Black & Veatch to serve as exclusive sales agent and industry partner

WASHINGTON, March 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Grain Management, LLC (“Grain”), a leading private investment firm focused on digital infrastructure and solutions to the global broadband industry, today announced it has reached an agreement with T-Mobile and are in exclusive discussions to finalize a transaction for the acquisition of all of T-Mobile’s 800 MHz spectrum, a nationwide portfolio of low-band spectrum providing an average 13.6 MHz of depth across the U.S., for a combination of cash and Grain’s 600 MHz spectrum portfolio.

Grain and T-Mobile have filed for required regulatory approvals, the receipt of which will be conditions to the closing. Following the closing of the transaction, Grain initially intends to make the acquired spectrum portfolio available to U.S. utilities to support mission-critical communications, improve grid resilience, and enhance emergency response capabilities. Black & Veatch, which has experience working with more than 1,300 power utilities, will facilitate discussions with U.S. utilities to enable the implementation and operation of private wireless broadband networks for utilities across the country.

“As the energy sector undergoes rapid modernization, utilities require reliable and secure communication networks to support grid operations and disaster response,” said David Grain, Founder & CEO of Grain Management. “This spectrum investment reinforces our commitment to digital infrastructure that can enable critical industries to operate more efficiently and securely.”

The 800 MHz spectrum band is known for its superior propagation properties that enable extensive coverage, reliability, and in-building penetration, making it ideally suited for critical utility applications. Grain believes this spectrum offers utilities a dedicated option to enhance resilience and control over their existing communications infrastructure.

“This proposed transaction with Grain continues T-Mobile’s track record of optimizing our spectrum resources for the benefit of consumers, putting this 800 MHz portfolio in the hands of a nimble private equity investor that can maximize usage of the spectrum, thus contributing to U.S. 5G leadership that is critical to our economy,” said Dirk Mosa, Senior Vice President, Spectrum, Partnerships and Acquisitions for T-Mobile.  “We have also already deployed most of Grain’s 600 MHz portfolio of spectrum that we gained access to through this deal, further enhancing T-Mobile’s customer experiences on the nation’s leading 5G network in a number of key markets.”

Black & Veatch will guide utilities with the end-to-end planning, implementation, and operations of their intended private LTE 5G networks. “Grain’s acquisition and intended mobilization of 800 MHz of spectrum presents an opportunity for utilities to secure and protect their networks and improve efficiency and operational resiliency,” said Jim Moos, president of Black & Veatch’s Technology, Commercial and Industrial sector. “Our collective goal is to help utilities build and maintain dedicated networks that ensure operational security and reliability.”

This acquisition underscores Grain Management’s continued focus on investing in essential digital infrastructure assets that support economic growth, technological advancement, and national security.

Belwood Investments Accepts Cash Offer on Iconic 24844 Malibu Road

Published

on

By

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., March 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Belwood Investments, the fractional luxury real estate investing app, today announced it accepted an offer on 24844 Malibu Road, one of the few private homes in the United States designed by renowned Japanese architect Tadao Ando, less than a week after the property was listed for sale.

“Nearly 500 people invested in this iconic Malibu property through Belwood Investments, and its sale marks a major milestone in our efforts to make luxury real estate investments accessible to everyone,” said Steven “Bo” Belmont, the founder and CEO of Belwood Investments. “In accepting this strong offer, we’re bringing our investors a payday 14 months earlier than expected.”

Purchased for over $57 million in 2021, 24844 Malibu Road was significantly altered and damaged by its previous owner. Belwood Investments raised over $6.4 million from investors, who contributed amounts ranging from $1,000 to $1 million, to buy the home for $21 million in September and begin restoring it to its former glory.

The property features Ando’s signature trademark design of “smooth-as-silk” concrete throughout. Constructed of around 1,200 tons of concrete, 200 tons of steel reinforcement, and 12 massive pylons driven more than 60 feet into the sand, the home is a resilient structure on southern California’s coastline.

After Belwood Investments secured the home’s original builder, Marmol Radziner, received approved plans and permits from the city, completed electrical work and began construction, the property received significant interest from potential buyers.

“Selling now means the buyer can put their own creative finishes on this architectural gem, while we return funds to our investors in less than six months, allowing them to invest in more properties,” said Belmont. “Our top priority is delivering strong returns to investors as quickly as possible, and this is a win for all.”

Belwood Investments offers fractional real estate investments through its mobile app, providing anyone the opportunity to invest in short-term luxury home flips starting with $1,000, even if they have no experience with real estate or renovations. There are six additional properties currently open to investment in Belwood Investments’ app, with additional offerings planned soon.

The non-contingent cash offer on 24844 Malibu Road was made by Andrew Mazella Ventures LLC, a developer based in Montana. Celebrity real estate consultant Dylan Eckardt and agents Amanda Lynn of Nest Seekers and Jason Oppenheim of Oppenheim Group negotiated the deal. Other agents involved included Mauricio Umansky, Jean-Baptiste Rugiero and Mehdi Maamri of The Agency.

The sale will close on May 1, 2025. Belwood Investments is in the process of calculating investor returns, which are projected to be around 20%, and will release details of the deal and final tally of construction expenses soon.
