- Mehta plans to improve the quality of retail stores near his residence in the area.
Affiliates controlled by Neil Mehta, of GreenOaks Capital, have acquired seven buildings with storefronts along Fillmore Street in Pacific Heights, San Francisco. The properties were purchased from mom-and-pop landlords who had owned them for decades. The buying spree began in January with the acquisition of the defunct Clay Theater and a neighboring building for $11 million.
Mehta’s goal seems to be enhancing the quality of retail stores near his home in Pacific Heights. Two years ago, he purchased a mansion in the area for $17.6 million. Mehta reportedly plans to invest tens of millions of dollars in real estate near the Clay Theater to support locally owned shops and restaurants.
The properties purchased by Mehta’s LLCs along Fillmore Street were sold at prices significantly above their market values, with plans to revitalize the retail corridor. The strategic acquisitions suggest a long-term vision for improving the commercial landscape in the upscale Pacific Heights neighborhood.
