IRVINE, Calif., April 14, 2017 – Faris Lee Investments, a leading retail advisory and investment sales firm, has completed the $1.42 million sale of a 2,550-square-foot, multi-tenant property in La Jolla, Calif.
Tom Chichester, managing director with Faris Lee Investments, represented the buyer, a private investor  from Santa Monica. Clark Realty Advisors represented the seller, a private investor from San Diego.
Built in 1955 and renovated in 2011, the property is located at 7520 to 7524 La Jolla Boulevard near Pearl Street. The asset is 33 percent occupied by one tenant: Twin Dragons karate studio.
“For over a year I have been working with my client to identify an ideal retail property with strong value-add potential,” said Chichester. “The buyer liked this asset because of its irreplaceable coastal location in La Jolla just one block from the ocean. He plans on making cosmetic enhancements to the property, giving it more of a modern coastal look, and then filling the vacancy with tenants that will be a good fit with the surrounding community.”
