In addition to the five buildings, the opportunity includes development rights for approximately 3.7 acres that adjoin University Station. Details included in the ground lease summary located in the appendix.

1. COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE
University Station is the only fully amenitized, purpose-built student housing community serving Xavier students. With high-end finishes, including granite counter tops and stainless-steel appliances, in-unit laundry and separate bedrooms and bathrooms, University Station is also the only Class A student housing complex serving the student population. The asset is newly constructed with Phase I developed in 2014 and Phase II constructed in 2020. Current amenities include swimming pool, study areas, workout facility, game room and theatre room.

2 .PRE-LEASING
Student Housing is pre-leased at 70% as of January 2023 for the 2023/24 school year which is significantly above the preceding school year (54%).

3 HIGH QUALITY OFFICE TENANCY
With TriHealth, an A+ rated health system, and CTI Clinical Trial and Consulting Services, a globally recognized Contract Research Organization, the office tenancy provides secure and stable cash flow.

4. VALUE CREATION
New ownership will be able to significantly upgrade the ‘curb appeal’ of the student housing apartments by upgrading the existing facilities and adding additional amenities. There is also the opportunity to add value through the lease up of vacancy within the retail component of the asset, which is anchored by the Xavier University Bookstore and Starbucks.

5. EXCELLENT LOCATION
University Station is seamlessly integrated with Xavier University’s campus, providing students with immediate access to all the University’s educational facilities. Xavier currently has its "All for One Shop" Bookstore in one of University Station’s retail suites and Xavier recently opened its Health United Building, an on-campus health and wellness facility located across the street from University Station.
