The Anatomy of a $40 Million Dollar Commercial Real Estate Transaction

The transaction world of Commercial Real Estate (CRE) can often be a long complicated dance between the seller and the buyer. Behind the scenes of the negotiation is a world filled with strategic partners and vendors that help the process move forward while assisting with the ultimate goal of completing the transaction. With this particular deal, Hinkins Real Estate Analytics dba HinkinsREA (now Trimark Commercial Real Estate) played an important role as a trusted advisor in the commercial brokerage capacity.

The sale portion of the transaction comprised three Commercial Sales totaling $15.75 Million (2 retail centers and 1 single family). HinkinsREA brokered the sale of the two Bay Area commercial centers for a sale price of $14.1mm. Mark Hinkins, President and CEO commented ‘facilitating this sale helped our client (Seller) execute a 1031 exchange as part of a $40mm transaction. Providing a detailed analysis of income and pricing using rent roll and cash-flow analysis allowed us to work with the Seller and their Trustees in preparing the pricing and marketing strategy. As a result, we were able to identifying a suitable and qualified buyer for the assets. The Buyer had the financial ability to purchase ‘all-cash’ without a loan contingency and to allow the Seller an extended escrow period to identify their replacement portfolio. 

These key transactional components required a range of commercial real estate agency services and skills provided in-house by HinkinsREA. The result was the Seller and Buyer completed the transaction on time with a win-win outcome.
