Investment Narrative
One Memphis was acquired at an attractive price with stability in the rent roll but upside through lease up. We see upside in both occupancy and rents. The building needs some capital improvements which will help to position the building to achieve a better leasing performance. We also see the potential of selling off the surface parking lot to a residential tower developer in several years. The master plan originally contemplated a twin tower office development. The property is located in an opportunity zone, which can benefit future purchasers from capital gains tax exposure.
