OVERVIEW

Forged Real Estate is pleased to exclusively offer the opportunity to acquire the fee simple interest in a single tenant property leased to Chipotle, (the “Property”) in Lake Wales, a city in the Lakeland-Winter Haven MSA located in central Florida, a state with no income tax. Chipotle is under construction with an estimated opening in August 2025. The brand-new Chipotle will include a convenient drive-thru “Chipotlane.” Chipotle operates under a newly established 15-year fee simple triple-net (NNN) lease, with 10% rental increases every five years. The NNN lease structure provides a hands-off, passive ownership experience, while the lease is backed by a corporate guaranty from Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. (NYSE: CMG).

Household growth has also been substantial,rising 40% within 1 mile and 9% within both 3- and 5-miles. This upward trend is expected to continue through 2029, making it a prime location for future development. Within a three mile radius, several ongoing projects are enhancing the surrounding area. In the past year a Panera Bread and Slim Chickens have opened nearby, while a Starbucks will be right near Chipotle when they open later in the year. Additionally, Alera at Hunters Glen, a 240-unit upscale apartment community by Pillar Income Asset Management, is expected to be completed by September 2025.
