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.
