Wilderness Place

Wilderness exterior 1

Wilderness Place is a life science building located in Boulder, CO, just northeast of the University of Colorado, within the Central Boulder life science submarket. The property serves as the headquarters for a leading biotech company. The tenant has occupied the property since 2008 and has invested a significant amount of capital into their space to build it out to specifically facilitate its R&D and equipment needs.

Boulder's life science market has demonstrated strong and growing market fundamentals due to a strong life science employment growth, number and concentration of key scientists, government and venture funding, and number and concentration of life science graduates, high-tech workers and benefits from significant barriers to entry.

Wilderness place represents an opportunity to acquire a core life science property in a strong market at an NOI yield which supports the REIT's objective to distribute a net 5%+ annual dividend to investors.
