星空体育app下载 and ViaWest Group announce the sale of Raintree Corporate Center I, a 149,424-square-foot, Class A office project located in North Scottsdale at 15333 North Pima Road. The asset is comprised of a three-story, 149,424-square-foot office building and a four-level parking structure.
ViaWest purchased both Raintree Corporate Center I & II in 2015 from CW Capital. As part of the business plan, ViaWest spun off the single-tenant building (Raintree Corporate Center II) in 2016 for $32.1 million while they focused on enhancing the value of the underperforming multi-tenant Raintree Corporate Center I. The properties had been in receivership for 3+ years and were struggling economically. ViaWest embarked on a capital campaign to refresh the image of the building, which included building more than a dozen spec suites over four years, ultimately bringing the building to over 90 percent leased.
NKF’s Executive Managing Director cooperated with Co-head of U.S. , Executive Managing Directors , , and and Senior Managing Director to represent the seller, ViaWest Group. The buyer, Held Properties, Inc., a California-based real estate investment and operating company, was self-represented. This is the firm鈥檚 fourth Arizona-based acquisition and third deal completed with ViaWest Group.
鈥淲e are excited to pass along a great building, in a great location, to a great owner. After several years of repositioning and lease up, it鈥檚 always bittersweet to part with an asset you鈥檝e grown to love. The silver lining is that we get to continue to stay involved through providing property management on the new owner鈥檚 behalf,鈥� said Danny Swancey, Partner at ViaWest.
Osbrink added, 鈥淥wnership has done a remarkable job on Raintree Corporate Center I, through tenant retention, rent appreciation, and a recently completed capital improvement program. This, along with the highly accessible and visible location of Raintree Corporate Center in a preferred and amenity-rich submarket, is what attracted investors to the opportunity. Despite the ongoing pandemic, tenants at Raintree continued to pay rent in full and on time and some have since renewed and expanded.鈥�
The building has direct access to the Loop 101 Freeway, is located within 陆 mile of Scottsdale Airport, TPC of Scottsdale Golf Course, home of the world-renowned Phoenix Open and several hotels, restaurants and retail amenities.
