Northmarq arranges 1031 exchange of Magnolia Health & Wellness Center
HOUSTON, TEXAS (February 10, 2023) — Riley Sharman, vice president in Northmarq’s Houston office, has completed the sale of an eight-tenant medical and retail strip center located at 827 Magnolia Boulevard in Magnolia, Texas. The 16,700-square-foot building is fully leased to a diverse mix of strong medical and service-oriented tenants. Sharman represented the seller, a local owner. A 1031 exchange buyer based in Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas acquired the asset.
“The dental partners that I represented were able to maximize value by exercising a ‘partial sale-leaseback’ for their practices, and we ultimately provided them the opportunity to capitalize on a sale to an all-cash, buyer exercising a 1031 tax deferred exchange,” said Sharman. “The interest and offer activity were high due to the long-term leases, strong lease guarantors, and extra acreage behind the strip center for future development, to name a few. This transaction demonstrates the increase in investor demand for multi-tenant medical strip centers we’re seeing throughout the Houston MSA and especially in high-growth areas like Magnolia."
The facility was built in 2012 and is situated on 7.66 acres in the city of Magnolia, an outdoor paradise of biking, hiking, golf, and more approximately 45 miles northwest of Houston. Just across the street from the property is a proposed Magnolia Ridge Development which will bring over 200 homes to one of the best public-school districts in Texas. With excellent visibility and multiple access points, Magnolia Health and Wellness Center boasts prime frontage on Magnolia Boulevard, seeing over 14,000 vehicles per day. Tenants include Hillwood Family Dental Group, Simple Traditions Family Health, Hanigan & Johnson Orthodontics, and Endodontics of Houston.
