value proposition to customers. I
believe the model we are building
empowers clients to have a more
transparent transaction and gain a
better understanding of the moving
parts. The exchange accounts, in my
opinion, should not be a black hole
where clients have no awareness of
the process or the location of their
money. Hopefully, we will continue
to see our model gain traction and
investors and com-
panies will appreci-
ate the value we
are bringing to the
marketplace both
technically with ex-
change information
and competitively
with our unique
platform.
CALKAIN:What is different about
ES Group than other Qualified Inter-
mediaries?
BRENNAN: I break the industry into
three segments: (1) Captive Quali-
fied Intermediaries that are part
of banks or financial institutions
C
alkain’s Executive Vice Presi-
dent, David Sobelman, had
the chance to sit down with
the founder of Exchange Solutions
Group, James Brennan, and ask him
first hand what makes ES Group
stand out among the rest.
CALKAIN:Why did you leave Wa-
chovia to start your own Qualified
Intermediary (QI)?
BRENNAN:The Qualified Intermedi-
ary industry was broken. You could
see the industry’s complete lack of
value and leadership based on the
fragmentation in market share. Not
one qualified intermediary in the
entire industry possesses more than
5% of the market. I believe that
the industry is fragmented due to a
universally broken business model
predicated on holding investors’
exchange proceeds and not allowing
them to influence where the pro-
ceeds will be held.When I decided
to leave Wachovia it was not just to
start “another qualified intermedi-
ary”, it was to turn the industry
on its head and offer a different
that offer 1031 exchange deposi-
tory services as part of their own
proprietary product line; (2) inde-
pendent intermediaries that are not
banks that aggregate investors’ funds
in an effort to leverage their singular
relationship with a bank; and (3) our
model which is simply a platform
that allows clients to interact with
a panoply of banks and arrange the
accounts properly. Large indepen-
dent intermediaries often object to
repositioning their companies to
allow for self-direction of proceeds
because they do not want to deal
with multiple relationships and ac-
counting headaches related to inter-
est they make on clients’ funds.
CALKAIN:Tell us about expansion
plans and where you have done busi-
ness thus far?
BRENNAN: Over the last four years
I have done business nationally.
Since we started Exchange Solutions
Group our transactions have come
from California, DC, Maryland, and
Virginia. We have regional offices in
Texas and Los Angeles, and plan to
expand to the Northeast, Southeast
and Mid-West within the year. We
like the baby boom generation for
the private client market.We like
the metropolitan regions for our
institutional focus. We are working
with several of the largest invest-
ment sales brokerages to develop
presences in the metro areas. We
plan on expanding primarily through
strategic banking relationships and
working directly with clients and
their advisors. Bank Boards are
dominated by property management
companies and title companies. Our
model allows those regional banks
to capture deposits they would not
have retained by partnering with ES
Group. The “retail” business will be
driven directly by educational semi-
nars and joint calls with clients and
their advisors.
CALKAIN:What types of assets
qualify for 1031 or 1033 exchanges?

set that generates a capital gain or
loss qualifies for an exchange. Most
clients focus on real estate assets
because the capital gain is readily
apparent. Personal property capital
gains tax liability is much more la-
tent, and hidden deep in the transac-
tion.Thus, depreciation recapture
often gets overlooked and personal
property exchanges on equipment
such as telecomm, trucks, and busi-
ness equipment do not get the atten-
tion they deserve.
Exchanges under Section 1033 we
see most often as a result of fire,
flood, and eminent domain. You do
not need a Qualified Intermediary
for these transactions; however, we
do get questions on them very often
because the concepts are so similar.
The pitfalls on 1033 exchanges are
often related to the misconception
that the 1031 rules apply. First of
all, on many of the conversions you
cannot use the broad definition of
“like-kind” as you are allowed under
Section 1031.
CALKAIN:There has been a consid-
erable amount of discussion from
Washington, DC on the increase of
the long-term capital gains rate. Can
you discuss what you are hearing and
what impact that will have on like-
kind (tax-deferred) exchanges?
