Retail property transactions on a dollar basis totaled $6.4 billion during the past 12 months have been robust and compare favorably to historical sales levels. Recent activity demonstrates investors are focused on varying strategies and risk appetites.
Opportunistic buyers see opportunities to acquire assets on sites ripe for redevelopment or reinvigoration of centers. One of the largest recent sales closed in April 2022, when Bridge Group Investments purchased from institutional investor UBS portions of the Shops at Montebello for $86.9 million. Bridge purchased with the intention to redevelop the mid-tier mall. Concrete plans have yet to be disclosed. The sale included all portions of the center except for the JCPenney and Macy's, which the department stores own.
In July 2022, Massachi Industries purchased 8025 Santa Monica Blvd. in West Hollywood, a 4,200-SF former bank branch on a half acre, from Bank of America for $13.6 million ($26.7 million/acre). Massachi purchased with the intent to redevelop the high-profile site into a 120- to 130-unit multifamily community.
On the other side of the risk spectrum, investors are focused on acquiring high-quality, well-leased properties. In June 2022, Felson Companies acquired 64-68 W Colorado Ave. from JV partners Aurora Capital Associates and Rockwood Capital for $52.25 million ($1,840/SF). Tenants in the 28,400-SF property include Crate & Barrel, Tiffany, and House of Hoops, with inplace income from the tenants equating to a 5.5% inplace cap rate.
The property last traded in December 2014 for $52.3 million ($1,840/ SF), essentially the same price Felson paid eight years later. The sale demonstrates that even top-tier retail assets have witnessed little to no appreciation in recent years, standing in stark contrast to the run-up in pricing seen in industrial and multifamily properties during this time.
The average modeled price per SF currently stands at $420, well above the national retail average of $240/SF. Average market cap rates, presently 5.2%, are far below the national average of 6.8%. Average market pricing flatlined through 2020 and 2021, although recent quarters have seen modest asset price growth. The outlook calls for continued modest gains for at least the near to midterm.
With an average modeled price per SF of $410 and a market cap rate of 5.0%, the Downtown Los Angeles Submarket offers retail asset pricing similar to metro averages. However, the proximity to public transportation and significant multifamily construction offer plenty of upside, especially for redevelopment sites. Sales volume during the past 12 months, $118 million, compares to the submarket's five-year average of $84.3 million.
In June 2022, a consortium of individuals purchased 614 S Mateo St., a 5,600-SF freestanding building in the Arts District, from Inception REIT for $6 million ($1,070/SF). Inception REIT is the first REIT formed by a leading cannabis firm, The Inception Companies. The property was 100% leased to Sweet Flower, a cannabis retailer, with eight years remaining on the lease term, plus two five-year extension options. Income from the lease at the property equated to a 9% cap rate at the time of sale.
In February 2022, Reliable Properties purchased Washington Plaza, along with an adjacent industrial property at 425 E 20th St., from a private seller for $44.75 million. The 71,000-SF neighborhood center at 408 E Washington Blvd. was fully leased to long-term tenants that include 99 Cents Only and Rite Aid. Inplace income at the properties equated to a 5.2% inplace cap rate.
