Long Lofts is a boutique, loft-style multifamily community located in the heart of Historic Petersburg, offering investors stabilized cash flow with durable physical characteristics and timeless appeal. The Property includes a multitude of unique one-bedroom floor plans featuring open-concept layouts and modern finishes, appealing to renters seeking well-located housing with high end amenities at accessible price points. Notably, the all one-bedroom unit mix represents a strategic advantage, aligning with the deepest and most liquid segment of renter demand—including young professionals, students, and single-person households. This configuration supports strong leasing velocity, simplified operations, and eliminates roommate friction, ultimately enhancing income durability. Average in-place rents at Long Lofts ($1,057 for 1BD units) remain attractive relative to competing newly delivered product, providing a strong foundation for both stable occupancy and rent growth. Leasing performance at nearby properties further validates the depth of demand. Market Street Lofts, a recently delivered, amenity-rich community, is achieving 1BD rents in the $1,165-$1,250+ range, while the nearby Candy Factory has demonstrated 1BD rents in the $1,245-$1,395 range. Petersburg is gaining strong economic momentum, driven by major investments such as the $1.4B Live! Casino & Hotel Virginia, a new data center campus, and ongoing Old Towne redevelopment. These projects are expected to boost jobs, wages, and housing demand, supporting a positive long-term outlook for the rental market.
