TAYO CEO Outlines Year of Growth and Change in Open Letter to Investors

Taylor Consulting, Inc. (OTCBB: TAYO) CEO Scott Wheeler recounted the company’s momentous year in 2014 as well as its ambitious plans for the future today in an open letter to the company’s shareholders:

Dear shareholders,

Having acquired nearly 50 properties this year, 2014 will go in the books as a grand one for Taylor Consulting (TAYO). This year held many exciting changes and opportunities. Chief amongst them, of course, was the company’s decision to expand our business model from the sports consulting industry into an entirely new market: real estate. In order to capitalize on the historic economic boom generated in the U.S. by the growth of non-traditional oil and gas drilling across the country, TAYO highly prioritized the accumulation of new real estate assets in the nation’s hottest markets for job creation and relocations. In 2014, that meant building a strong and competitive portfolio in Texas, the epicenter of the oil and gas boom and the driver of much of the nation’s economic growth. In order to pursue this new opportunity for expansion, TAYO created a new real estate division, Third Avenue Development, LLC.

According to Zillow Real Estate Market Reports for the first quarter of the year, the state’s four largest metros all experienced peak home values in 2014. The explosive demand left the supply of housing in Texas at its lowest level in nearly 20 years, setting the stage for potentially huge profits to be made by building, rehabilitating or upgrading existing single- and multi-family properties for rent or resale.

Accordingly, Third Avenue Development has aggressively pursued promising real estate assets in Texas this year. The company has acquired a 50-unit storage complex and a one-acre Interstate frontage lot in the small town of Merkel, where the region’s boom has brought in a flood of new residents and businesses, including big-box retailers. The real estate division also added 47 residential and commercial lots located in the nearby town of Sweetwater, where development has been spurred on by a new railroad logistics center and other projects.

Third Avenue Development also initiated two large purchases that remain pending as 2014 draws to a close: a 10-acre tract in the West Texas town of Tye, and a bulk lot purchase of residential and commercial lots in Sweetwater. We plan to finalize these significant acquisitions early in the coming year.

And that’s not all. Perhaps our company’s most important asset purchase this year has been our acquisition of White Buffalo Property Solutions, a full-service, licensed Texas Real Estate Broker (LLC). White Buffalo has opened many new doors in our mission to build a strong, competitive portfolio of assets in the region, and will be crucial to our efforts in 2015 to expand into red-hot Texas markets including Houston, Austin and Dallas—three metros leading the U.S. economic recovery.

In the new year, the great (and growing) state of Texas will continue to be an area of major focus for our company. A report this year from the Texas Association of Realtors shows that Texas continues to be a sought-after location for people moving from other states. According to the report, based on U.S. Census data, Texas gained more out-of-state residents than any other state in 2013, with 584,034 people moving here from out of state. Texas is expected to have the nation’s fastest annual job growth rate at 2.7% over the next five years, according to data from Moody’s Analytics. Third Avenue Development will remain dedicated to accumulating high-potential assets in Texas and the nation’s other hottest real estate markets.

As we continue on our path to success, I would like to personally thank all of our investors for their support in 2014. Thanks to you, we are now poised to enjoy our best year ever in 2015. We look forward to you being a big part of it.

Sincerely,

Scott Wheeler
