MESA, ARIZ. (March 20, 2025) – Streamline Capital Group, the investment arm of The Streamline Companies, is pleased to announce that industry expert Gannon M. Coffman has been named Director of Investor Relations & Capital Strategies.

Coffman possesses more than 11 years of experience in commercial real estate finance and equity placement. He will be pivotal in raising capital, structuring investment opportunities, and managing investor relations, ensuring that Streamline’s partners benefit from strategic, high-yield real estate investments.

Coffman has raised more than $80 million in private capital, working closely with high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth individuals, family offices, and institutional investors. His expertise spans multifamily, retail, and industrial acquisitions, as well as development financing and structured offerings under Regulation D 506(b) and 506(c).

His ability to strategically match capital with high-performing assets has made him a trusted advisor to developers, syndicators, and wealth managers.

“Gannon’s deep experience in real estate finance and capital strategies makes him a perfect fit for Streamline Capital Group,” said David J. Hrizak, CEO of The Streamline Companies. “His proven track record in raising capital and structuring successful investments will be instrumental as we continue to scale and provide high-quality opportunities for our investors. We are thrilled to have him on board.”

Before joining Streamline Capital Group, Coffman served as COO for a family office, overseeing a 4,000-unit multifamily portfolio. In this role, he gained hands-on experience in asset management, capital deployment, underwriting, and deal structuring, giving him a deep understanding of the full real estate investment lifecycle.

Coffman’s background in feasibility analysis, acquisition underwriting, and promoting structure design enables him to structure investments that maximize returns while mitigating risk.

“I’m thrilled to join Streamline Capital Group at such a dynamic time in its growth,” Coffman said. “My passion has always been connecting investors with high-quality real estate opportunities that generate strong returns while mitigating risk. Streamline’s vision and track record of strategic investments align perfectly with my expertise in capital structuring and investor relations. I look forward to expanding our network of partners and driving innovative investment solutions that create lasting value.”

Coffman, who holds a Masters in Real Estate Development (MRED) from the University of Arizona, is Certified Qualified Family Office Professional (QFOP).

A native of Chandler, Arizona, Coffman gives back to the community through coaching youth sports and mentoring. He is the proud father of four children. Away from the office he enjoys hiking, attending sporting events, and traveling with his family.

Streamline Capital Group entered the Arizona market in 2023 with the $5 million acquisition of a two-building complex totaling 39,000 SF, rebranded as The Grand on 44th, in the Arcadia Lite neighborhood. The property underwent nearly $1 million in renovations to modernize the facility and convert vacant spaces into ready-to-move-in suites, sparking interest in the asset.

Last year, Streamline Capital Group also acquired a Mesa office building at 1234 S. Power Road for $2.8 million, rebranding it as Twelve 34 South Power. It totals 13 suites, including the office of The Streamline Companies.

Liv Communities christens Liv + Union Peak, an amenity-rich, 55+ community in North Phoenix

Liv Communities christens Liv + Union Peak, an amenity-rich, 55+ community in North Phoenix

     PHOENIX, ARIZ. (March 11, 2025) ‒ Liv+ Union Peak, the newest addition to the diverse housing options in North Phoenix’s vibrant Norterra and Union Park communities, recently celebrated its grand opening with a ribbon-cutting ceremony.

The flagship 55+ age-qualified community at 25400 N. 21st Ave., offers an exceptional lifestyle for residents, blending upscale amenities with a friendly and engaging environment. Liv Communities, a developer and operator with an extensive track record of well-appointed rental communities known for offering robust lifestyle programming, curated an exceptional array of amenities to enhance an active and social lifestyle.

Liv+ Union Peak totals 145 units. It includes one-, two- and three-bedroom homes, some with garages.

“The Liv+ story goes back a decade. When USAA sold the land around its corporate headquarters, there was discussion about creating a vibrant community. USAA partnered with Sunbelt Holdings and turned that vision into a reality,” said Liv Executive Chairman Scott Brooks. “CBRE introduced us to Sunbelt President John Graham and his team. They unveiled the big plan for Union Park. They showed us where the community center would go; where they wanted a school in the community.

“They said they would like a senior community right in the middle. That was music to our ears. We had just opened LivGenerations Agritopia in Gilbert, and felt it was a great match to what we offered. For years, we offered full-service senior living – assisted living, memory care – with our LivGenerations product.

