“Faris Lee Investments proposed a break-up sales strategy to
the seller in order to maximize the cumulative sales price of the assets,” said
Vaccaro. “Despite the additional work of two individual deals as opposed to
just one, our experience with these complex transactions enabled us to meet the
challenging year-end closing requirement of the seller as well.”
Anchored by Albertson’s and Rite-Aid, which were not a part
of the sales, the property is located at the highly trafficked, signalized
intersection of N. Beach Boulevard and W. Whittier Boulevard which sees more
than 67,000 vehicles per day. The surrounding market area features over 414,000
consumers living within a 5-mile radius, with an average household income in
excess of $91,000.
Located at Orange County’s northernmost corner, La Habra is
7.3 square miles with a population of 61,789 and approximately 21,000
households. It is conveniently located within an hour’s drive of many beaches,
mountain, and desert recreation areas.
