Distressed Real Estate Opportunities

With the financial and credit markets imploding in the last few weeks, Baceline sees opportunity. We have implemented a strategy to take advantage of our investment footprint, infrastucture and track record in America's Heartland to seek out and purchase distressed real estate. Although we have not seen distress so far in our sector, most certainly distress will pop up in isolated cases and Baceline is ready to seize on this opportunity. Large investment funds have been formed to seek out distress in the major markets, but few investment groups will be looking in the smaller markets for distress. Since Baceline is already buying healthy properties in these areas, it's a natural fit to include distress into its investment portfolio. Real estate investors who are looking for the risk and potential return of investing in distressed assets will now have an outlet in working with Baceline. We will be tracking this segment closely over the next few weeks and months and hope to capitalize on opportunity when it arises.

Sustainability

Baceline has announced and now implemented its sustainability program, where it will be the first company in the country to bring an organized green effort to Main Street real estate ownership. In addition to its implementation company-wide, through its sustainability initiatives program, Baceline will education its vendors and tenants on sustainable practices and work towards making its portfolio of properties green. This is an exciting project for Baceline and is one that will not only help the world in which we live but increase operating efficiencies and values of the assets that it owns.

Middle America real estate opportunity

Baceline has competed its study of 48 markets in the middle of the country that boast sound infastructure, better than average income and job growth. These markets are prime for real estate investing as there is true value to be realized and not just speculative hopes of fortune. We are currently looking in Boise, Idaho, one of the top picks in this market study for opportunity. Other cities such as San Antonio Texas and Dayton Ohio are high on our list as we have properties under contract in these cities. Making an investment in the middle of the country can shield the investor from the wild swings of markets on the coasts. Therefore, Baceline is committed to this region and the opportunity that it provides.
