parcel. The property is located along Olentangy River Road, a primary
north-south thoroughfare in the area which travels south through the Ohio State
University campus. Olentangy River Road runs parallel to Olentangy Freeway,
which experiences traffic volumes in excess of 71,000 vehicles per day creating
constant traffic near the site. Nearby national retailers along Olentangy River
Road include Kohl’s, Kroger, Big Lots and PNC Bank. The University of Ohio
State campus and numerous student housing apartments are located less than
one-half mile from the property, and the population is in excess of 311,000

The
building is leased on a triple net lease basis with approximately ten years of
lease term remaining. The lease has 10% rental escalations every five years
including the option periods. Sonic is a publicly traded company on the NASDAQ
(SONC) with over 3,500 locations in 43 states.
Randy
Blankstein and Jimmy Goodman of The Boulder Group represented the seller in the
transaction; a private partnership based in Milwaukee. The buyer was an Ohio
based high net worth individual.
“The
market for net leased properties priced under $1 million remains robust as
these assets are in high demand among private investors.” said Randy
Blankstein, President of The Boulder Group.
Jimmy Goodman, Partner of The Boulder Group, added, “As there is a
limited amount of assets leased to credit tenants available, some net lease
investors are seeking higher yielding assets like quick service restaurants
leased to secondary credits.”
