BRT Realty Trust Acquires Multi-Family Property for $38.2 Million
Sells Multi-Family Property for $30.4 Million; Continues to Actively Manage Multi-Family Portfolio
(firmenpresse) - GREAT NECK, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 09/06/16 -- BRT REALTY TRUST (NYSE: BRT) today announced that on September 1, 2016, it acquired a second multi-family property in the city of Southaven, Mississippi, a suburb of Memphis, Tennessee, for $38.2 million. The Company also sold for a significant gain a multi-family property for $30.4 million in Kansas after owning it for 2 1/2 years.
On September 1, 2016, BRT, through a joint venture in which it has a 60% interest, acquired Civic Center II, a 384 unit multi-family property located in Southaven, Mississippi, for $38.2 million, inclusive of $30.6 million of mortgage debt obtained in connection with the acquisition. The mortgage matures in October 2026, bears an annual interest rate of 3.73% and is interest only until October 2021.
On September 1, 2016, BRT, through a consolidated joint venture, sold Sundance, a 496 unit multi-family property located in Wichita, Kansas for $30.4 million. BRT estimates that in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 it will recognize, after giving effect to a $1.9 million charge associated with the prepayment of the mortgage debt, an $8.6 million gain on the sale and that BRT''s share of such gain will be approximately $5.3 million.
Jeffrey A. Gould, President and Chief Executive Officer commented, "We continue to actively manage our multi-family portfolio to ensure that the Company is leveraging its market presence and asset management platform to maximize growth. As such, we added Civic Center II in Southaven, Mississippi which is adjacent to our recently acquired Civic Center I asset, thus gaining a significant presence in a highly desirable area with a strong retail presence. We coupled this acquisition with the disposition of a property that we believe has limited growth potential. By selling the Kansas property now and reinvesting the proceeds in stronger properties, we can enhance long-term cash flow," Mr. Gould continued, "These transactions speak to the strength of our joint venture relationships as both the transactions were completed with the same partner."
