Crystal Casino Hotel, Compton City, CA |
COMPTON, Calif.,
Feb. 4, 2013 – Marcus & Millichap Real Estate Investment Services, the
nation’s largest real estate investment services firm, has arranged the sale of
the Crystal Casino Hotel, a 250-room full-service hotel and casino in
Compton, Calif. The sales price of $16.5 million represents $66,000 per room.
Gordon
Allred, vice president investments and senior director of the firm’s
National Hospitality Group in Ontario,
Calif., represented the seller, a regional casino operator. The buyer is an
investment group based in China.
“In an
unusual and mutually beneficial arrangement, the seller will lease back the
entire ground floor of the hotel and retain operation of the casino, restaurant
and bar,” says Allred. “The buyer, meanwhile, should be able to realize
substantial upside potential through improved management and renovation of the
hotel lobby, the guestrooms and the meeting space.”
