May 12, 2014 (FPRC) -- The Boulder Group, a net leased investment brokerage firm, has completed the sale of a brand new McDonald’s ground lease located along Grand River Avenue in the Detroit MSA for $1,350,000.

McDonald’s is the sole occupant of the property that features a 4,500 square foot building. The 1.39 acre parcel is located along Grand River Avenue, which experiences traffic counts in excess of 21,000 vehicles per day. The property is benefited by its close proximity to the signalized intersection of Grand River Avenue and Drake Road, which creates consistent traffic near the site. There are many national retailers nearby including O’Reilly Auto Parts, Panera Bread, Rite Aid, and Bank of America. The property is fully leased to McDonald’s with twenty years of lease term remaining and escalating rents in both the primary term and renewal option periods.

Randy Blankstein and Jimmy Goodman of The Boulder Group represented the seller, a Chicago based investment firm. The buyer was a high net worth investor in a 1031 exchange based in California.

McDonald’s has twenty years of lease term remaining on an original 20 year ground lease that commenced November 2013. McDonald’s is a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange (MCD), with a market capitalization of $95 billion. McDonald’s is an investment grade rated company with a Standard & Poor’s rating of A and has over 34,000 locations worldwide.

“The market for ground leases with investment grade tenants remains strong as investors are attracted to the typical long term leases with rental escalations.” said Randy Blankstein, President of The Boulder Group. Jimmy Goodman, Partner of The Boulder Group, added, “The market for McDonald’s ground leases remains active as investors are attracted to investment grade tenanted properties with long term leases under $2 million dollars.”
