W. Stephen Hagenbuckle
ATLANTA, GA (Aug. 12, 2016) – Real estate fund manager TerraCap Management, LLC, has acquired Sugarloaf VI and VII, two Class A office buildings totaling 161,183 square feet in Duluth, Georgia, for $25.37 million.

“This acquisition highlights again our commitment to the Southeast with our holdings of high quality assets in the Atlanta area alone now exceeding 1.2 million square feet,” said W. Stephen Hagenbuckle, founder and managing partner of TerraCap.

The buildings mark TerraCap’s fourth acquisition in Georgia this year. Most recently, TerraCap purchased Huntcrest, a four-building, 394,247-square-foot office park in Lawrenceville, Georgia. 

The company also owns several portfolios of office properties and commercial assets totaling nearly 2 million square feet in the state of Florida.

“The greater Atlanta area has qualities that attract top-notch companies and employees,” said Steve Good, a partner at TerraCap. “Sugarloaf VI and VII presented another fantastic opportunity to add to our rapidly growing investment portfolio.”

These buildings are ‘best in class’ and are an excellent long-term investment.”

Sugarloaf VI and VII are located within the Business Park at Sugarloaf , a master-planned office park featuring nearly 500,000 square feet of Class A office space in Gwinnett County.

The office park offers access from Sugarloaf Parkway and immediate proximity to Interstate 85, Gwinnett Civic Center, multiple hotels, restaurants, Sugarloaf Mills and Sugarloaf Country Club.

Continental Funding Group Arranges Financing for Three Class A Industrial Assets in Greater Los Angeles, CA Market


Eugene Rutenberg
LOS ANGELES, CA (Aug. 12, 2016) – Commercial real estate investment banking firm Continental Funding Group has successfully secured $8.23 million in financing for three Class-A industrial assets totaling 105,000 square feet in the greater Los Angeles area on behalf of two separate sponsors.

The financing for both of these transactions was arranged by Continental Funding Group Director Eugene Rutenberg.

“Industrial is one the hottest asset classes in the greater Los Angeles area,” explains Rutenberg, Director of Continental Funding Group.

“As demand for premium industrial space continues to surge throughout the Los Angeles region, vacancy rates have reached a record low of approximately 2.3 percent. The limited supply of industrial product, coupled with enormous demand from distribution and manufacturing tenants, is driving rental rates, resulting in increased lending activity for this property type.”

According to a 2016 Mid-Year CoStar report, the average rental rate for industrial space in the greater Los Angeles region was $9.45 per square-foot by the end of the second quarter, indicating a 3.1 percent increase from the first quarter of this year.
 
Valencia, CA Industrial Property
Rutenberg notes, “Based on these strong economic indicators, our strategy was to secure exceedingly aggressive terms on behalf of our sponsors to capitalize on the growth of this robust and dynamic industrial market.”

The HFF investment sales team representing the seller was led by senior managing director Ryan Clutter, director Scot Humphrey and managing director Ralph Smalley.

HFF’s debt placement team, led by director Jim Curtin, senior managing directors Travis Anderson and Andy Scott and associate director Cory Fowler, advised CapRidge in the financing of these assets.

“Nottingham Hall and Palisades I are two exceptional assets in key locations in the Raleigh-Durham market,” said Clutter.  “These assets received significant interest from the marketplace as investors were attracted to the near- and long-term potential of these buildings.”

“We continue to see strong interest in our Raleigh-Durham offerings while new and emerging capital continues to target this thriving market,” added Clutter.
