The Fourth Quarter of 2020 was, shall we say, interesting. Our bigger transactions were on COVID-19 pause, while our meat and potato transactions proceeded as almost normal. Some sectors (e.g. self-storage, industrial and multi-family) remained active while others (e.g. retail) came to a near halt.
What will 2021 bring? My crystal ball is broken. Even so, if the Texas migration continues (and by all accounts it will) and as soon as the COVID-19 vaccines are widely administrated, life as we knew it in 2019 should return, barring any disruptive legislation/regulations out of D.C.
Who knows? Perhaps we shall finish 2021 on a high note.
Set forth below are some transactions we recently closed.
- Represented Sellers in the sale of self-storage facilities in Mansfield, Texas and Phoenix, Arizona.
- Represented Seller in the sale of a 10-story office building in the CBD of Little Rock, Arkansas.
- Represented Purchasers in acquisitions of sites for development of self-storage facilities in Goodyear, Arizona and Sachse, Texas.
- Represented West Texas rancher to effect various Estate Planning 1031 exchanges of ranches.
- Represented West Texas farm owners in negotiated eminent domain proceeding for Oncor electric transmission line.
- Represented Developer in the acquisition of an approximately 18.386 acre tract in San Antonio, Texas for multi-family development.
