Lamar is in the business of acquiring distressed retail centers around the country, either through simple purchase or foreclosure sales, with the aim of reviving their revenue potential and increasing property value.

“We made a great effort, coast-to-coast, to promote the property, and we had bidders from coast-to-coast,” Jeffrey Oram, an executive managing director of Colliers’ Investment Services Group tells GlobeSt.com.

The ITC Crossing North shopping center is anchored by a 132,023-square-foot Sam’s Club, and includes a 20,352-square-foot Staples, and a Subway restaurant. Several smaller retail spaces are are available for lease.

Tom Lagos and El Warner, both with Colliers in Los Angeles, assisted with national promotion of the property.
