The Turn-Key Solution for Acquiring, Financing, and Managing Commercial Real Estate

Our Managed-Direct Ownership® ("MDO") program is a structured real estate investment vehicle for investors who want a complete bundle of services for acquiring, financing, and managing a single property or a customized portfolio of commercial properties. After an initial consultation, investors will be presented with properties best matching their stated criteria, including pricing and cash flow projections. Our cost analysis includes all costs of the transaction and are guaranteed not to be exceeded. Additionally, Kingsbarn will sign for the loan guaranties, making the mortgage truly "non-recourse" to the investor.

We sometimes refer to our Managed-Direct Ownership® program also as a "Structured 1031 Exchange." We coordinate directly with our investors' exchange accommodator, so that the identification and exchange process is seamless. This "turn-key" strategy also includes all legal work, escrow and closing, and includes a tax opinion for investors who are in a 1031 exchange. This program is especially attractive for investors who want a truly managementfree investment but want to maintain control of major investment decisions, such as major leases, refinancing, and deciding when to sell the property.