BRENNAN: Increasing capital gains
taxes will cause more exchanges cer-
tainly. From our sources on Capitol
Hill we hear President Obama is lis-
tening to his economic advisors and
not proactively raising capital gains
rates to levels as high as 30 percent
which may deter transactions; how-
ever, that being said, rumor is that
he will let the “Bush tax cuts” expire
and we will see a mechanical move-
ment upward in federal capital gains
tax liability. Section 1031 is allegedly
not on the table to be removed as a
tax benefit for investors so that will
continue to be an incentive to “trade
into” better performing replacement
property rather than hold still or
cash out.
CALKAIN: Explain the benefits of
using a tax deferred exchange in this
economic climate.
There are two trends we are see-
ing right now: (1) lack of abundant
liquidity in the marketplace for most
assets and zero liquidity for many
assets, and (2) the ability to acquire
assets at very reasonable cap rates.
These two trends work together
nicely to allow for private clients
to engage in both estate planning
and recalibrating their real estate
portfolio. For instance, if clients
wanted to get out of
land, perhaps take a
“haircut” on what they
would like to sell it for,
and reposition it into
credit tenant invest-
ment properties they
can accomplish two
things: (1) get cash
flow which often mitigates need for
liquidity, and (2) acquire financeable
real estate in today’s economic con-
ditions. 1031 is a vehicle that allows
this transition to take place.
CALKAIN:What should a seller do if
they are contemplating completing a
like-kind (tax-deferred) exchange?
BRENNAN: Sellers should conduct a
James’ responsibilities include serving as the

stitutional clients. James works closely with
a team of experienced advisors to offer cus-
tomized exchange solutions. Prior to found-
ing ES Group, James served as the Mid-Atlan-
tic Regional Manager for two of the leading
National 1031 Exchange Qualified Intermedi-
aries, where he was responsible for assisting
real estate investors, accountants, attorneys,
REITs, and private equity groups with execut-
ing like-kind exchange transactions.
James is a licensed attorney and possesses

joint conference call or meeting with
their tax advisor and Qualified In-
termediary. CPAs and tax attorneys
possess comprehensive relationships
with their clients. Qualified inter-
mediaries will be intimately familiar
with the particular rules of the
like-kind exchanges because of their
focus.With a multitude of advisors
clients will benefit from the commu-
nication and dialogue. This dialogue
should not happen at settlement and
should happen as soon as there is
any contemplation of disposing of an
asset. Integrating a disposition and/
or exchange should fit into a client’s
overall plan and without upfront
planning the client will make myopic
decisions.

ith the country’s graying
population, our need for
medical care increases
each year. That need translates to
demand for additional medical staff
and with that, demand for more
healthcare facilities ranging from
physician’s offices to laboratories,
specialty treatment centers, ambula-
tory surgical facilities and acute care
hospitals.
New facilities are built in areas of
population growth to address this
need as well as to replace existing,
obsolete facilities.Technology de-
mands will also require new infra-
structure within different sectors
of the medical industry. Within the
broader category of healthcare real
estate, single tenant medical office
buildings (MOBs) fall into discrete
uses including special purpose facili-
ties such as dialysis centers, cancer
treatment centers, ambulatory
surgery centers, eye surgery centers
and offices that house a single physi-
cian practice or a small group of
complementary practices.
In order to determine the viability
of single tenant MOBs as real estate
investments, we must understand
both sides of the landlord/tenant
relationship.
Why do some medical providers
choose to lease instead of own?
Capital is a resource that remains
in high demand.The recent reduc-
tion of available mortgage loans for
commercial properties has caused
owners to be even more cautious
in determining where and how to
deploy their own capital. Physicians
and other medical service provid-
ers who aren’t required to spend
their own funds towards the owner-
ship of the real estate they occupy
can utilize that money for business
operations and to purchase newer or
additional medical equipment.
Frequently, investments that improve
operations and patient care also pro-
vide higher financial returns than the
returns achieved from the ownership
of real estate. Capital spent for the
ownership of business real estate
will reduce money otherwise spent
on rent. However, the same money
spent on medical equipment can
increase billable fees while improving
the practice’s patient care capability.

