Get your 6.5% fixed rate loan now

When Marie Osmond's doll company, Charisma Brands, was seeking new headquarters in Irvine Spectrum, Charisma's President-who is also a C.P.A.-reviewed several thorough surveys of the inventory of available buildings for sale or lease. It became clear that lease rates had more than doubled in the 10 years since Charisma's last relocation. While sale prices had a similar rise, the availability of 85-90% loan-to-value SBA loans at fixed rates near 6.5% gave the clear advantage to purchase over a lease.

Many companies considering relocation have a simplified choice these days, because vacancy is so low in Orange County. There may be only a couple buildings for sale or lease in any given market and size range. INDUSTRIAL BROKERS is here to assist you in making the right decision for your situation. We have a network of experienced commerical loan brokers, tenant improvement contractors and technology providers to assemble all the data needed to optimize your company's relocation and return on investment. For a consultation in the New Year call Greg Ozimec at 949-646-2727.

The Advantages of "Build to Suit"

Your company is growing, and a move to accomodate your success is in the works. If you are here in Orange County, CA, there are few opportunities for a ground up "build to suit" to meet your specifications. Industrial Brokers represents one of the last remaining industrial build-to-suit opportunities in Orange County. Rather than trying to make your company's facility requirement fit the available building inventory, you can customize the building in the pre-construction planning stages.

Our client, Foothill Land, LLC, owns a uniquely situated 7.5 acre lot at 20 Icon, Foothill Ranch. It is currently improved with a modern 103,000 SF highly improved industrial building. The adjacent planned 53,264 SF building will overlook the Foothill Transportation corridor. The eventual tenant can customize the planned 9,600 SF office area-with a generous two-story window line wrapping the southwest corner-or expand the office to 17,000 SF. We also have the capability to engineer the foundation for specialized plumbing or heavy machinery, air-condition the warehouse-manufacturing area, or customize the electrical power.

How's Business? How About 6 Offers on 1 Building!

The Industrial real estate market in Orange County continues to defy Newton's Law of Gravity. Record low vacancy, lack of land for new development and strong employment have led to record high lease rates. When John Taylor, a long time client, and the original Owner of a 40 year old Santa Ana 7,000 SF building, called to say his Tenant had vacated unexpectedly, I was able to let him know that the current increased market rents would balance his lost rent. The offers started rolling in before he completed a needed renovation. He was understandably selective, and we had to scrutinize the financial statements and business prospects of several potential tenants early on during a 90 day marketing period. Mr. Taylor's patience finally paid off with three more offers the week before Thanksgiving. This week we finalized a Lease to Mission Landscape Services, in business since the 1970's, with an impressive client list that includes The Irvine Company.

This Landlord's experience not only illustrates the strength of the Industrial lease market, it also demonstrates INDUSTRIAL BROKERS commitment to providing the same dedicated service to a 7,000 SF building owner's vacancy, as we do for our clients with 100,000 SF buildings. Call me today at 949-646-2727 to touch base or get information to help you make the right decision in the O.C. Industrial property market.
