Deal Story:
@Chipotle is coming to Winchester!
As seller rep, and with great local excitement, we closed this week on the sale of a 1.59 acre Bypass frontage lot in Winchester, KY, to a developer for what will be Chipotle's entry to the Winchester, KY market.
Needing only .78 acres for its site, this deal displayed the critical importance of efficiency within every portion of a land mass sale and is allowing the purchaser the opportunity to recoup some of its acquisition cost by now listing with us the balance of the land at .81 acres with an asking price of $375,000.
With water retention in place on site, this .81 acre site is approximately .5 acres developable, making a great opportunity for another QSR such as coffee or other small drive through type uses. The land is one of only two remaining Bypass frontage lots in all of Winchester and details of the offering can be found via the link below:

Took my dogs for a walk on the beach today by this East Hampton Estate for sale @ $44,500,000
Surreal having access to some of the most coveted real estate in the world. Saw maybe 5 people all morning, beach and backyard to ourselves.

Winchester has a big year ahead..
Of the 7 Bypass land listings we have for the Brooks family portfolio, 4 are currently under contract...
Each deal is either a preferred developer or owner/user for end uses including QSR, traditional retail, auto/retail, and one for special use category, to be announced later.
A welcome surprise to see this amount of development activity in spite of the many macro related headwinds currently in play from the increased interest rate environment, higher disposition cap rates, high construction costs, election year, etc..

Leasing individual office units with shared common spaces like kitchenettes and bathrooms was an instant hit during the pandemic. We quickly leased all 5 offices at 161 N Limestone St in Lexington in 2020/2021, but as things go with typical market turnover 3 of those tenants have now left so we are offering them back on the market for the first time in several years. Details include:
3 Individual Third Floor Office Suites available ranging from 144 square feet to 176 square feet
Rents range from $600/month to $750/month, all in except internet and parking
TONS of parking in the immediate areas surrounding the property, ranging from street metered parking to pay per day or month parking ($93/month, $2.50/hr)
Shared kitchenette/break room and restrooms
Beautifully renovated three story building with private elevator access to third floor
Move out of the home office and write off this business expense with more privacy and with access to coffee shops, retail, and awesome restaurants and bars in the area

Story of effective sales of retail properties at a land listing not being offered for sale:
Merchant Place, Richmond KY, is a Kohls anchored retail land development site, located off the bypass there in high residential and commercial density area
Approx 6 acres of out parcels were available for ground lease/BTS only, fronting the bypass, with an 8 acre co-anchor site next to Kohls available for sale @ $300K/acre
While owners did not prefer to sell the out parcels, they were open to offers based on the pricing guidance of the ground lease offering ($75K/acre/year)
Effective way to feel out the market, not commit to a price/value, weed out undesirable buyers/users, but remain open via my correspondence with interested parties to entertain various proposals
Recent out parcel sales include:
Speedway gas station, Popeye's Louisiana Chicken, and Domino's Pizza
Established comps/value there now at $750K/acre
Two out parcels remain, including the corner, which is undisputed highest value and will benefit from these sales

simple tenant rep deal + strong community impact
Ria Rahardja is supremely talented and has brought a world of culture to Richmond, KY, and now to Lexington at her next retail location that is opening this month in Palomar Centre.
Menu offerings include specialty desserts like ube cakes (Filipino), macarons (French), boba or bubble tea (Taiwanese), milk tea, matcha and cream-top drinks (China, Japan), non-alcoholic mojitos and fruit teas, including lychee.
What initially began as pop ups throughout Central KY has caught on through Ria's commitment to her product and service. Very happy for her and her talented team and appreciative of the opportunity to work with them.
Ria stems from what I refer to as a "family tree" of restauranteurs here in Lexington that I have the pleasure of representing which include Miyako Sushi and Steakhouse, Miyako Poke Bowl, Kyoto, Bumble Bites, and Omakase (now 2 locations in Lexington).

Closed this week on a 12.5 acre site in Lexington, formerly Transylvania Univ Baseball field, several layers involved:
Myself and @AJBoardman with @blockandlot represented the purchaser- A banking group — consisting of Central Bank, Community Trust Bank, Republic Bank and Trust, Stock Yards Bank and Traditional Bank — which pooled the $2.8 million acquisition price, negotiated from $3.2 million ask
Transy/seller was represented by SVN Stone
Intended use is for affordable housing development to develop homes, apartments, and townhouses
Developers include @AU_Associates , @Habitat_org , @UrbanLeagueLex and Winterwood
$10 million of state funds could be utilized upon final Senate approval, the money would go the city’s affordable housing fund and would be earmarked for this development
Zone change still required
