CLIENT: Eastgate Land

Assignment

Boeing retained the Pacific Real Estate Partners’ Investment Team to develop a marketing strategy and process to sell a 600,000 SF Class A Office campus land site. The land represented one of the area’s largest suburban office campus sites.

Objective

Boeing has three primary objectives:

  1. Secure a valuation that reflected the probably future appreciation of the site
  2. Identify a buyer that would likely complete the development in the next 3 years
  3. Ensure the design is complimentary to Boeing’s 600,000 SF owned campus

Challenges

The process presented many challenges at the time of marketing: the local leasing market was soft and demand scarce. The site had potential soil and development risk. Boeing had a large, complex and lengthy decision making process but required timely execution of the process.

Results

PREP worked in conjunction with a widely recognized architectural firm to develop missing schematic plans and proformas. A competitive and nationally scoped marketing process yielded strong development intent. After a highly scripted bidding process a well capitalized regional developer was selected and the site closed quickly at a record value.
