JLL Income Property Trust Acquires Premier Portland Apartments
July 18, 2017
JLL Income Property Trust today announced the acquisition of Jory Trail at the Grove, a premier 324-unit apartment community that is 95% leased. The Class A apartment property is located in the Portland, Oregon, suburb of Wilsonville. The purchase price was approximately $75 million.
Wilsonville is a thriving suburb of Portland that features a robust apartment market, low market vacancy, and no multifamily units under construction or planned in the submarket. The suburb is conveniently located along the I-5, providing access to some of greater Portland’s major employment centers, and is home to Xerox, Mentor Graphics, Rockwell Collins, and Tyco. Wilsonville, which has attracted a growing population of affluent families, also offers an exceptional public school system that Niche.com and US News & World Report have ranked as a top school system both locally and nationally. Wilsonville’s strong employment base and high barriers to entry should result in continued strong demand and future rent growth.
“The acquisition of Jory Trail at the Grove demonstrates JLL Income Property Trust’s strategy to invest in high-quality apartment assets in strong-performing areas featuring a combination of top incomes and school districts,” said Allan Swaringen, President and CEO of JLL Income Property Trust. “Jory Trail is our first multifamily acquisition in the Pacific Northwest, and we continue to focus our apartment investment strategy on submarkets that showcase stability growth and have high barriers to entry.” This acquisition represents JLL Income Property Trust’s ninth property investment in the apartment sector, bringing its aggregate apartment allocation to nearly $600 million and 25% of its overall property portfolio by valuation.
Summary of Risk Factors
You should read the prospectus carefully for a description of the risks associated with an investment in JLL Income Property Trust (JLLIPT). Some of these risks include but are not limited to the following:
Since there is no public trading market for shares of our common stock, repurchases of shares by us after a one-year minimum holding period will likely be the only way to dispose of your shares. After a required one-year holding period, JLLIPT limits the amount of shares that may be repurchased under our repurchase plan to approximately 5% of our net asset value (NAV) per quarter and 20% of our NAV per annum. Because our assets will consist primarily of properties that generally cannot be readily liquidated, JLLIPT may not have sufficient liquid resources to satisfy repurchase requests. Further, our board of directors may modify or suspend our repurchase plan if it deems such action to be in the best interest of our stockholders. As a result, our shares have limited liquidity and, at times, may be illiquid.
The purchase and redemption price for shares of our common stock will be based on the NAV of each class of common stock and will not be based on any public trading market. Because valuation of properties is inherently subjective, our NAV may not accurately reflect the actual price at which our assets could be liquidated on any given day.
JLLIPT is dependent on our advisor to conduct our operations. JLLIPT will pay substantial fees to our advisor, which increases your risk of loss. JLLIPT has a history of operating losses and cannot assure you that JLLIPT will achieve profitability. Our advisor will face conflicts of interest as a result of, among other things, time constraints, allocation of investment opportunities, and the fact that the fees it will receive for services rendered to us will be based on our NAV, which it is responsible for calculating.
The amount of distributions JLLIPT makes is uncertain and there is no assurance that future distributions will be made. JLLIPT may pay distributions from sources other than cash flow from operations, including, without limitation, the sale of assets, borrowings, or offering proceeds. Our use of leverage increases the risk of your investment. If JLLIPT fails to maintain our status as a REIT, and no relief provisions apply, JLLIPT would be subject to serious adverse tax consequences that would cause a significant reduction in our cash available for distribution to our stockholders and potentially have a negative impact on our NAV.
While JLLIPT’s investment strategy is to invest in stabilized real estate properties diversified by sector with a focus on providing current income to investors, an investment in JLLIPT is not an investment in fixed income. Fixed income has material differences from an investment in a non-traded REIT, including those related to vehicle structure, investment objectives, and restrictions, risks, fluctuation of principal, safety, guarantees or insurance, fees and expenses, liquidity, and tax treatment.
Investing in real estate assets involves certain risks, including but not limited to: tenants’ inability to pay rent, increases in interest rates and lack of availability of financing, tenant turnover and vacancies, and changes in the supply of or demand for similar properties in a given market.
