Stan Johnson Co. Completes Sale of 83,000-SF Net Lease Office Building in Springville, UT for $14M

SPRINGVILLE, UT, Aug. 5, 2009 – Stan Johnson Company, one of the nation’s premier net lease brokerage firms, has completed the sale of an 82,945-square-foot office building, 100 percent leased to Neways International Inc, to Duluth, GA-based Springville LLC for $14 million.

Brad Pepin (middle left photo) of Team Hughes with Stan Johnson Company represented the seller, Dallas-based Cardinal Capital Partners. Tom Mullen of United Country –Tom Mullen & Associates represented the buyer.

"This transaction was a win/win for both buyer and seller,” said Pepin. “The buyer was able to assume better-than-market non-recourse financing that generated double-digit returns, while the seller was able to monetize the asset as part of their portfolio management strategy."

Pepin went on to say, "In today's market environment, it's rare to see large net lease office transactions being done. This $14 million class A office sale was priced correctly with the assumable debt in place, and was closed with a buyer that has a strong track record in commercial real estate.

We're firm believers that large office, industrial and retail transactions can still get done today if you properly manage expectations on both sides.”
