Stos Partners initially acquired the asset for $6.15 million in June of 2019 and was successful in bringing the property to 100% occupancy during escrow.
Stos then implemented a value-add program that resulted in a 35% value increase, ultimately selling the property for $8.335 million to a private investor.
“We immediately recognized the potential in this asset based on its prime location near the U.S./Mexico border and its cold storage product type,” says CJ Stos, Principal at Stos Partners.

Today, 46 percent of shoppers plan to continue purchasing goods online, and the value of the cold storage sector is on track to grow by $102.2 billion in the next five years, according to a recent Transwestern report.”
The Stos team was able to build on these strong fundamentals as well as the strength of the local San Diego industrial market to create property-level value, according to Jay Boyle, Executive Vice President at Stos Partners.

“The San Diego industrial market is outperforming many others in the nation, posting its highest net absorption since 2018 in Q3 of 2020, with tightening vacancy that closed the quarter at 5.1%,” says Boyle.
“As a seasoned investor in this community, our firm understands the nuances of the local market and maintains strong relationships with exceptional brokers and partners, allowing us to move quickly and nimbly in response to market drivers.
"In this case, we were able to outperform our proforma yet again, resulting in a successful full-cycle investment.”
During its ownership, Stos implemented a series of upgrades at the property including a new roof, new paint, mechanical enhancements, fresh landscaping, and other general building improvements.

“By expanding and extending the tenant and implementing strategic upgrades throughout the site, we were able to execute a sale that is truly a win-win, both for Stos and for the new owner.”
The property is located at 9925 Airway Road in Otay Mesa, California. CBRE’s Louay Alsadek, Hunter Rowe, Erik Parker and Matthew Pourcho represented Stos Partners as the seller in the transaction.
