4 days ago

That vision for the property at the southwest corner of Fulton Street and Racine Avenue could be a key test for 27th Ward Ald. Walter Burnett’s new policy on residential development in Fulton Market north of Lake Street. Burnett has previously cited the pitfalls of future residents opposing new commercial development as a reason for blocking apartment buildings in that area. But in May he said he would lift his ban to try to stoke new investor interest in the neighborhood amid the COVID-19 crisis.

Given the density of office buildings in the area and companies including Google, McDonald’s and Mondelez International establishing it as a corporate destination, the buyers were willing to pay a big number for the chance to add apartments to the mix.

The sale price is roughly seven times the $2.7 million that the seller, Atlanta-based real estate firm Drapac Capital Partners, paid for the property

Instead of using that area, the city plans to buy the property at 326 Main St. from the David S. Dennison and Carol H. Dennison Revocable Trust and demolish that building for the space he needs to build the apartments.

ExploreDeveloper: No, apartments won’t work in Hamilton Municipal Building

The city consulted with historic experts who believe the building at 326 Main St. has much less historic value than the duplex does, partly because it has been modified through the years, City Manager Joshua Smith said.

It has a brick office area on the front of it and less historic value, he added.

Because a variety of people expressed interest in the double residence, the city plans to ask would-be buyers of it how they would use it. City officials plan to use the $100,000 from the sale of that building to purchase 326 Main St.

Apartments may be next trouble spot for property investors

Where is the next area of pain for commercial property markets? Ask analysts, investors and even the debt collectors responsible for chasing unpaid mortgages and there is usually one common answer: apartment buildings. 

An end to the US government’s stimulus programmes, they say, alongside a moratorium on landlords evicting tenants, will lead to severe losses for investors. 

The logic is straightforward. Tenants, deprived of government stimulus, are finding it harder to pay their rent. Landlords in turn will have less income to pay their mortgages. This is then amplified by eviction moratoriums in many states, which prevent landlords booting out tenants who can’t pay their rent. 

Finally, reduced payments will hit investors that ultimately finance the properties through the commercial mortgage-backed securities market, where property loans are bundled together to back payments on new bonds. But, crucially, this hasn’t happened yet.

The first round of government stimulus, which included an
