“The
prAna headquarters gives us a long-term credit investment in a high-demand
Southern California location,” said EverWest Managing Director of Acquisitions Erik
Good. “In
spite of an uncertain economy, this region continues to experience notable deal
volume and stability. San Diego County, in particular, achieved more than 2.3
million square feet of net absorption in 2020 and sustained steady rent growth,
driven by life sciences and distribution companies.”
Built
in 2009, the parAna headquarters includes a 24’ clear height warehouse and
modern creative offices, 130’ truck court, three dock high and four drive-in
doors, and proximity to I-5 and I-15.
EverWest
acquired LINQ in 2017 in a joint venture purchase with Chilean-based Frontal
Trust, an alternative asset management firm with a focus on
real estate, private equity in financial services, private debt and
infrastructure investments.

The
property has a single-story, bungalow-style design with private tenant
entrances, glass roll-up doors, a modern lobby, indoor/outdoor workspaces,
tenant common area with a furnished deck, and a wrap-around boardwalk.Following
acquisition, EverWest built out and leased approximately 10,000 square
feet of available space at LINQ as two move-in-ready office suites. The
building is now 100 percent occupied, including two national credit tenant
anchors.
“LINQ
achieved our value-add objectives and secured a sale that exceeds pro forma
returns, even during the height of COVID,” said EverWest Managing Director of
Asset Management Amr Ceran.
