New Guaranteed 7.5% Cash on Cash Jump Starts Real Estate Market

Tempe, AZ, November 14, 2008 --(PR.com)-- The Merick Group Inc. has done something amazing to revitalize commercial real estate sales at a time when investor confidence is at an all time low. By making available pre-paid lease guarantees on all its buildings, buyers of Merick Group commercial properties find the security they are looking for as well as superior cash on cash returns. Some Merick Group deals have started at over 8.4% cash on cash with increases up to 20% cash on cash in the first ten years of the lease term.

“It is all about security and great returns” says Ed Balder, Marketing Director and agent for the Merick Group. “All our properties feature single national tenants on up to 20 year net net net leases. The key factor here is that the lessee has also pre-paid into escrow up to 3 years of lease payments in advance. During those first three years tenants also pre-pay on future years, making vacancy factors no factor at all” explains Balder.

When it comes to the resale of the property, Balder explained that every lease also has in place a buy back option that guarantees the owner a minimum 3% yearly appreciation on their original purchase price at year seven. “We have tried to remove as much risk as possible while providing exceptional ownership benefits.”

Each property is offered as a sole ownership investment at prices from $400,000 up to $50,000,000. Most are sold cash. Financing is often an issue before the sale as the construction of the build outs may still be taking place. Refinancing after the sale is often routine and done very quickly. Improvements made to the property and long leases being in place make for very lender friendly real estate. “The Merick Group pays for all the tenant improvements and escrows funds to correct any problems that might come up in building inspections. Our new owners have as close to brand new building as possible. From that point on the tenant is responsible for most of the building so our clients have practically no property management concerns except cashing their monthly lease payment check”.

Properties are available in most major cities now but Mr. Balder does not expect them to be on the market very long. If interested go to our web site to view an on-line presentation or e-mail Balder at edbalder@themerickgroup.com. Phone contact 877-438-6808.
