The Boulder Group Arranges Sale of Net Lease Qdoba Property


The Boulder Group, a net leased investment brokerage firm, has completed the sale of a single tenant net lease Qdoba property located at 3225 Alpine Avenue NW in Grand Rapids, MI for $1,045,000.

The Qdoba property is strategically positioned along Alpine Avenue which is the trade area’s primary north-south thoroughfare that experiences traffic counts of 50,000 vehicles per day. The Qdoba is located directly across the street from Green Ridge Square which is a 406,597 square foot power center that is anchored by Target, Best Buy, TJ Maxx, Bed Bath & Beyond and Michael’s. Additional retailers located in the immediate trade area include Walmart, Sam’s Club, Home Depot, Menards, Meijer, Hobby Lobby, Kohl’s and Burlington Coat Factory.

Randy Blankstein and Jimmy Goodman of The Boulder Group represented the seller in the transaction; a Midwest based real estate investment company. The purchaser was a high net worth individual based on the West Coast.

There are over five years remaining on the Qdoba lease which expires in September 2021. Qdoba recently exercised its first renewal option. The lease features no landlord responsibilities and a 15% rental escalation in the next renewal option period. Qdoba is a fast-casual Tex-Mex chain with over 600 locations and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Jack in the Box.           

“Net lease properties with strong residual real estate value are highly sought after amongst the investment community.” said Randy Blankstein, President of The Boulder Group.  Jimmy Goodman, Partner of The Boulder Group, added, “As there is a limited amount of long term core assets on the market, some net lease investors are seeking assets with shorter term leases in strong retail corridors for higher yields.”
