The Inland Private Capital Corporation Story

Top Work Place 2021-2023Inland Private Capital Corporation (IPC) is recognized as the industry leader in securitized 1031 exchange transactions.1 A subsidiary of Inland Real Estate Investment Corporation (Inland Investments) and a part of The Inland Real Estate Group of Companies, Inc. (Inland).

Inland has been delivering value to investors for more than 50 years. Established in 1968 by four Chicago Public School teachers, Inland is involved in every aspect of commercial real estate. Inland’s four founding principals – Dan Goodwin, Bob Baum, Joe Cosenza and Bob Parks – began investing in real estate part-time to earn extra cash while working fulltime as school teachers. In the early 1970s, the group took a leap of faith and started full-time careers in real estate. Their first investors were other teachers, family members and friends. This personal connection and responsibility to investors created a culture of putting investors first, which endures today across Inland’s business entities.

Evolution of IPC

Inland’s early investments consisted of limited partnerships including private, single asset and tax-sheltered partnerships. Partnering with broker dealers to raise capital, Inland offered its first public investment in 1985, which led to further public offerings consisting of mortgage, monthly income, growth and land funds.

 
 

The Tax Reform Act of 1986 permanently changed tax-sheltered limited partnerships. While many sponsors walked away from these investments and lost investor capital, Inland chose to make a commitment to its investors by strategically using 1031 exchanges and moving investors into new investments where they could continue to build equity. In fact, the 1031 exchange investment vehicles used were Walmart stores and, at one time, Inland was Walmart’s largest landlord.

 
 

Surpassing 58,000 total investors, Inland realized the need for a separate organization to meet the growing demand for 1031 exchange transactions and created IPC, formerly Inland Real Estate Exchange Corporation, in 2001. IPC-sponsored private placements through 2023 have been made up of 930 properties comprised of more than 78 million square feet of gross leasable area across the primary commercial real estate sectors.

 
 

Since IPC’s inception in 2001, Inland entities, Inland employees and spouses, Inland directors, Inland officers and affiliated Inland employees have invested more than $96 million in IPC-sponsored offerings, reflecting Inland’s alignment with its investors.

Track Record of Success

As of 12/31/2023, IPC has completed 136 program dispositions since inception producing weighted average total returns at more than 119 percent for each asset class.

2 Weighted Average Total Return (TR) For each full-cycle program, the TR is calculated by dividing the sum of amounts distributed to investors plus the net sale proceeds returned to the investors, by such investors’ capital invested in the program inclusive of all fees and expenses. To determine the weighted average Total Return in each asset class, the Total Return for each program within that asset class is multiplied by the capital invested in that program, divided by the total capital invested in all full-cycle programs within that asset class since inception (2001).

3 Weighted Average Internal Rate of Return (IRR) The internal rate of return, or “IRR,” represents the average annual return over the lifetime of an investment, accounting for the time value of money. For each full-cycle program, the IRR was calculated using the XIRR function of the Microsoft Excel program (or its functional equivalent) to calculate a discount rate for the hold period at which the sum of (a) the present value of all capital contributions invested by the program for a property and (b) the present value of all funds available for distribution from a property, equals zero. To determine the weighted average in each asset class, the IRR for each program within that asset class is multiplied by the capital invested in that program, divided by the total capital invested in all full-cycle programs within that asset class since inception (2001).

Full-Cycle Programs are those programs that no longer own any assets. However, in certain limited situations in which the subject property(ies) were in foreclosure, IPC has negotiated with the lenders and advanced funds to the investors to allow the investors to exchange their beneficial interest in the original program for a proportionate beneficial interest in a new program, in order to continue their Section 1031 exchanges and avoid potential capital gains and/or forgiveness of debt tax liabilities. Because such exchanges result in an investment continuation, the original programs are not considered full-cycle programs for these purposes.
