Hanley Investment Group Represents Seller in Sale of $7,380,000 Starbucks-Anchored Retail Center

PRLog (Press Release) - Feb. 28, 2008 - IRVINE, CALIF. – Hanley Investment Group Real Estate Advisors, one of the most dominant retail investment groups in Southern California and a market leader in the sale of retail properties, announced today Kevin T. Fryman and Bryan Land of Hanley Investment Group represented the seller in the sale of a Starbucks-anchored shopping center in Ontario, California. The purchase price was $7,380,000, representing a 6.15 percent cap rate.

The 15,505-square-foot multi-tenant strip center, known as Archibald’s Plaza, is located at 2910 & 2920 Archibald Avenue in Ontario. Located just south of the 60 freeway at the signalized intersection of Archibald Avenue and Riverside Drive, the sale consisted of two buildings anchored by Starbucks (Drive-Thru), Juice it Up, Sprint and UPS Store. Archibald’s Plaza is situated on 1.97 acres within a shopping center anchored by Walgreens, Washington Mutual and Archibald's Restaurant, which were not part of the sale. The property was built in 2005, and was 100 percent occupied at the time of sale.

“The property was a very secure and stable investment opportunity that matched the buyer’s investment criteria,” said Kevin Fryman, vice president at Hanley Investment Group. “The buyer assumed an existing loan that required a $3,347,047 (45 percent) down payment, which was a very attractive selling point to the deal given the uncertainty of the capital markets during the marketing of the property. We obtained list price for the seller on the sale of the property, which is well positioned for future success situated adjacent to the New Model Colony residential development, scheduled to add 30,000 new homes at build out.”

The buyer, Mabel Jung from Rolling Hills Estates, Calif., was represented by Randy Jung of Number One Investment in Los Angeles, Calif.  The seller was River Arch Center LLC of Long Beach, Calif.
