Century Equities

Century Equities, Inc. specializes in structuring customized real estate investments for advisory firms, individuals, and other groups. Specifically, these investment opportunities involve properties leased to a single tenant for an extended period, providing long-term, low-risk, economic returns while benefiting from certain tax advantages. Leases are typically “triple net” in nature, meaning that the landlord has limited or no responsibilities for maintenance, insurance, and taxes. These programs can be structured as Limited Partnerships, Limited Liability Companies, or other structures depending upon the needs of our clients. Financial advisory firms, family offices, trusts, companies, and individuals seeking attractive returns and tax savings should consider contacting Century about whether an existing investment or custom structured new investment can be a part of an overall investment strategy Investment Criteria: Long-term Lease/Rent Increases – Stability and increased cash flow -Initial lease terms of approximately 10 years or more enable predictable cash flow. -Rent escalations during the lease term (and later renewals) often lead to increasing cash returns. Smart Financing – Maximizes cash flow, tax advantages, and predictability -Century typically uses low leverage and a 10-year fixed rate to maintain a conservative and predictable return. Tax Advantages – Significant tax advantages achieved from the strategic model -Financing generates tax-deductible interest expense. -Gradual write-off of the cost of buildings, land improvements (e.g. parking lots), and other fees and costs generates tax-deductible depreciation and amortization expense.