Another benefit of leasing medical
offices as opposed to owning them
is the elimination of mortgage debt.
Leases for business facilities, when
unencumbered with co-ownership
provisions or below-market purchase
options, are typically considered
to be operating leases that are not
listed as liabilities on the tenant’s
balance sheets.
Finally, physician groups are often
corporations, partnerships and other
business entities comprised of many
diverse individuals with varying
financial backgrounds, capabilities
and investment goals. By making the
strategic decision to separate the
core business of operating a medical
practice from the ancillary business
of owning the practice’s occupied
real estate, the group’s members
eliminate a significant area of poten-
tial internal conflict.
Why are investors attracted to single
tenant MOBs as real estate invest-
ments?
Investors, whether private or insti-
tutional, are increasingly attracted
to owning healthcare real estate.
The healthcare industry is one of the

fastest growing sectors of the econ-
omy and provides numerous invest-
ment opportunities. Sean Keehan,
et al, in “Health Spending Projec-
tions through 2017” projects U.S.
healthcare expenditures to account
for some
20% of the
country’s
entire GDP
in only
eight years.
MOBs
serve the
needs of
different
medical practices.They are found in
a variety of locations to serve those
needs and have different underlying
real estate values. Imaging centers,
cardiologists and cancer treatment
centers are some of the uses that
often locate close to hospitals for
the convenience of both patients
and physicians. Because of the high
cost of land and strictly regulated
design criteria, on-campus medi-
cal office buildings are among the
most expensive medical buildings to
develop and to lease. Facilities such
as pediatrician’s offices and dentist’s
offices are often located in or near
predominantly residential areas and
are subject to lower land and devel-
opment costs.
Single tenant MOB investments are
typically structured as the fee simple
ownership of commercial real estate
subject to long-term leases with
minimal responsibilities imposed on
landlords. Throughout the term of
the leases and renewal options, land-
lords receive rent payments. At the
conclusion of the leases, landlords
may sell, re-lease or re-develop their
properties for other uses and will
receive the benefit of each proper-
ty’s residual value.
Tenants of most single tenant MOB
properties are financially sound cor-
porations, limited liability companies
or partnerships and sometimes pro-
vide personal guarantees. Investors
view the development or purchase of
these properties as stable, low risk
real estate investments.
Leases are typically for initial terms
of ten to twenty years and may in-
clude several renewal options. Initial
base rents and periodic increases
are negotiated at the onset of the
lease and vary depending on land
and construction costs, financing
costs, tenant strength and local mar-
ket conditions. Responsibility for
maintenance, insurance and property
taxes commonly rests with the ten-
ant. Because physicians are generally
very image conscious, MOB tenants
commonly strive to keep their facili-
ties extremely well maintained.
MOB investment purchases are
sought by private market as well as
institutional investors. High qual-
ity underlying real estate, tenant
stability, long term leases, minimal
landlord responsibilities and a grow-
ing market segment are the elements
common to typical MOB investment
sales that are frequently sought by
the investment community.
“The healthcare industry is
one of the fastest growing
sectors of the economy...”
MARKET OUTLOOK
Changing financial markets have cre-
ated challenges for many owners of
commercial real estate, whether to
find new purchase money mortgages
or to refinance existing mortgages
when those notes be-
come due.
The sale-leaseback of
owner occupied fa-
cilities is an increasingly
popular strategy that
allows owners to sell
their property, access
their entire equity and
continue to occupy the
property for a predetermined length
of time.
Whether sold as newly developed
properties or as the sale-leaseback
of existing owner-occupied facilities,
investment activity for single tenant
medical office buildings will continue
to grow for the foreseeable future.

