Union Pacific Exercises Option to Purchase TAYO Real Estate in Texas

April 29, 2015 8:42 AM EDT

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Taylor Consulting, Inc. (OTCBB: TAYO) announced today that Union Pacific Railroad Company exercised its option to purchase its property in Sweetwater, Texas. The transaction will net TAYO a markup of more than 600 percent.

Last year, Third Avenue Development added 47 residential and commercial lots to its portfolio in the town of Sweetwater, where development has been spurred on by a new railroad logistics center and other projects. Union Pacific signed a purchase option to acquire one of those properties in February.

Once the deal is closed, TAYO plans to resume its expansion into new real estate markets nationwide. The company has already targeted potential acquisitions in Nevada, Colorado and other states where the nascent cannabis industry is driving up demand for commercial property, said company CEO Scott Wheeler.

“Our Sweetwater acquisition last year was a smart purchase that will now lead to more of the same,” Wheeler said. “Just as the new railroad logistics center there drove up demand for suitable commercial properties, new cannabis legislation is now driving up demand fast for commercial properties in other states. TAYO has already targeted a number of undervalued properties in these states for acquisition.”

Third Avenue Development, a premier hybrid real estate investment and development company, is building an emerging portfolio of real estate assets for investment, rehabilitation and resale. The company is focused on acquiring properties in the country’s top-performing housing and real estate markets in order to capitalize on the continued recovery and growth of the U.S. real estate marketplace.
