Bellingham, WA 98225 Hilltop Restaurant Marketing Package Executive Summary 5645 Guide Meridian | Bellingham, WA 98226 Hilltop Restaurant Executive Summary Kulshan Commercial Investment Real Estate is pleased to present the Hilltop Restaurant in Bellingham, WA for Sale and Leaseback by the restaurant owner/operator, Tom Kilpatrick. Located in the center of the populated part of Whatcom County, the restaurant trade area includes Bellingham, Ferndale, Lynden, within about a 7 mile drive. The Hilltop Restaurant has been operated continuously since 1959 and has a loyal patron base; it has been operated by Tom Kilpatrick since 2001 including the construction of a completely new restaurant building in 2004. The building and grounds are very attractive, with good visibility, parking, and appeal. The property also includes a separate catering kitchen for related off-premises catering businesses which also support the restaurant operator income. Mr. Kilpatrick intends to sell the building and lease it back as an operator under terms of new lease to be finalized with the successful buyer. The Investor’s and Seller’s attorneys will interface to create a mutually agreeable document with business terms that reflect the returns the Investor requires with reasonable lease terms the operator can support with the restaurant operation. Restaurant sales volumes are more than sufficient to support an initial base rent (on an absolute net rent basis) of $112, 000, with annual increases of 2%, and market rate adjustments every 7 years, with an initial lease term of 10 years. Four five-year options are also planned, providing great continuity and market rents for the new Investor/Owner. This marketing package answers many questions of an Investor prospect; additional information is available in a Due Diligence Vault and through the Owner, and can be made available when appropriate to qualified Investors. Investors and brokers are asked to schedule full property tours through the Listing Brokers, although the restaurant is open for business seven days a week. Please do not talk to the staff about the potential sale of the property or anything other than normal patron business. Due to the attractive return offered to the Investor through the initial rent level and the asking price, there is high demand for the property and time is of the essence. Please contact the Listing Broker or your representative to create a Purchase and Sale Agreement, subject to acceptable Leaseback terms. The Seller will respond to all offers. All information furnished regarding property for sale, rental or financing is from sources deemed reliable, but no warranty or 114 West Magnolia Street representation is made as to the accuracy thereof and same is submitted subject to errors, omissions, change of price, rental or other Suite 400 - 146 conditions, prior sale, lease or financing or withdrawal without notice.

  • Waterfront Land Acquisition
    Capital Project WATERFRONT Proposal LAND ACQUISITION 2017-2019 Active Minds Changing Lives ACQUISITION 2017-19 Biennium Higher Education Project Proposal Waterfront Land Acquisition Western Washington University Institution Western Washington University Project Title Waterfront Land Acquisition Project Location (City) Bellingham 1. Problem Statement (short description of the project – the needs and the benefits) As the third largest public university in Washington in terms of enrollment and the smallest in terms of campus size, Western Washington University must expand its physical campus in order to continue to meet its responsibility and mission to provide access to quality higher education in the northwest region of the state. Western’s enrollment has grown to 15,332 students (14,194 FTE students) in the 2015-16 academic year, representing a 13% enrollment increase since the 2001-02 academic year and far exceeding the University’s planned enrollment capacity of 12,500 FTE students. Responsible stewardship of Western’s future involves not only planning for future enrollment growth but also consideration of the State’s educational attainment goals, including the Results Washington goal of producing 149,000 postsecondary credentials by 2023. Refer to Appendix B. Given that Western’s main campus is landlocked by neighborhoods and the Sehome Arboretum, it has limited options for expansion. The University’s strategic plan specifies that enrollment growth beyond the 12,500 main campus capacity must consider capital development opportunities for additional capacity. Western has a unique opportunity to acquire 6 acres of redevelopment property on Bellingham’s downtown waterfront through a combination of State investment ($4.5 million) and the sale of existing WWU property.