Calkain Companies Forms Net Lease
Property Division For Adverse Situations
C
alkain Companies announces
that it has formulated its
newest division, Calkain
Opportunity Services (COS).With
a daily influx of conversations on
how to maximize value of its client’s
property in the current market envi-
ronment, Calkain felt it was impor-
tant to formalize its procedures on
how to handle this specific real es-
tate dynamic.With the new division
comes a new hire within the multi-
disciplinary commercial real estate
firm.Todd Harrison, COS’s Managing
Director, will personally oversee the
new division and its operations.Todd
is a veteran commercial real estate
professional having served in leader-
ship positions for leading consulting,
due diligence, brokerage and real
estate investment firms. He has been
involved in over $2 billion of com-
mercial real estate pertaining to
analysis, underwriting, due diligence
and transactions in his tenure.
Calkain feels that the growing num-
ber of potential debt restructurings,
litigation from soured transactions
and failed investments will see an
onslaught of needs from investors,
sponsors, attorneys and apprais-
ers to have an impartial third party
evaluate the value of assets and help
determine a realistic exit strategy.
Jonathan Hipp, Calkain Companies
President and CEO, commented, “For
those individuals involved in less
than ideal situations, Calkain will be
able to formulate a plan on how to
exit their challenging situation with
realistic and fast results.Therefore,
we are thrilled to have Todd on
board. His diverse background is
particularly well-suited to the opera-
tions of this new division.”
There is an obvious increase in the
number of net leased assets default-
ing on their loan commitments and,
subsequently, banks taking control
of the property. Even stabilized, net
lease assets may have a caveat that
will force a non-traditional approach
to relieving the challenging situation.
Hipp continued, “With the previous
Ca lk a in Op p o rtu n ity
Calkain Opportunity
Se rv ic e s
Services
several years of aggressive prices
paid for net leased investments, many
landlords took on debt that may be
maturing in the near-term. COS is
set up to evaluate options for the
landlord and help with determining
several options for their investment.”
Harrison commented, “There is no
other service like this for net leased
assets. Calkain is nationally known
as a leader in the industry for this
specialized property type and we
feel that we are best equipped to
handle the deluge of situations that
have been presented to us in recent
months.”
COS will work with landlords, banks,
attorneys, multimember ownership
situations and a plethora of other
stakeholders involved in any one as-
set or portfolio of assets. IRC § 1031
Tax Deferred Exchanges, Debt Work
Outs, Restructuring & Reorganiza-
tions, Litigation and Dispute Resolu-
tion, and Expert Witness Litigation
Support will be the focus of the
newly formed division.

I believe the model we are building empowers clients to have a more transparent transaction and gain a better understanding of the moving parts. The exchange accounts, in my opinion, should not be a black hole where clients have no awareness of the process or the location of their money. Hopefully, we will continue to see our model gain traction and investors and com- panies will appreci- ate the value we are bringing to the marketplace both technically with ex- change information and competitively with our unique platform. CALKAIN:What is different about ES Group than other Qualified Inter- mediaries? BRENNAN: I break the industry into three segments: (1) Captive Quali- fied Intermediaries that are part of banks or financial institutions C alkain’s Executive Vice Presi- dent, David Sobelman, had the chance to sit down with the founder of Exchange Solutions Group, James Brennan, and ask him first hand what makes ES Group stand out among the rest. CALKAIN:Why did you leave Wa- chovia to start your own Qualified Intermediary (QI)? BRENNAN:The Qualified Intermedi- ary industry was broken. You could see the industry’s complete lack of value and leadership based on the fragmentation in market share. Not one qualified intermediary in the entire industry possesses more than 5% of the market. I believe that the industry is fragmented due to a universally broken business model predicated on holding investors’ exchange proceeds and not allowing them to influence where the pro- ceeds will be held.When I decided to leave Wachovia it was not just to start “another qualified intermedi- ary”, it was to turn the industry on its head and offer a different that offer 1031 exchange deposi- tory services as part of their own proprietary product line; (2) inde- pendent intermediaries that are not banks that aggregate investors’ funds in an effort to leverage their singular relationship with a bank; and (3) our model which is simply a platform that allows clients to interact with a panoply of banks and arrange the accounts properly. Large indepen- dent intermediaries often object to repositioning their companies to allow for self-direction of proceeds because they do not want to deal with multiple relationships and ac- counting headaches related to inter- est they make on clients’ funds. CALKAIN:Tell us about expansion plans and where you have done busi- ness thus far? BRENNAN: Over the last four years I have done business nationally. Since we started Exchange Solutions Group our transactions have come from California, DC, Maryland, and Virginia. We have regional offices in Texas and Los Angeles, and plan to expand to the Northeast, Southeast and Mid-West within the year. We like the baby boom generation for the private client market.We like the metropolitan regions for our institutional focus. We are working with several of the largest invest- ment sales brokerages to develop presences in the metro areas. We plan on expanding primarily through strategic banking relationships and working directly with clients and their advisors. Bank Boards are dominated by property management companies and title companies. Our model allows those regional banks to capture deposits they would not have retained by partnering with ES Group. The “retail” business will be driven directly by educational semi- nars and joint calls with clients and their advisors. CALKAIN:What types of assets qualify for 1031 or 1033 exchanges?

