Marcus & Millichap is pleased to present the opportunity to purchase the fee simple interest in Bittersweet Plaza, a 36,531 square foot grocery shadow anchored retail center located in Mishawaka, just outside South Bend, Indiana. Priced at a 7.37% CAP on the current, in-place net operating income, the building is positioned to meaningfully cash flow at the asking price. The most compelling aspect of this opportunity is the optionality with which one can approach several complimentary value-add strategies. Bittersweet Plaza is currently 68% occupied, with two vacant suites that will significantly add to the property’s cash flow once leased. The plaza will be conveyed along with a single tenant, triple drive-thru PNC Bank – with notably high deposits – as well as an additional half-acre developable outparcel. Adjacent to the outparcel, Martin’s leases a fuel station that is currently paying $15,000 annually. Though Martin’s has two years of term remaining on that lease, as well as two flat 5-year option periods, the longterm potential of the fuel station is enormous. It is not as if this upside can all be unlocked overnight, but for a patient investor with time on their side, this is a rare opportunity to create value over the entirety of their hold period, while enjoying cash flow along the way. By all accounts, Martin’s Super Market is high performing, and though it is owned separately, Martin’s is still responsible for their pro rata share of parking lot expenses, and as a result are contributing substantially to the gross income of Bittersweet Plaza. This is important because Martin’s contributions to overall CAMs help ease the amount of expense leakage that one would typically see in a 68% occupied retail center. Martin’s Super Market is known as the dominant grocer in this part of the country. Martin’s is owned by C&S Wholesale Grocers, the 8th largest privately held company in the United States.
