HFF closes $17 million sale of Los Angeles-area industrial facility



Ryan Martin
IRVINE, CA – HFF announced it has closed the $17 million sale of a 260,000-square-foot industrial building in the Inland Empire submarket of Moreno Valley, California, east of Los Angeles. 

HFF represented the seller, a joint venture between Marhub, LLC and Global Port Ramp Services, and the buyer, Westcore Properties, who purchased the facility free and clear of existing debt.

The property is located at 17101 Heacock Street in Moreno Valley on the March Air Reserve Base.

 Built in 2006, the building is master-leased to DHL Express, Inc., but the current sublease tenants include Amro Fabricating Corp. and Ross Dress for Less. 

Adjacent to an Amazon Fulfillment Center, the property provides immediate access to Interstate 215 and includes heavy electrical power, extensive trailer parking and future expansion capabilities.  

The Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach are both less than 75 miles west of the property.

The HFF investment sales team was led by senior managing director Anthony Brent and managing director Ryan Martin.  Director Jeremy Womack also assisted in the sale.

“With the ground lease, subtenants and the air cargo nature of the facility, the transaction had many moving parts, which required a skilled buyer to understand all of the related complexities,” Brent said. 

“This investment presented a unique value-add opportunity in the marketplace and will be a great addition to Westcore’s Southern California portfolio.”

“Offering ramp access for inbound and outbound air cargo as well as the longest and deepest runway in California, this property also benefits from being located within a foreign trade zone destination,” Martin added.
