax liability that would have happened for the 1031 exchange transaction.
Our Westwood seasoned brokers found the property for our client, negotiated the business terms and suggested the qualified intermediary (QI). The client was also well supported by superior legal specialists regarding the 1031 exchange transactions and the issues of completing this complicated transaction.
