Client had a commercial real estate property previously inhabited by a tenant who had the development custom built to suit his needs. It was hard to justify the replacement value without the tenant because of the precise build-out choices. The listing had a high price per square footage and the appraiser couldn’t find comparable values (comps) to promote the legitimacy of the listing’s cost. Client was seeking long-term NNN lease.

SIG emphasized the location of the lease in Northern California, just outside of Sacramento. The site is near multi-million dollar homes and several trade areas including the Quarry Ponds Shopping Plaza (adjacent), Roseville Auto Mall (3 miles), Roseville Galleria (5 miles). The location was perfect for a business with a customer base residing in Granite Bay, Rocklin, and Roseville. Granite Bay suburb is highly affluent with the average annual household income at $150,000.

Creative marketing strategies began by identifying the best commercial possibilities for the property and marketing to those businesses. Using SIG’s proprietary database made it possible to contact the right investors and brokers to generate interest in the property. SIG proprietary technology also made it possible to identify the best market for the property through in-depth market research and immediately list in those markets. Real-time information played a role in finding buyers and negotiating offers.

SIG brought multiple buyer offers sub 6% CAP to the client. SIG negotiated a brand new build-to-suit preschool facility for Little Sunshine Preschool on a long-term absolute NNN 15 year lease with two, 10-year renewal options for an $8,000,000 win. Corporate and personal guarantee from the owners and a 10% rent increase every 5 years was also attached to the contract.

Throughout the entire process, SIG re-evaluated the client’s property and developed new strategic recommendations. Property evaluations, portfolio analysis, and real-time market research through SIG’s proprietary technology all led to an innovative client-specific marketing plan.
