Fiduciary Case Study #1

Property Info:
  • Location:  Carlsbad, CA
  • Type:  Retail Shopping Center
  • Synopsis:  The property had been family owned and operated for 50+ years when the 2 heirs inherited the asset. Unfortunately, they had significant differences in opinion on how to operate the asset. 
Business Partners at Work
Plan of Action...
McKee Commercial began by analyzing the existing operation of the asset to determine the necessary steps to take in order to add value. The property was in dire need of overdue maintenance, the rents were below market, and the tenants did not have a sense of stable direction from ownership.  We worked closely with The Fiduciary Trustee to ensure that both beneficiary's visions of the family asset were being addressed.  
Results...
  • Increased monthly rents by 47.5% in just 4 years!
  • Renewed existing tenants while increasing rents
  • Cleaned up all lease files and placed tenants on proper documents  
  • Implemented a new parking management plan and substantially increased ancillary income 
  • All tenants now pay rent on time each and every month
  • All tenants now have tenant liability insurance with proper coverage limits
  • Performed significant improvements to preserve property and protect ownership's liability interest
  • Both beneficiaries and are now extremely satisfied with the outcome!  

Fiduciary Case Study #2

Property Info:
  • Location:  La Mesa, CA
  • Type:  Street Front Retail 
  • Synopsis:  The portfolio of properties fell into the oversight of a Fiduciary Trustee when the remaining parent became mentally incapable of operating the properties. 
Market Analysis
Plan of Action...
McKee Commercial began by meeting with the previous property management company to review their books.  It was determined that the previous property management had simply become complacent with no real objective to maximize their client's returns. All of the previous long term tenants were paying below market rent and many could not ever pay rent on time. Help was desperately needed!
Results...
  • Increased monthly rents by 135% in just 4 years!
  • Replace the existing tenants that could not afford the new market rents.
  • No Tenant Improvements were paid for by ownership! All tenants paid for their own improvements equating to millions of dollars. 
  • Cleaned up all lease files and placed tenants on proper documentation.
  • All tenants now have tenant liability insurance with proper coverage limits
  • Performed significant improvements to preserve property and protect ownership's liability interest
  • By increasing rents plus tenant funded improvements, property value has increased tremendously! 

Fiduciary Case Study #3

Property Info:
  • Location:  Coronado, CA
  • Type:  Apartment Complex 
  • Synopsis:  The property was extremely well kept by the parent who lived onsite. During that time, the owner became close friends with many of the long term tenants.
Pile of Coins
Plan of Action...
McKee Commercial identified that the below market rents were due to the original owner's close relationships with her tenants. However, the beneficiaries that inherited the property were in need of additional funds but were sensitive to their mother's relationships.  We knew that needed a steady plan to increase rents in order to meet our new client's expectations as well as keep the property operating profitably!
Results...
  • Increased monthly rents by 66% in just 6 years!
  • Steady renewed long term existing tenants with moderate annual rent increases.
  • At turnover, all new vacancies were pushed to market 
  • Performed significant improvements to preserve property and protect ownership's liability interest
  • By increasing rents plus tenant funded improvements, property value has increased tremendously!
