Dear Fellow Stockholder:
We continue to take steps toward the acquisition of high-quality commercial real estate assets that generate sustainable and predictable distributions for our stockholders. As our capital raising effort gains momentum, we are executing on our strategic plan and continue to pay off existing mezzanine loans on our portfolio.
Most recently, we paid off a $2.48 million mezzanine loan associated with the 2012 acquisitions of seven Dollar General retail stores. After this repayment, the remaining principal balance on the mezzanine loans is approximately $9.59 million. We intend to continue reducing our debt level while we build out our acquisitions pipeline, and we currently believe multitenant retail properties can produce the best risk adjusted returns for our stockholders.
