(Mark Your Calendars: RealShare MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDINGS, November 14-15 in Scottsdale, AZ).

SAN DIEGO-Locally based Trigild Inc. revealed that it will assume day-to-day management of the 159,000-square-foot Genesee Executive Plaza, an office complex comprised of two, three-story class A office/medical buildings located at 9333 and 9339 Genesee Ave. The buildings are located in the Golden Triangle/University Towne Center neighborhood of San Diego.

Originally constructed in 1983, the 3.6-acre property went through foreclosure in May of this year. The buildings recently sold for $46.8 million to Divco West Properties, an investment firm with offices in San Francisco and Boston.

The property is now 68% leased, with major tenants include Fed Ex, IGO Medical Group, Genesis Healthcare and the Regents of the University of California.

According to Trigild president and CEO Bill Hoffman, Trigild has been tapped by Divco to
“spearhead day-to-day activities, such as responding to tenant inquiries, overseeing vendors, reporting and maintenance.”

Hoffman points out that “The new owner has plans to upgrade and improve all common areas, including restrooms, lobbies and the courtyard, as well as expand office space.” He adds that “Trigild will direct and manage these improvements, focusing on taking the property—which is a top quality asset ideally located in a prime San Diego locale with easy access to all freeways—to the next level,” he says.

According to a recent San Diego office research report by Marcus & Millichap, renewed employment growth has yet to translate into meaningful occupancy gains for the San Diego office market this year, “as businesses are first backfilling under-utilized space before considering expansion, an occurrence likely to take hold in 2012.” However, the report predicts that vacancy in the San Diego office market will improve 60 basis points this year to 18%, a turnaround from the 60-basis-point rise recorded in 2010.
