    Acquisition Profile

    The asset was a side-by-side duplex in the Charlotte metro, one unit tenant-occupied and one vacant following a lengthy turnover. Ownership had deferred roof and HVAC work and had no interest in preparing the property for a retail listing.

    Underwriting Discipline

    Underwriting reflected the occupied lease, market rent on the vacant side, a scoped capital budget for roof and mechanicals, and Mecklenburg County carrying costs. Condition was priced in rather than renegotiated after inspection.

    Transaction Structure

    As-is acquisition with the tenant lease assumed at closing, no repair credits, and funding requirements and due-diligence conditions stated in the offer.