“We began thinking of a better solution to those ages 55 and better. People still seeking an active social life, continuing down a healthy journey, but more affordable. That’s when Liv+ was born. Our residents live their best lives; we live our best lives as well,” Brooks said.

Liv+ Union Peak is situated in the heart of Norterra and Union Park, which are sought-after communities in North Phoenix known for their blend of urban convenience and natural beauty. Liv+ Union Peak enjoys direct access to major transportation routes, including I-17 and the Loop 101, and is in proximity to retail and dining destinations at The Shops at Norterra.

Nearby outdoor activities include hiking and biking trails at the Sonoran Preserve and Deem Hills Recreation Area, Norterra Canyon Park, The 500 Club (golfing), and cultural and artistic events such as a local farmers’ market and art classes and workshops.

“We’re thrilled to add another vital member to our community,” said Scott Yath, President of the Anthem Area Chamber of Commerce. “We’re happy with their decision to come here and celebrate the opening of this great project.”

Liv+ Union Peak features a sparkling lap pool and spa, pickleball and bocce ball courts, and even a pet spa. Other community amenities include a clubhouse, co-working spaces, a game room, fitness center, wellness spa with massage room and sauna, yoga studio and yoga lawn, rentable garages, carports, storage areas, community garden, outdoor barbecue and lounge areas, and a fire pit.

Apartment amenities include quartz countertops, designer interiors, water leak sensors, under cabinet lighting, Liv Smart home automation, ceiling fans, private patio/balcony, barrier-free units, walk-in closets, private wireless router in each unit, full-size washer and dryer, and USB outlets.

MT Builders served as the general contractor; Todd & Associates Inc. was the architect of record. Other project team members included Envision Design Solutions, interior design; Airpark Signs & Graphics, branding; Wood Patel, engineering; and Bakkum Noelke, structural engineering.

“This is an exciting day for us, bringing the first Liv+ product to the marketplace; the reality that it is today,” said Liv CEO Kevin Lindquist. “As others have said, this project has been years and thousands of hours in the making. Together, we have achieved something truly great for the community and our current and future residents.”

Taking part in the ribbon cutting at Liv+ Union Peak are (left to right) Chuck Finzer, Kevin Robleto, Heidi Arave-Noonan, Scott Yath, Abner Diaz, Katie Chambers, Don Hoekstra, William Fettis, Eric Johnston, Kevin Lindquist, and Scott Brooks.

Medical Office Brokers facilitates sale of Hudson Place, a 55,367 SF Tempe development property

Medical Office Brokers facilitates sale of Hudson Place, a 55,367 SF Tempe development property

     PHOENIX, ARIZ.  (February 19, 2025) – Hudson Place, a 55,367 SF commercial property comprising 15 buildings, has officially sold in a transaction that recently closed for $11.499 million.

The sale marks a unique shift in the property’s trajectory. It was originally purchased in December 2023 for an office condominium conversion, with each of the 15 buildings being marketed for individual sale.

The seller was represented by Marina Hammersmith, CCIM, and Tyrel Williams, CPM, of M|T HealthcaRE Partners at Medical Office Brokers. Hudson Place is located at 2405 E. Southern Ave., in Tempe, Arizona”

In a strategic move, the new owner stepped in to circumvent the conversion plan, making a competitive offer to acquire the entire property. The buyer intends to land bank Hudson Place for future development, ensuring long-term investment potential in the evolving Tempe commercial landscape

“This transaction underscores the dynamic nature of commercial real estate and the importance of adaptability in investment strategies,” Hammersmith said. “The limited supply of medical and general-use condominiums, coupled with strong market interest and the projected price points for individual building sales, created a compelling value-add position for the seller.

“This combination also generated a sense of urgency for the buyer to acquire the entire property before the conversion was finalized, recognizing the long-term potential for the site,” Hammersmith added.

“It was an honor to be involved in this unique project,” Williams said. “Even though we didn’t get to bring our original business plan to fruition, it was rewarding to see the Hudson Place property go to a great organization to further its important role in this community.”

These enhancements not only improve accessibility for surrounding businesses but also set the foundation for future industrial growth in the region. A standout feature of the project is the inclusion of two high-end spec suites, providing adaptable and functional space to meet the needs of a wide range of industrial tenants.

Wespac Construction collaborated closely with Deutsch Architecture Group and ViaWest Group, to bring this vision to life and ensure the highest standards of quality and functionality.
