“We are pleased to provide our innovative modern ground lease capital to facilitate Admiral Capital’s acquisitions,” said Tim Doherty, Safehold Co-Head of Investments. “And, in the process, expand our presence in Texas which represents one of our key target markets.”

Both Safehold™ ground leases feature fixed annual base rent escalations and a 99-year lease term with periodic CPI lookbacks. An institutional bank lender provided the leasehold loan.

The two new Safehold™ ground leases are beneath Parkwood Place, an office building in Plano, TX, and Duke Bridges III, an office building in Frisco, TX. Both properties are well located near the headquarters and regional offices of numerous Fortune 1000 companies and proximate to several highly-amenitized, mixed-use master planned communities including Legacy Town Center and Legacy West.
