A California-based investor reached out to Justin Rayburn, to help complete a 1031 Exchange so they could defer capital gains taxes on a commercial building sale.
The client sold a commercial property in California and had 45-days to identify replacement properties in Colorado in order to complete a 1031 Exchange, which would prevent the client from having to pay significant capital gains tax on proceeds realized from the increase in property value.
Once properties were identified, they had to be closed within the following 135-days, which meant Rayburn had to move quickly. He recommended the client diversify their financial portfolio by purchasing two investment-grade office properties in Colorado that would qualify for the 1031 Exchange program and provide a continuous stream of retirement income for the client.
An administrative office in the healthcare industry came to Justin Rayburn, tenant representative, to renew and restructure an existing lease agreement.
The client was in a long-term lease obligation at a rental rate that was 15% above current market rents in their building and in need of interior renovations completed within the premises.
The client didn’t have the time or in-depth expertise needed to go head-to-head with their landlord—that’s where we came in. To successfully restructure the lease, Rayburn knew he would have to start negotiating early. Without sufficient lead time, they’d lose any leveraging power they had. To determine the new leasing agreements, Rayburn performed a property evaluation, market analysis, and financial analysis. After doing so, he sought a lower rental rate and much-needed tenant improvements.
