Ownership of Black Oak Marina starting discussing the potential sale of the property a few years ahead of the actual transaction. This was largely due to price being outside the range of expectation, to which LIPG continued to work with ownership over the following three years. The marina is predominantly storage income, and ownership had added another 25+ wet slips to further increase NOI, in addition to rent increases and increased boat rental revenue.

Hiring LIPG After Previous Marketing Efforts
In June 2019, the LIPG marina team brought All Seasons Marina to market for $8,000,000. The owner had the property on the market for several years, with many different brokers during that time. This created a very challenging marketing process because LIPG was faced with a situation where the most serious buyers had already seen the property (and likely made conclusions about the asset), and when a property sits on market for a long time, it inherently creates a poor stigma.

After interviewing against the other major golf brokers for this assignment, Prudential selected Steven Ekovich to lead the pricing and marketing strategy for Ford’s Colony – a three-course golf country club and resort in Williamsburg, Virginia.
