Acquisitions Enabled Rexford to Add an Attractive Value-Add Investment to its Portfolio

Howard Schwimmer and Michael Frankel, Co-Chief Executive Officers of Rexford, stated that the Company's extensive local research and relationship-driven originations process enabled the acquisition of these three assets through off-market transactions.

They added that with these three acquisitions, Rexford has added an attractive value-add investment to its portfolio as well as two fully-leased properties which provide immediate cash flow and opportunities for longer-term NOI growth.

Details of the Acquired Properties

  • Rexford acquired 851 Lawrence Drive, located in Thousand Oaks in the Ventura submarket, for $6.6 million, or $132 per square foot. The property contains a vacant 49,976 square foot building on 4.87 acres of land. The Company intends to restructure the existing structure into two units and construct a new 32,000 square foot building on excess land.

  • The second property located at North Main Street, in the Orange County-North submarket, was acquired for $7.2 million, or $180 per square foot. The property contains 39,661 square feet on 1.80 acres of land and is currently 100% leased to a single tenant, though it presents future value-add potential as the building is divisible into three units. The highly functional property features abundant dock-high loading and 24-foot clear height.

  • The Company acquired 4039 Calle Platino, located in Oceanside in the San Diego-North County submarket, for $20.0 million, or $140 per square foot. The property contains 143,274 square feet on 9.54 acres of land and is currently 100% leased to four tenants at in-place rents that are meaningfully below market. The building also presents future value-add potential as the spaces may be further divided in the future. The highly functional property features 24-foot clear height and substantive dock high loading.

Disposed Property Proceeds Used to Fund Portion of the Calle Platino Acquisition

Rexford sold 200-220 South Grand Avenue, located in Santa Ana in the Orange County-Airport submarket, for approximately $4.5 million, or $165 per square foot (SF), to a private owner. The multi-tenant industrial building is 100% occupied and contains 27,200 square feet on 1.63 acres of land. Proceeds from the disposition were recycled in a tax deferred 1031 exchange to fund a portion of the Calle Platino acquisition.

Rexford's Recent Acquisition Deal

On March 19, 2018, the Company acquired a single-tenant industrial property for $17.2 million. The acquisition was funded through a combination of cash on hand and draws on Rexford's line of credit. The Company acquired 16010, Shoemaker Avenue, located in Cerritos, in the Los Angeles-Mid Counties submarket for $17.2 million, or $149 per SF. The property contains 115,600 SF on 4.41 acres of land. The highly functional property features 24-foot clearance and 12 dock-high positions with a secured concrete yard and immediate access to major transportation arterials.
