$9.4M JLL Industrial Sale Brings West Valley Interest to East Valley Asset in Arizona

  

 

Steve Larsen

PHOENIX, AZ – The Phoenix office of JLL has just closed the $9.4 million sale of 464 E. Chilton Dr., a manufacturing/distribution facility in Chandler, Arizona that underscores the growing interest in Southeast Valley industrial investment assets.

JLL Vice President Steve Larsen and JLL Managing Director Bill Honsaker brokered the deal for the buyer, Cohen Asset Management, and the seller, GP Investments, LLC.

“Buyers looking for quality Phoenix industrial assets have broadened their scope to include not only our traditional, big-box West Valley space but also the Southeast Valley, where activity trends more toward manufacturing and regional distribution,” said Larsen. 

“That is the case with this project, which is being purchased by an investor who, up until now, has operated primarily in the West Valley.”

Built in 2000, 464 E. Chilton Dr. totals 104,352 square feet, including almost 14,000 square feet of office space. It is 100 percent occupied by Phoenix Packaging, LLC.

Building amenities include 2-3,600 amps 277/480 volt SES, 28’ clear height, ESFR sprinkler system and five truckwell and four grade level doors. The project has light industrial/PAD zoning. It is located approximately 2 miles south of the US 60 Freeway, just east of Arizona Avenue.

According to JLL, the Southeast Valley submarkets of Mesa, Gilbert, Ahwatukee, Chandler and Tempe account for 27 percent of Phoenix’s industrial inventory but as of Q2 were responsible for more than 60 percent of year-to-date absorption. Freeway access and large areas of developable land keep these submarkets in high demand among tenants and developers, and have helped to maintain vacancy rates that fall below the market average of 10.7 percent.

Passco Companies Acquires 344-Unit Class A Multifamily Community in Duluth, GA

The Estates at Crossroads, 2620 North Berkeley Lake Road Northwest, Duluth, GA

DULUTH, GA – Passco Companies, LLC has acquired The Estates at Crossroads, a 344-unit, Class A multifamily community located in the highly sought after Duluth submarket of Gwinnett County, Georgia, according to Colin Gillis, Director of Acquisitions, Southeast for Passco Companies.

Colin Gillis

“The Estates at Crossroads is located in Metro Atlanta’s booming Gwinnett County, one of the nation’s top-ten fastest growing counties with an impressive 46 percent population growth since 2000,” explained Gillis.

 “The growth in the sheer number of people and businesses moving into the area has resulted in strong renter demand for Class A housing, making this an extremely smart acquisition for Passco Companies. 

"In fact, Gwinnett County’s population growth from 2012-2014 represented over 34 percent of the total population growth seen in the thirteen county area encompassing the Atlanta MSA.”

Gillis notes that the area's soaring population is based on job growth in the region.  Metro Atlanta’s employment gains are expected to reach near record levels, with more than 140,000 new jobs expected in 2015. 

Gillis notes that the property is located within 15 miles of over 55 million square feet of Class A office space, including Technology Park Atlanta, Windward Parkway Corridor, Johns Creek Technology Park, and Perimeter Center. Gwinnett County is also home to the headquarters of three Fortune 500 companies, including the AGCO Corporation and Asbury Automotive.

Chris Black of KeyBank Real Estate Capital’s Commercial Mortgage Group arranged acquisition financing for Passco Companies through Fannie Mae.
