Property Description
565 W. Randolph St offers investors a unique opportunity to acquire a prime asset in Chicago's West Loop, a neighborhood celebrated for its dynamic blend of commercial and residential growth. This 59,981 SF Class C office building, constructed in 1872, combines historical charm with modern functionality, featuring both a passenger elevator and a freight elevator. At $250 per SF with a purchase price of $14,995,000, this asset provides immediate stable cash flow along with significant value-add potential through a strategic conversion plan. The property is currently 98% occupied, with nine tenants, including ground-floor anchors Proxi and Sepia-two Michelin-starred dining establishments that recently renewed their leases for another five years with additional renewal options. This established retail presence ensures strong income stability for investors. Key Conversion Opportunity: Office to Multifamily Apartments This asset presents a compelling opportunity for an office-to-residential conversion, allowing investors to capitalize on the increasing demand for multifamily units in the West Loop. The property offers a phased approach to conversion: 43,624 SF (72.8% of the building) can become available by the end of December 2024, providing the majority of the building for potential apartment conversion immediately after acquisition. An additional 1,642 SF (2.7% of the building) will become available between March and November 2026 as leases expire, offering further flexibility for phased redevelopment. The final 5,550 SF (9.2% of the building) will become available between January and April 2029 upon lease expirations, enabling investors to continue generating income from office leases while gradually converting spaces to residential use. Strategic Investment Potential This asset allows for a phased redevelopment strategy, maximizing cash flow while taking advantage of conversion opportunities as leases roll over. The property's prime location offers proximity to top-tier transportation, shopping, dining, and green spaces, making it highly attractive to prospective residential tenants. By converting the office floors to apartments, investors can tap into the strong rental market in the West Loop, while still benefiting from the stable income of long-term retail tenants. With strategic upgrades and a phased conversion plan, investors can elevate rental rates, attract premium residential tenants, and significantly enhance the property's value. The unique combination of historical architecture, Michelin-starred retail tenants, and conversion flexibility positions 565 W. Randolph St as a standout investment in one of Chicago's most sought-after neighborhoods.

HUD Foreclosures

HUD foreclosures and VA Foreclosures are some of the best homes to buy when price is part of the equation. As with most Americans, price is always a concern. If not buying the same house for less, why not buy more house for the same dollar invested? When looking for a good deal it is hard to do better than the VA or HUD foreclosures market. The simple truth is that there are just more VA and HUD homes on the market, as they represent such a large number of mortgages that are generated each year. This translates into more foreclosures just by the magnitude of difference between all others comparing to the two largest. The two largest also being government owned and operated means that they have less time to wait to make money back on the home. The FHA is especially known for selling HUD homes for less than the average sales price in a given area. FHA foreclosures represent a fraction of HUD but they are still a significant number of homes and both should be considered. VA (Veterans Administration) and HUD (Housing and Urban Development) have different and unique opportunities for the buyer. Both are often forgiven for the local taxes normally associated with the purchase of a home (this is on a county by county basis). Be sure to ask the local title company or escrow company to look into it for you before closing as this is often missed due to their are not used to dealing with the 2 to 3 percent of the market that VA and HUD foreclosures represent.

Foreclosure Listings Increasing

As the market settled after the mortgage meltdown foreclosure listings also settled and fewer homes were on the market with a placard reading “Bank Foreclosure” in big red lettering. This was a good thing for the entire real estate market. Having an abundance of foreclosures brings the entire market down and it makes it harder for home owners, who would like to move, to get the appropriate price for their home as a similar home down the same street was sold for substantially less and the appraiser is using the foreclosure as a comparable sale. This is just one of the problems when there are too many foreclosure listings in any area. Another issue is the television set that sits in everyone’s living room harping about the price of homes based on the number of foreclosures and this constant barrage of negative information makes most people sit on the sidelines waiting for the market to either implode completely or to correct itself. Meanwhile while they wait, others are buying foreclosure listings and making great investments. Whatever the reason, a market can only handle so many foreclosure listings at any given time. The more foreclosures, the lower the market gets and this is a lesson the banks that were foreclosing and selling off realized too late. The market and their investments would have been better off if there had not been a rush to divest themselves of the toxic assets made more toxic by their own actions.
