Cobourg Self Storage, Real Estate Equity, Ontario
This is a property of which the pool owns a 50% stake. It was purchased from the original builder who was willing to finance the purchase through a vendor-take-back mortgage at very favourable terms. Our operational partner on the deal is TVG Canada. TVG is a New York based development and management company specifically focused on self storage. TVG felt that the rents were below market and that additional storage space could be developed on the property. We purchased it at a very attractive valuation, ie a cap rate of 10, and are targeting a low double digit cash flow yield, and an IRR in the low 20s, through increased asset value once net operating income is ramped up through improved operational efficiencies and the build out of the additional capacity. The exit strategy would be an outright sale, or a re-financing that would repatriate our original equity while allowing us to maintain an ongoing interest in the property. We felt this was an attractive return profile given that self storage is a very low risk class of real estate given its simplicity, low operational costs, and the fact that it is fairly insensitivity to economic activity.
