JLL Capital Markets led sales efforts for 10500 NE Walker Rd., which is a fully leased, single-story asset in Hillsboro, Oregon
PORTLAND, April 25, 2022 – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has closed the sale of 10500 NE Walker Rd., a single-story call center building totaling 211,863 square feet in the Portland-area community of Hillsboro, Oregon.
JLL represented the seller, a public REIT, and procured the buyer, Hines Global Income Trust.
10500 NE Walker Rd. occupies an 18.92-acre site in the Sunset Corridor / Silicon Forest submarket of the Portland MSA. This area has become a prime suburban location for many large corporate tenants due to the proximity of desirable residential neighborhoods; easy access to the Portland central business district via the MAX Light Rail Red Line – Willow Creek / NW 185th Station, which is within walking distance of the property; and access to a deep talent pool of employees. In addition, the property has excellent access to a plentiful amenity base and Highway 26 for direct access to downtown Portland.
Renovated in 2009, 10500 NE Walker Rd. holds a LEED Silver certification and is fully leased to a long-term, financial services tenant. The property provides 938 parking spaces and features 16’7” ceiling heights along with three dock high doors and two grade-level doors.
JLL’s Capital Markets team representing the seller was led by Managing Directors Buzz Ellis and Adam Lasoff and Director Adam Taylor, along with Senior Managing Director Ira Virden, Managing Director Carrie Kahn, Director Frank Solorzano and Senior Managing Director Conan Lee.
“The Sunset Corridor has been the submarket of choice for investors given the deep, tech-oriented talent pool,” Ellis said. “Considering the scale of the infill suburban site, and the underlying zoning, it will be exciting to see how Hines stewards the property during their ownership.”
