Newmark has announced it has completed the leasehold interest sale of Brentwood Gateway a 10-story, 104,716-square-foot Class A office property in Los Angeles’ Brentwood submarket.
Newmark’s Co-Head of U.S. Capital Markets Kevin Shannon, Executive Managing Director Ken White, Executive Managing Director Rob Hannan, and Senior Managing Directors Laura Stumm and Michael Moll represented the seller, a family trust. The undisclosed buyer was self-represented.
Built in 1977 and located on .88 acres at 11611 San Vicente Blvd., the property features ample parking in its four-level parking structure and is 99 percent occupied by a diverse mix of tenants. For the past 20 years, it has been the headquarters of Vintage Capital Group, a real estate and private equity firm founded by real estate legend Fred Sands, and prior to that the headquarters of Fred Sands Realtors. It boasts the highest-image and best-located multi-tenant office property in the Brentwood submarket and offers ocean, city and mountain views from every floor. Brentwood Gateway is also near the 405 freeway, housing, and a number of employee-friendly amenities.
“This trophy Brentwood location offered spectacular views and attracted significant investor interest,” said Shannon. “The new ownership plans to enhance value through a targeted repositioning and reimagining of the building.”
“Brentwood along with the entire Westside submarket is extremely supply constrained and due to high barriers to entry for redevelopment projects, Class A office assets are very competitive for users seeking a high-profile address,” said White. “Brentwood Gateway, with strong remaining term on its ground lease, in concert with pent-up demand for this type of rare Brentwood space, was attractive to the buyer who saw the potential for rent and asset appreciation for the repositioned asset.”
