Shopoff Realty Investments, Praelium and Singerman Real Estate, LLC Acquire 126,500-Square-Foot Office Building in Charlotte, NC
Charlotte, NC – March 10, 2022 – Shopoff Realty Investments (“Shopoff”), Praelium, and an affiliate of Singerman Real Estate, LLC (“SRE”) announced today that the company has acquired Three Resources Square, a four-story, Class-A, 126,500-square-foot office building set on 13.62 acres in Charlotte, N.C.
The building is currently anchored by investment-grade tenant Republic Services, Inc. (NYSE: RSG, Moodys: Baa2), with a market cap of $38.6 billion.
“This property is well-positioned in the University Tech market of Charlotte, which has seen an influx of high-profile firms in recent years, including Credit Karma, Lending Tree Lowe’s, and Centene Corporation,” explained Shopoff President and CEO William Shopoff. “With a prime location, and an investment-grade tenant like Republic Services, we are confident this property will provide a solid investment for the partnership.”
Charlotte and the surrounding suburban markets offer a fast-growing and well-educated workforce, relative affordability, and high quality of life that help support the office market, and attract large firms.
Scott G. San Filippo, founding principal of Praelium Commercial Real Estate, added, “Charlotte continues to emerge as one of the strongest office growth markets in the country, having recently surpassed pre-pandemic total employment for the metro as well as the percentage of office workers accessing their physical workspace compared to the national average. We are excited to be acquiring Three Resource Square in another joint venture with Shopoff Realty Investments, and our first venture with SRE.”
Shopoff, Praelium and SRE plan to perform value-add improvements to the property, including potentially updating common areas and outdoor space, adding a hospitality-infused tenant lounge, indoor/outdoor space, and upgrading gym facilities.
Ian Russell, principal of acquisitions at SRE, commented, “This was a uniquely sourced off-market opportunity, made even more attractive by partnering with the best-in-class sponsorship of Praelium and Shopoff. SRE’s knowledge and experience in this submarket, and sustained investment across real estate asset classes in the Carolinas, allowed us to act quickly to close a transaction that should benefit from the tremendous growth in the region.”
