4 Ram Plaza Case Study SIGNIFICANT ACCOMPLISHMENTS: 5 new leases signed in 16 months with credit tenants. Stabilization achieved despite disruptive foreclosure process. Successful disposition through national Auction.com platform with 14 bids by 5 local/regional/national bidders. Ram Plaza, an attractive 16,181 square foot unanchored retail strip center is located on Broadway Avenue, close to downtown Boise, Parkcenter s prestigious business parks and the Boise State University campus. This highly visible center enjoyed a strong daytime population but the project and its tenants were significantly impacted by the recession that gripped the local and national economies in Thornton Oliver Keller was awarded the leasing and management of the property by LNR Property LLC after it foreclosed on Ram Plaza. The property s performance was severely anemic and vacancy surpassed 60%. LNR, the country s largest commercial real estate investment provider, tasked Thornton Oliver Keller with attracting and filling the center with credit tenants. The Retail brokerage team of Mark Schlag and Ben Zamzow began a targeted, aggressive marketing campaign showcasing the project to both the local brokerage community and national retailers who complimented the center s customer demographic. Simultaneously, Candice Ranson-Hartman, the project s Property Manager, utilized exceptional efforts to remedy latent property issues (landscaping, parking, signage and power supply) while building a strong, personal rapport with both prospective and existing tenants. Within 18 months, the brokerage and property management teams had stabilized the property (only 2,700 square feet was available), dropping vacancy to 17%. Mark and Ben successfully signed five new leases with Extreme Pizza, My Fit Foods, Palm Beach Tan and Qdoba. Candice s management strategy contributed greatly as existing tenants opted to stay in the project despite five different tenant build-out projects which necessitated numerous contractors and construction issues on site, for months. Ram Plaza s ownership was so pleased with Thornton Oliver Keller s results that it decided to offer the property for sale through Auction.com two years later. Once again, a targeted marketing strategy inclusive of local and national parties delivered multiple strong offers. A winning bid was secured by a local investor within two months. Extensive knowledge of the property and leasing results solidified Thornton Oliver Keller s ability to retain both brokerage and property management services under the new ownership.

5 Peterson Chevrolet Case Study SIGNIFICANT ACCOMPLISHMENTS: Opinion of value targets a very accurate sales price range. Property professionally managed by Thornton Oliver Keller and tax liability successfully appealed. Local owner-user purchases project in a relocation move. After being approached by the owner of an 87,000 square foot auto dealership located on Fairview Ave., John Stevens and Michael Ballantyne prepared an Opinion of Value for the well known and highly visible Boise property. At the time, Peterson s Chevrolet occupied the property and was paying healthy rents. The seller selected Thornton Oliver Keller to list the property for sale, which was then brought to market six months later. Upon its entrance to the local market, the property generated significant attention and also received multiple offers, including an RFP by the Governmental Services Agency (GSA). However, the seller was unable to accept any of these offers due to financial constraints. John and Michael were instructed to continue marketing the property. A year and a half later, Peterson s Chevrolet had vacated the property and Thornton Oliver Keller was asked to manage the property as well. A successful tax appeal by Thornton Oliver Keller followed which significantly reduced the property s tax liability. The listing price then moved into the price range of probable value as set forth in the Opinion of Value. Almost immediately thereafter, a Purchase and Sale Agreement was executed between the seller and a local owner-user who was interested in relocating their business. The transaction closed within three months, commanding a price on the high-end of Thornton Oliver Keller s valuation.
