Forest Surgery Center, 2110 Forest Avenue, San Jose, CA |
BAY AREA, CA – Levin Johnston of Marcus and
Millichap, one of the top multifamily brokerage teams in the
U.S. specializing in wealth management through commercial real estate
investments, has successfully directed the $13.5 million acquisition of Forest
Surgery Center, a state-of-the-art medical office facility in
San Jose, California.
Adam Levin, Executive Managing Director and Robert
Johnston, Senior Managing Director of Levin Johnston represented the buyer,
a private investor, in the transaction.

The acquisition was part of a successful 1031 exchange
through which Levin Johnston identified an opportunity for the buyer to
transition from long-term ownership in a management-intensive multifamily
property in Redwood City into a stable, higher-yielding medical office
property, according to Johnston.
“This acquisition demonstrates our firm’s ability to go
beyond a transactional mindset and serve as wealth and investment advisors for
our clients,” Johnston explains.
“By remaining
attuned to the market and to our client’s needs, we were able to recognize the
opportunity for the client to diversify into another asset class to reduce
management responsibilities while significantly increasing cash flow.
"This trade also gives the buyer a stable asset in a
superior location that is posed to perform extremely well for years to come.”
Levin explains,
“San Jose is widely recognized as ‘The Capital of Silicon
Valley.’ As the market’s economic growth continues, the buyer will
benefit from continued tenant demand.
"All doctors in the building signed new five- to
10-year leases at the close of escrow. Additionally, the medical office is
situated in a premier location within a medical hub directly across from
O’Connor Hospital, which was recently acquired by Santa Clara County.”

in close proximity to Santa Clara Valley Medical Center as well as a wide

new acquisition.
