Among these, 9010 Avenue Paine in Valencia (Los Angeles–Greater San Fernando Valley submarket) fetched $31 million at $310 per square foot. This 100,157-square-foot, 100% leased single-tenant industrial building was sold to an owner-user. Similarly, 13700-13738 Slover Avenue in Fontana (Inland Empire–West submarket) was sold for $14.5 million, or $79 per square foot of land.

This 133,836-square-foot vacant single-tenant office campus was purchased by a merchant builder. This campus was previously slated for near-term development pipeline and, through this sale, it allows the company to avoid nearly $32 million in capital expenditures.

The company has about $170 million in property dispositions either under contract or with accepted offers.

These transactions are subject to customary due diligence and closing conditions; as such, there is no guarantee the company will close on these transactions.
