Real estate news: McPeek’s Chrysler Dodge Jeep buys Orange property for $8.6 million

McPeek’s Chrysler Dodge Jeep of Anaheim recently acquired an outdoor site with five storage buildings in Orange for $8.6 million, according to DAUM Commercial Real Estate Services.

DAUM reps said McPeek will be using the property at 760 Batavia St. for service facilities and fleet storage. The auto dealership’s sales showroom is less than 2 miles north of the site.

“The industrial outdoor market in Orange County is driven by extremely short supply, particularly for well-located sites within five miles of most of the county’s population,” said Mike Barreiro at DAUM.

DAUM did not identify the seller. McPeek was represented by Bob Wright Industrial Property.

Flying J ground lease sets new records

The Irvine-based investment firm Greens Group is celebrating the recent sale of a single-tenant property in Jurupa Valley that scored several records.

The Pilot Flying J Travel Center in Jurupa Valley recently sold for $14 million, setting records for its sales price and price per square feet for a Pilot ground lease, according to RealSource Group in Newport Beach.

The buyer was another Irvine investor, which the brokerage declined to identify.

“This sale represents a notable milestone, setting nationwide benchmarks for a Pilot ground lease,” Austin Blodgett at RealSource. “The acquisition also marked the buyer’s first net-lease purchase. The buyer was particularly drawn to the property’s underlying real estate value and the unique security offered by the Pilot brand, now wholly owned by Berkshire Hathaway under the leadership of Warren Buffett, further bolstering the buyer’s confidence in the investment.”

Pilot Flying J’s absolute triple-net ground lease relieves the buyer of landlord responsibilities, Blodgett noted.

“Corporate-backed absolute ground leases are popular among investors, seeking simplicity in their holdings. Pilot Flying J has more than 14 years remaining on the initial lease term with four five-year options and 10% rental increases every five years,” he said.

The travel center includes including 12 fueling lanes, a drive-thru Wendy’s, Cinnabon, PJ Fresh Marketplace convenience store, a Western Union, 107 truck parking spots, 48 reserved parking spots, two ATMs, CAT-certified scales and nine on-site showers.
