Select Strategies Acquires Historic Downtown Building

By   – Senior Staff Reporter, Cincinnati Business Courier

Select Strategies Realty, a commercial real estate company that manages and leases retail assets in 10 states as well as office and multifamily assets in Ohio and Kentucky, has made its first acquisition of a downtown Cincinnati property.

Select Strategies Realty purchased the building at 21 W. Court St. and plans to renovate the building into first-floor retail space topped by three floors of creative office space. Brian Neltner, CEO of Select Strategies Realty, said the firm was attracted the property because of the 1010 On the Rhine developmentthat includes downtown’s first Kroger store in 50 years, and Cincinnati Center City Development Corp.’s $9 million Court Street condos project.

“There’s a lot of excitement on Court Street right now,” Neltner told me.

Select Strategies Realty purchased the building from Towne Properties on June 24 for $500,000, according to property records. Towne Properties had purchased the building from Chinedum Ndukwe’s Kingsley Property Development in 2015 for $400,000. Towne Properties had been looking at converting the building into large residential condominiums.

The four-story building has wide open 6,000-square-foot floorplates, plus about 6,000 square feet of usable space in the basement. With those larger floors, Neltner said it will give a retail or restaurant user the ability to do something larger than what is typically found in Over-the-Rhine.

Having owned the building for about a week, Select Strategies Realty has already received a lot of interest in the first floor retail space. A number of bars and restaurants, including Queen City Exchange, Fiery Hen and Court Street Lobster Bar, are nearby.

As for the office space, Nelter said they will take advantage of the open spaces and high ceilings, with big front windows that look out onto Court Street.

“It will have a cool, urban feel to it,” Neltner said.

The building is well-located for office users, Neltner said, especially for firms that want to be close to Kroger, the court house or Hamilton County’s Administration Building.

Select Strategies Realty, founded in 2005, specializes in the development, acquisition, management and leasing of retail and mixed-use real estate in the Midwest and Southeast. Select has sponsored retail investments totaling more than $175 million and provides management and leasing services for more than 5.6 million square feet of retail space.

If the Court Street building is successful, Neltner said the company would “absolutely” look at other downtown opportunities.

 Select Strategies Realty Announces Portfolio Acquisition

Cincinnati Business Journal – Press Release

CINCINNATI (September 20, 2018) — Select Strategies Retail Holdings V, LLC, an affiliate of privately held real estate investment firm Select Strategies Realty, announced the completion of its $78.4 million acquisition of a seven-property shopping center portfolio in the greater St. Louis metropolitan area. The 1,100,000 square foot portfolio is 91% leased and is anchored by a strong group of national tenants including ALDI, Fresh Thyme, Burlington and Planet Fitness. Select Strategies Retail Holdings V made the acquisition on behalf of the firm’s principals and investment partners.

“Select’s investment strategy is driven by our analysis of retail trade areas, synthesized with our proprietary STAR methodology,” said Reynolds Thompson, chairman and chief investment officer. “We combine an operator’s perspective with decades of investment experience, which allows us to identify unique investment opportunities with significant value-add components.”

The St. Louis properties include Creve Coeur at 955 Woodcrest Executive Drive and 12139 Olive Boulevard; Kings Highway at 4650 Lansdowne Avenue; LeMay Shopping Center at 1000 LeMay Ferry Road; Gravois Plaza at 3727 Bamberger Ave.; Kirkwood Crossing at 1259 S. Kirkwood Rd. and Overland Crossing at 8901 Page Avenue. The portfolio also includes Fairview City Centre in Fairview Heights, Illinois. The portfolio’s anchor tenants include The Home Depot, Fresh Thyme Farmer’s Market, ALDI, Office Max, Kohl’s, Home Goods, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Burlington Coat Factory, Hobby Lobby and Planet Fitness.

“We know this market well,” said Brian Neltner, CEO of Select Strategies Realty.  “We have Select professionals on the ground in these specific sub-markets, so we can apply our leasing, development and management expertise to these assets. Given our long-standing presence and experience in this market, we expect to provide strong current returns and create long-term value for our investors.”

This transaction reflects the latest success of the Select Retail Advisors program, formed in 2015 to pursue investment opportunities on behalf of the firm’s principals and investment partners. The value of transactions sponsored by Select now exceeds $175 million. “We are appreciative of the opportunity to purchase these assets in a direct manner, which we believe is reflective of our reputation as buyers and operators in our primary markets”, commented Neltner.

“We continue to see a disconnect between the investment community’s perception of risk and the risk we believe to be reality,” said Thompson. “There is an opportunity to identify attractive assets as public and institutional investors exit certain markets. Select’s trade area oriented investment protocol provides the framework for identifying these types of opportunities.”

Holiday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) provided advisory services to Select Strategies Retail Holdings V relating to the sourcing of debt capital for this portfolio. HFF and its affiliates operate out of 26 offices and are a leading provider of commercial real estate and capital market services to the global commercial real estate industry. The HFF team that represented Select Strategies Retail Holdings V was led by managing director Jeremy Sain.
