MILPITAS, CA—Nearly 100% of scalable projects in Sunnyvale and Mountain View have been sold to users or encumbered by long-term leases, says Chris Moritz, senior managing director with Newmark Knight Frank. In response, he says potential tenants are now forced to look for options with space to grow in neighboring markets, placing Murphy Crossing in one of the most in-demand locations.
This type of tenant activity in Milpitas is also affecting investor demand. Namely, a loan of $84.5 million was recently secured for the acquisition of the five-building office/research and development campus located at 1001-1033 McCarthy Blvd. and 915-933 Murphy Ranch Rd. The $130 million acquisition involved a joint venture between Soma Capital Partners and Timbercreek Asset Management.
