“This is the first time Stagecoach Plaza has been sold,”
said Mousavi, managing director with Faris Lee Investments.
“Faris Lee spent
several months prior to marketing the asset, advising ownership on the optimum
lease-up strategy in order to maximize value on the sale.
“Dollar Tree was delayed in opening its doors due to the
recession and with its recent opening, we were able to work with the seller and
leasing brokers to reduce the vacancy by adding new regional tenants. Once we
achieved our optimum occupancy level we began marketing the property.”
“Faris Lee immediately garnered multiple offers from local and foreign
buyers,” said Conover, senior managing director with Faris Lee Investments.
“With a strong tenant line-up, Faris Lee was able to highlight the project as a
unique multi-tenant offering in a supply-constrained market, especially for
retail properties with quality tenants.
"Furthermore, the property was offered
free and clear of financing, allowing an investor to benefit from the favorable
debt options available for the asset.”
Upon
the completion of the sale, Faris Lee managed the 1031 exchange upleg
acquisitions for the seller and built a team internally to manage this process
as well. This included financing the uplegs to cover the debt requirements of
the trade.
Stagecoach Plaza offers unobstructed street visibility and has 156,000
consumers with an average annual household income of $92,000 within a five-mile
radius. The property is located on the main east/west thoroughfare within the
area.
