Newmark Grubb Knight Frank (NGKF) has completed the $14 million sale of Journey Business Park in the Aliso Viejo submarket of South Orange County, California. The property consists of two multi-tenant R&D buildings totaling 60,648 square feet that are fully occupied by 16 tenants.
Senior Managing Directors Gary Allen and Douglas Mathews represented the seller, LL & DM Investments, LLC. The buyer, Wilson Journey, LLC represented itself.
Built in 1999 and located at 6 Journey, Journey Business Park is situated on 3.42 acres. The first building totals 50,728 square feet and the second building totals 9,920 square feet. The property includes 203 parking spaces, ground-level truck doors, and warehouse space with 12’ to 22’ clear heights ideal for a variety of light industrial uses. It is located within the master-planned community of Aliso Viejo and is near the 73 Tollway as well as a variety of retail, dining, and entertainment amenities.
“The Aliso Viejo market has a strong demand and limited supply for smaller, multi-tenant properties such as Journey Business Park,” said Mathews. “This fully leased investment provided the buyer with a stable cash flow and the opportunity to increase rents over time.”
