The buyer, Ramona Investments, has paid $5 million for the property. Built in 1983, the building has a 26-ft clearance height and is fully sprinklered. It is located at 13851 Ramona. The facility is fully leased to long-term tenants EL & EL Wood Products Corp. and Gibbs Wire & Steel Co.

Both Ramona Investments and the seller, Investment Building Group, were represented by Jedd Zaun of Lee & Associates.

"It was an excellent acquisition for the buyer," comments Zaun. "The current investment market is fairly tight due to lack of supply."
