The contemplated exchange, if made available formally, would provide investors with the opportunity to acquire a partial interest in a 153,000 square foot office/manufacturing facility located in Warren, Michigan and a 120,000 square foot office/manufacturing facility located in Auburn Hills, Michigan. Both properties are 100% net leased to BAE Industries, a wholly owned subsidiary of Marisa Industries, a full service world-class provider of high quality, cost effective interior seat latch mechanisms to the automotive industry. Bradley Associates is purchasing these facilities and BAE Industries has recently signed two 15 year non-cancellable net leases, expiring in October, 2022. Marisa Industries has also signed a full parent guaranty for the lease and BAE has pledged a $1,000,000 security deposit in the form of a letter of credit.
Bradley Associates is offering both of these properties as a potential exchange as together they represent the size required for a tax-free exchange. These new properties combined have the required debt and equity needed to complete a proper exchange.
The Warren property is being acquired for $7,111,818. The Auburn Hills property is being acquired for $11,015,455. PPM Finance is providing first mortgage financing for these buildings in the amount of $4,500,000 for the Warren property and $7,000,000 for the Auburn Hills property. The 10-year mortgages have 25 year amortization periods and are both at a rate of 6.45%.
