                Nicholas Coo, Dennis Vaccaro and Ryan Tomkins with Faris Lee Investments represented the seller, Heslin Becker Properties. The buyer, who paid all cash, was CEO Huang and was represented by Jason Hong of Realty Executives.  The closing cap rate was 6.5 percent.

                “The success of this transaction was the direct result of strategic pricing which took into consideration our upward trending real estate market,” said Coo, senior managing director with Faris Lee.

 “After analyzing the property, we structured a rent guarantee with the seller that covered the vacant space’s rent for up to 12 months and secured a leasing team tasked with procuring tenant interest. This strategy allowed us to apply value to the vacant space and maximize value for the seller, via an all-cash buyer.”
