Stan Johnson Company Completes Sale of Children's Learning Center for $3,800,000

Tulsa, Okla. (9/17/15) – Stan Johnson Company, one of the nation’s premier net lease investment brokerage firms, has completed the sale of Ladybird Academy located in Clermont, FL for $3,800,000. Ladybird Academy combines preschool early learning and education with high quality child care for children ages 6 weeks through 12 years. In 2014, Daniel Herrold, David Annett and team completed a $16,500,000 sale leaseback for five Ladybird Academy corporately owned and operated schools. During the consulting relationship, Herrold and Annett developed a relationship with a future franchisee of the preschool concept that referred their developer to the team to sell their new build-to-suit location as well. Annett said, “This is a perfect example of how an Owner/User can elect to unlock capital that is otherwise hidden in their real estate via sale leaseback to expand their business. Ultimately, we were able to achieve a win-win-win for the Franchisor, Franchisee and Developer through these sales. We are very happy with the outcome.” The Ladybird Academy franchisee executed a 15-year lease with annual rent increases on the property prior to this transaction.
