The purchase price was $5 million which equates to approximately $36,500 per unit and reflects The Siegel Group’s proven strategy of acquiring value-added assets at below-market prices which it is able to quickly renovate and reposition. SASCO Properties, an affiliate of the Siegel Group, will assume operational control and immediately begin a substantial renovation of both the exterior and interior of the property to correct years of deferred maintenance issues while converting the property to its Flexible-Stay program. Additionally, plans are also underway to landscape the grounds and construct both a new pool and a retail component to attract residents. Due to the existing deferred maintenance combined with a 50% occupancy rate and the previous owners neglect and mismanagement of the complex, the property possesses significant upside potential. Judith Perez, Executive Vice-President of SASCO Properties states that, based on the company’s proven business model, occupancy will quickly fall in line with that of other Siegel Suites locations, increasing to 93-96% once the renovation is completed. The property will be renamed Siegel Suites Las Vegas Blvd. and operate under the Siegel Suites brand which provides quality accommodations to customers seeking short and long-term residences that provide flexible terms as well as a host of amenities and services without the constraints of a long-term lease agreement. Despite the challenging credit markets of today, The Siegel Group’s unwavering and ongoing focus of purchasing only value-added multi-residential properties at discounted prices in this turbulent environment demonstrates the strength of its business model as well as its belief and long-term commitment in the viability of the Las Vegas market.