  • 3. CALKAIN COMPANIES, INC. N E T L E A S E A D V I S O R First Quarter 2009 set that generates a capital gain or loss qualifies for an exchange. Most clients focus on real estate assets because the capital gain is readily apparent. Personal property capital gains tax liability is much more la- tent, and hidden deep in the transac- tion.Thus, depreciation recapture often gets overlooked and personal property exchanges on equipment such as telecomm, trucks, and busi- ness equipment do not get the atten- tion they deserve. Exchanges under Section 1033 we see most often as a result of fire, flood, and eminent domain. You do not need a Qualified Intermediary for these transactions; however, we do get questions on them very often because the concepts are so similar. The pitfalls on 1033 exchanges are often related to the misconception that the 1031 rules apply. First of all, on many of the conversions you cannot use the broad definition of “like-kind” as you are allowed under Section 1031. CALKAIN:There has been a consid- erable amount of discussion from Washington, DC on the increase of the long-term capital gains rate. Can you discuss what you are hearing and what impact that will have on like- kind (tax-deferred) exchanges? BRENNAN: Increasing capital gains taxes will cause more exchanges cer- tainly. From our sources on Capitol Hill we hear President Obama is lis- tening to his economic advisors and not proactively raising capital gains rates to levels as high as 30 percent which may deter transactions; how- ever, that being said, rumor is that he will let the “Bush tax cuts” expire and we will see a mechanical move- ment upward in federal capital gains tax liability. Section 1031 is allegedly not on the table to be removed as a tax benefit for investors so that will continue to be an incentive to “trade into” better performing replacement property rather than hold still or cash out. CALKAIN: Explain the benefits of using a tax deferred exchange in this economic climate. There are two trends we are see- ing right now: (1) lack of abundant liquidity in the marketplace for most assets and zero liquidity for many assets, and (2) the ability to acquire assets at very reasonable cap rates. These two trends work together nicely to allow for private clients to engage in both estate planning and recalibrating their real estate portfolio. For instance, if clients wanted to get out of land, perhaps take a “haircut” on what they would like to sell it for, and reposition it into credit tenant invest- ment properties they can accomplish two things: (1) get cash flow which often mitigates need for liquidity, and (2) acquire financeable real estate in today’s economic con- ditions. 1031 is a vehicle that allows this transition to take place. CALKAIN:What should a seller do if they are contemplating completing a like-kind (tax-deferred) exchange? BRENNAN: Sellers should conduct a James’ responsibilities include serving as the primary point of contact for affluent and in- stitutional clients. James works closely with a team of experienced advisors to offer cus- tomized exchange solutions. Prior to found- ing ES Group, James served as the Mid-Atlan- tic Regional Manager for two of the leading National 1031 Exchange Qualified Intermedi- aries, where he was responsible for assisting real estate investors, accountants, attorneys, REITs, and private equity groups with execut- ing like-kind exchange transactions. James is a licensed attorney and possesses an undergraduate degree in finance from the University of Scranton and a law degree from the Wake Forest University School of Law. James additionally obtained his Masters of Law (LL.M.) Degree from Georgetown Uni- versity Law Center focusing on matters of securities law and tax planning. James has executed hundreds of 1031 exchange transactions including disposi- tions approaching and exceeding one billion dollars. He has been featured in the Washington Business Journal, CNNMoney, the Commercial Property News, and Costar regarding complex exchange strategies. The regional periodical Bisnow on Business deemed James “Mr. 1031” for his stature in the industry. From 2005 to 2008, James served as an Adjunct Faculty member at George Washington University in their MBA Program teaching real estate development case studies.

