Stos Acquires 100 Percent Leased Asset in Carlsbad:

property in Carlsbad, California for $9.7 million from a private seller. The

existing lease in place.

“The property
provides a unique combination of secure in-place cash flow with flexible
strategies to create future value driven by strong property-level attributes
that will make this a highly functional asset for current or other industrial
uses in the future.”
Boyle notes that the property has the right low-finish mix
of office and warehouse space, as well as grade and dock high loading positions
– all of which will contribute to its future marketability.

“This is a vacant property with significant deferred
maintenance, situated in a market our team knows very well,” says Jason Richards,
Partner at Stos Partners, who confirmed that Stos owns 14 properties in
Miramar.
“While many other owner-operators were stalled by the
property’s condition, our team immediately recognized the opportunity to create
value based on the location in the heart of the Miramar submarket as well as
the lack of competitive free-standing industrial buildings in the region,” says
Richards.

"Upon completion, we will implement a proactive lease-up or owner/user sale strategy.”
Planned improvements include a new roof, façade, parking lot
upgrades, updated landscape plan and interior renovations.
