The Boulder Group, a net leased investment
brokerage firm specializing in single tenant assets, has completed the sale of
a net leased Walgreens property located at 1207 North Randall Road, Aurora,
Illinois for $2,701,150. The property was the final asset in a four property
Midwest Walgreens portfolio being sold by a Chicago based family trust.
The
Walgreens portfolio included properties located in Gurnee, IL, Tinley Park, IL,
Cedar Rapids, IA and Aurora, IL. The total selling price for the four
properties was $14.1 million. The single tenanted assets had lease terms of
five to eight years remaining at the time of the sales.
The
13,905 square foot Aurora Walgreens was built in 1996 and is located in the
western suburbs of Chicago. The building is situated along Randall Road, one of
the most heavily trafficked roadways in the trade area. The building is leased
to Walgreens on a net lease basis with five years of lease term remaining and
is located on a hard corner of a signalized intersection. Walgreens is an
investment grade rated company with a Standard & Poor’s rating of BBB and
has over 8,200 stores nationwide.
Randy
Blankstein and Jimmy Goodman of The Boulder Group represented the seller; a
Chicago based family trust, in the transaction. The buyer was a private
investment group.
“The
market for net leased Walgreens with shorter term leases and strong sales
remains active as investors are attracted to the higher yield these assets
generate.” said Randy Blankstein, President of The Boulder Group. Jimmy Goodman, Partner of The Boulder Group,
added, “Core market single tenant assets with solid real estate fundamentals
continue to be in the greatest demand.”
