Investment Highlights
- Owner-User Optionality: The penthouse lease expires April 30, 2027, providing a clear occupancy window in 1.5 years
- Office Cap Limits Future Supply: Palo Alto has a 50,000 SF annual cap on new office supply in Downtown locations, severely limiting future supply
- Secured Underground Garage with Adjacent City Garage: The property includes 8 total parking spaces.
- Recent Sharp Decline in Vacancy: Since Q1 2024, Downtown Palo Alto vacancy has dropped 700 bps from 20.1% to 13.1% Q3 2025.
- Electrified 39 Minute Train from SF to Palo Alto: The Palo Alto Caltrain station connects to San Francisco in as little as 39 minutes.
- Recent Capital Investment: All suites renovated to current market standards in 2024, providing turnkey product that minimizes future TI requirements.
Executive Summary
CBRE is pleased to market the opportunity to purchase 555 Hamilton Avenue, a fully leased ±12,897 SF office building in Downtown Palo Alto—the most walkable, transit-oriented, and amenity-rich location on the Peninsula. With only 1.85 years of weighted average lease term remaining, the property generates in-place cash flow while offering exceptional flexibility. Owner users can receive cash flow to offset carrying costs and confidently plan their future occupancy while the existing tenants fulfill their lease term. For investors, it represents a rare chance to secure core Silicon Valley real estate at an attractive basis in a submarket experiencing rapidly declining vacancy and accelerating demand, with current rents significantly below market rates.
