Kay Properties believes it has created one of the largest 1031 exchange and real estate investment online marketplaces in the country that gener - ates some of the largest DST 1031 investment volume in the United States.

Huntwood Courts is a 214-unit property constructed in 1951 and, after a substantial rehabilitation, was Placed-in-Service in 2001 under the Section 42 Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program. The Initial Compliance Period expired in 2016 and the Extended Use Period expires in 2031. The Property’s LIHTC restrictions are that 80% of the units are reserved for tenants making no more than 60% of the Area Median Income (AMI). The Property has more than 10 years of continuous ownership and is in a 2021 Qualified Census Tract. Prospective buyers were presented with an opportunity to acquire a well-positioned asset in the Northeast, D.C. neighbor - hood of Deanwood, which is one of the most rapidly growing submarkets in the city with limited rental housing stock. With a healthy existing cash flow, new ownership will benefit from the ability to improve operating expenses over time and continue to see growth in revenues.

Anchored by an 18,448 SF Aldi Supermarket, The Village at Pittsburgh Mills shopping center is 93% occupied by a strong lineup of national retailers and restaurants, including Ross, Mi - chaels, and PetSmart, as well as many other internet-resistant, daily needs tenants. The purchase of the property, which is located 16.8 miles east of downtown Pittsburgh, was FNRP’s second acquisition in the Metro area, allowing the vertically integrated real estate investment firm to expand its footprint in this highly-desirable market and add to its rapidly growing portfolio of premier assets throughout the United States.
