WHY INVEST IN THE CENTRAL ILLINOIS CORRIDOR?
The Central Illinois Corridor, anchored by Peoria, Ottawa, Morton, and Macomb, reaches over 513.6K people across 211.8K households, with an average household income of $92.1K+. This provides a compelling blend of stability, growth, and diversification, especially when viewed through the lens of value investing. Landlord fundamentals are reinforced by the corridor’s interstate connectivity (I-74/I-80/I-39), strong mobility (˜1.85 vehicles/household), and ongoing industrial/logistics investment with blue-chip anchors (e.g., Caterpillar, OSF, Frito-Lay, Trader Joe’s, Ameren, Komatsu), which collectively support steady traffic, employment, and spend.
For value-minded investors, fee-simple positions in these infill submarkets offer secure absolute NNN income (with corporate guarantees and built-in escalators) plus long-term land appreciation; paired with accelerated depreciation (per buyer’s tax counsel), the result is a compelling blend of predictable cash flow, tax efficiency, and durable exit optionality.
