Irvine, CA - December 6, 2021 - Faris Lee Investments arranged the $1.35 million sale of a mostly vacant office building in Bakersfield, CA. The property presented a unique opportunity to acquire a value-add asset with below-market rents in a dense infill location with over 258,000 residents within a 5-mile radius.

Located at 501 40th Street, the property sits within close proximity to other major healthcare facilities like Kaiser Permanente and is adjacent to the Bakersfield Memorial Hospital complex.

The team marketed the property in the heart of the pandemic highlighting the Pro-forma income. The deal closed with a local owner/user buyer that saw the long-term value of the real estate, under-market rents, and the overall location of the property. Faris Lee Investments was the third broker hired to finally sell the project.
