VOIT COMPLETES SALE OF 24 OFFICE/INDUSTRIAL/FLEX CONDOS TOTALING 65,000 SQUARE FEET IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY
Voit’s San Diego office completes the sale of all remaining units in the Venture Commerce Center in Oceanside, Calif. for a total consideration of $6.25 million.
San Diego, CA – May 3, 2012 – (RealEstateRama) — Voit Real Estate Services’ San Diego office has completed the sale of 24 office/industrial/flex condos encompassing 65,000 square feet in the Venture Commerce Center in Oceanside, Calif. on behalf of the seller for a total consideration of $6.25 million.
Voit was retained by LAMCO LLC, a subsidiary of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., to develop a strategic solution for the distressed asset – a fractured condo project consisting of seven buildings divided into 43 individual units, according to Randy LaChance, Senior Vice President in Voit’s San Diego office.
“When Voit took over the management of the property, less than half of the individual units had already been sold,” said LaChance. “Our in-house asset management, property management, and brokerage divisions worked closely to develop a strategy that was best for our client and for the asset. Together, we determined that the best strategy for the remaining units was an orderly market disposition to users.”
Voit’s Randy LaChance and Todd Holley, along with Rusty Williams of Lee & Associates, led the disposition process and completed the sale of the remaining 24 units within 16 months. LaChance, Holley and Williams represented LAMCO LLC as the seller in these transactions.
According to Todd Holley, the property was challenged due to its recent foreclosure, and the Voit team launched a thorough marketing campaign in order to change the perception of the center and identify buyers for the remaining condos.
“Ultimately, we completed all 24 sales, predominantly to owner-users,” commented Holley. “This is an excellent example of what Voit can do when clients utilize all of our integrated services.”
The Venture Commerce Center is located at 3600-3682 Ocean Ranch Boulevard in Oceanside, Calif.