  • 4. CALKAIN COMPANIES, INC. N E T L E A S E A D V I S O R First Quarter 2009 W ith the country’s graying population, our need for medical care increases each year. That need translates to demand for additional medical staff and with that, demand for more healthcare facilities ranging from physician’s offices to laboratories, specialty treatment centers, ambula- tory surgical facilities and acute care hospitals. New facilities are built in areas of population growth to address this need as well as to replace existing, obsolete facilities.Technology de- mands will also require new infra- structure within different sectors of the medical industry. Within the broader category of healthcare real estate, single tenant medical office buildings (MOBs) fall into discrete uses including special purpose facili- ties such as dialysis centers, cancer treatment centers, ambulatory surgery centers, eye surgery centers and offices that house a single physi- cian practice or a small group of complementary practices. In order to determine the viability of single tenant MOBs as real estate investments, we must understand both sides of the landlord/tenant relationship. Why do some medical providers choose to lease instead of own? Capital is a resource that remains in high demand.The recent reduc- tion of available mortgage loans for commercial properties has caused owners to be even more cautious in determining where and how to deploy their own capital. Physicians and other medical service provid- ers who aren’t required to spend their own funds towards the owner- ship of the real estate they occupy can utilize that money for business operations and to purchase newer or additional medical equipment. Frequently, investments that improve operations and patient care also pro- vide higher financial returns than the returns achieved from the ownership of real estate. Capital spent for the ownership of business real estate will reduce money otherwise spent on rent. However, the same money spent on medical equipment can increase billable fees while improving the practice’s patient care capability. MEDICAL OFFICE MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDING SALES BUILDING SALES SALE-LEASEBACKS SALE-LEASEBACKS By: Guenter Manczur, CCIM Another benefit of leasing medical offices as opposed to owning them is the elimination of mortgage debt. Leases for business facilities, when unencumbered with co-ownership provisions or below-market purchase options, are typically considered to be operating leases that are not listed as liabilities on the tenant’s balance sheets. Finally, physician groups are often corporations, partnerships and other business entities comprised of many diverse individuals with varying financial backgrounds, capabilities and investment goals. By making the strategic decision to separate the core business of operating a medical practice from the ancillary business of owning the practice’s occupied real estate, the group’s members eliminate a significant area of poten- tial internal conflict. Why are investors attracted to single tenant MOBs as real estate invest- ments? Investors, whether private or insti- tutional, are increasingly attracted to owning healthcare real estate. The healthcare industry is one of the Are they today’s investment of choice? Are they today’s investment of choice?

Sean Keehan, et al, in “Health Spending Projec- tions through 2017” projects U.S. healthcare expenditures to account for some 20% of the country’s entire GDP in only eight years. MOBs serve the needs of different medical practices.They are found in a variety of locations to serve those needs and have different underlying real estate values. Imaging centers, cardiologists and cancer treatment centers are some of the uses that often locate close to hospitals for the convenience of both patients and physicians. Because of the high cost of land and strictly regulated design criteria, on-campus medi- cal office buildings are among the most expensive medical buildings to develop and to lease. Facilities such as pediatrician’s offices and dentist’s offices are often located in or near predominantly residential areas and are subject to lower land and devel- opment costs. Single tenant MOB investments are typically structured as the fee simple ownership of commercial real estate subject to long-term leases with minimal responsibilities imposed on landlords. Throughout the term of the leases and renewal options, land- lords receive rent payments. At the conclusion of the leases, landlords may sell, re-lease or re-develop their properties for other uses and will receive the benefit of each proper- ty’s residual value. Tenants of most single tenant MOB properties are financially sound cor- porations, limited liability companies or partnerships and sometimes pro- vide personal guarantees. Investors view the development or purchase of these properties as stable, low risk real estate investments. Leases are typically for initial terms of ten to twenty years and may in- clude several renewal options. Initial base rents and periodic increases are negotiated at the onset of the lease and vary depending on land and construction costs, financing costs, tenant strength and local mar- ket conditions. Responsibility for maintenance, insurance and property taxes commonly rests with the ten- ant. Because physicians are generally very image conscious, MOB tenants commonly strive to keep their facili- ties extremely well maintained. MOB investment purchases are sought by private market as well as institutional investors. High qual- ity underlying real estate, tenant stability, long term leases, minimal landlord responsibilities and a grow- ing market segment are the elements common to typical MOB investment sales that are frequently sought by the investment community. “The healthcare industry is one of the fastest growing sectors of the economy...” MARKET OUTLOOK Changing financial markets have cre- ated challenges for many owners of commercial real estate, whether to find new purchase money mortgages or to refinance existing mortgages when those notes be- come due. The sale-leaseback of owner occupied fa- cilities is an increasingly popular strategy that allows owners to sell their property, access their entire equity and continue to occupy the property for a predetermined length of time. Whether sold as newly developed properties or as the sale-leaseback of existing owner-occupied facilities, investment activity for single tenant medical office buildings will continue to grow for the foreseeable future.

  • 6. CALKAIN COMPANIES, INC. N E T L E A S E A D V I S O R First Quarter 2009 Calkain Companies Forms Net Lease Property Division For Adverse Situations C alkain Companies announces that it has formulated its newest division, Calkain Opportunity Services (COS).With a daily influx of conversations on how to maximize value of its client’s property in the current market envi- ronment, Calkain felt it was impor- tant to formalize its procedures on how to handle this specific real es- tate dynamic.With the new division comes a new hire within the multi- disciplinary commercial real estate firm.Todd Harrison, COS’s Managing Director, will personally oversee the new division and its operations.Todd is a veteran commercial real estate professional having served in leader- ship positions for leading consulting, due diligence, brokerage and real estate investment firms. He has been involved in over $2 billion of com- mercial real estate pertaining to analysis, underwriting, due diligence and transactions in his tenure. Calkain feels that the growing num- ber of potential debt restructurings, litigation from soured transactions and failed investments will see an onslaught of needs from investors, sponsors, attorneys and apprais- ers to have an impartial third party evaluate the value of assets and help determine a realistic exit strategy. Jonathan Hipp, Calkain Companies President and CEO, commented, “For those individuals involved in less than ideal situations, Calkain will be able to formulate a plan on how to exit their challenging situation with realistic and fast results.Therefore, we are thrilled to have Todd on board. His diverse background is particularly well-suited to the opera- tions of this new division.” There is an obvious increase in the number of net leased assets default- ing on their loan commitments and, subsequently, banks taking control of the property. Even stabilized, net lease assets may have a caveat that will force a non-traditional approach to relieving the challenging situation. Hipp continued, “With the previous Ca lk a in Op p o rtu n ity Calkain Opportunity Se rv ic e s Services several years of aggressive prices paid for net leased investments, many landlords took on debt that may be maturing in the near-term. COS is set up to evaluate options for the landlord and help with determining several options for their investment.” Harrison commented, “There is no other service like this for net leased assets. Calkain is nationally known as a leader in the industry for this specialized property type and we feel that we are best equipped to handle the deluge of situations that have been presented to us in recent months.” COS will work with landlords, banks, attorneys, multimember ownership situations and a plethora of other stakeholders involved in any one as- set or portfolio of assets. IRC § 1031 Tax Deferred Exchanges, Debt Work Outs, Restructuring & Reorganiza- tions, Litigation and Dispute Resolu- tion, and Expert Witness Litigation Support will be the focus of the newly formed division.
