San Francisco Office for Sale - Mission/Potrero

NAI Northern California is pleased to present the Redstone Building (once known as the San Francisco Labor Temple) at 2924-2948 16th Street, an iconic steel-framed, three-story, low-rise office boasting a total building area of 55,560 square feet. Presenting significant rent upside, with current in-place rents averaging $22 per square foot compared to market rates of $39 per square foot, this offering has strong income growth potential through renewals and tenant turnover. Additional value can be unlocked through the unfinished 8,690-square-foot basement, which a future owner may improve for further income generation. At an offering price of just $193 per square foot, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a fully leased Mission District asset at a compelling value relative to comparable improved properties. The Redstone Building is rich in history and filled with character and charm, showcased by its brick masonry and concrete exterior facade. Highly visible, this building features street frontage along both 16th Street and Capp Street. Current tenants include small offices, community organizations, artists and art spaces, event and performance spaces, and a church. Restoration efforts have revitalized The Redstone Building into a vibrant, modern workspace, positioning new ownership to benefit from a stabilized asset with continued upside potential. The property has undergone extensive upgrades and improvements across multiple areas. Interior enhancements include the clearing of five former theater units, one of which had seating and theatre aesthetics preserved, while vacant spaces received new flooring, lighting, plumbing fixtures, and paint. Outdated wall heaters were replaced with modern, energy-efficient models. Building systems and common areas have also been updated with a modernized elevator, new plumbing fixtures, shut-off valves, motion-sensor LED lighting, and fresh paint. Rest assured, the building's historic murals have been meticulously preserved. Security and access have been elevated with the installation of cameras on every floor, app-based and code-entry systems for units and common areas, and the replacement of the rear gate and fencing. Structural upgrades include comprehensive basement waterproofing and drainage improvements, along with the installation of new sump pumps. The Redstone Building, located in the Mission District, a buzzing and desirable neighborhood in San Francisco, is home to a population of 47,205 and offers an intersection of vibrant culture and socioeconomic diversity. Serving as a Latino cultural hub, the Mission is home to many restaurants, boutiques, and a rich art scene that includes the largest collection of murals in the city. Geographically, the Mission is part of the Eastern Neighborhoods along with SoMa, Showplace Square/Potrero Hill, and Central Waterfront.

Modesto Office for Sale

Coldwell Banker Commercial is pleased to offer qualified investors the opportunity to acquire the fee-simple interest in a newly constructed, single-tenant medical office facility located in Modesto (the “Property”). The Property consists of 0.61 acres improved with a one-story, 4,214-square-foot medical office building that was built-to-suit in 2023 to the Tenant’s exact specifications. Investors may also acquire an adjacent, vacant 0.57-acre parcel featuring designed shared parking access and expansion flexibility. The Property is strategically positioned near the signalized intersection of Dale Road (approximately 14,000 vehicles per day) and Kiernan Avenue (approximately 27,000 vehicles per day) and is immediately adjacent to the region’s dominant hospital campus, Kaiser Permanente’s Modesto Medical Center. The surrounding five-mile trade area includes approximately 129,000 residents with an average household income exceeding $97,000 annually. The Tenant recently completed a comprehensive build-to-suit incorporating its brand-new prototype, representing the top tier of the kidney care industry with respect to patient experience, clinical functionality, and energy-efficient design standards. A neighboring dialysis facility—developed as a build-to-suit approximately six years ago and owned by a third party—previously housed both inpatient and home-health operations. Due to physical constraints within that building, the Tenant was unable to expand its inpatient hemodialysis services. To accommodate growth, the Seller acquired the adjacent parcel and relocated the home-health component into the newly constructed facility, allowing inpatient operations to expand within the original building. The two complementary facilities now house distinct functions, with supervising medical professionals able to walk between locations. The Property is secured by an initial fifteen-year (15-year) lease term featuring three (3) five-year renewal options. The lease is the Tenant’s standard form used across the majority of its national portfolio and is structured as a highly passive, landlord-favorable net lease with minimal expense exposure due to the new construction. Rental increases of ten percent (10%) occur every five (5) years throughout the term and option periods. The lease is unconditionally guaranteed by DaVita, Inc., one of the world’s leading kidney care providers, operating more than 2,724 outpatient clinics across 46 states and providing acute inpatient dialysis services in approximately 850 hospitals nationwide. DaVita, Inc. is publicly traded and ranked No. 323 on the Fortune 500. As of December 31, 2022, the company reported revenues exceeding $11.61 billion and net income of approximately $547 million. DaVita, Inc. is credit-rated Ba3 by Moody’s Investor Services and BB by Standard & Poor’s Rating Service. Berkshire Hathaway, led by Warren Buffett, is a long-time shareholder and owns approximately 38% of the company’s outstanding shares, representing one of its largest equity positions.

LEED Certified Buildings For Sale

LEED Certified Buildings

A LEED certified building is one that has been built to meet certain environmental standards, with special attention given to energy conservation and indoor air quality. The goal of a LEED Certified Building is to use less energy than traditional buildings. They can be green in other ways as well: implementing sustainable materials, reducing water consumption or limiting its impact.

LEED stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. This rating system has been developed by the US Green Building Council (USGBC) to promote buildings that are environmentally responsible, profitable and healthy places to live and work.

Why should I invest in a LEED certified building?

An investment in a LEED certified building can reduce the carbon footprint that results from your business's annual energy consumption by up to 30%. A LEED certified building also has an advantage over other buildings during the sale process because potential buyers are increasingly trying to reduce their own carbon footprint and energy costs and will pay more for a building that has done so.

Some areas also provide tax credits, zoning allowances, reduced fees, and expedited permitting for building owners who choose to implement green measures in their buildings. Studies have found that for-rent LEED office spaces generally have higher rents and occupancy rates and lower capitalization rates.

What do I need to keep in mind before investing in a LEED certified building?

A LEED certified building has extra up front costs may take years to recoup through energy savings, so careful planning must be made before investing in this type of design. Carefully weigh these up front costs against the long term benefits that a LEED certified building can provide your business.

Green tags are an optional third party verification system that can be added to your LEED certified building. The green tags show the public at large the commitment you have made to sustainability. They also allow potential clients, buyers and tenants to know exactly what they are getting when they sign with you.

What kinds of buildings can be LEED certified?

Any building that has been constructed after the release of the LEED rating system in 2000 is eligible to become a LEED certified building.

New construction, renovation and existing buildings are all good candidates for this certification as long as they meet certain requirements. For example, an old building may not have the right kind of insulation, so it will need to be retrofitted before being able to achieve LEED certification.

A building can also be awarded different levels of certification depending on how green it is.

LEED for New Construction:

- The construction of a new building that is seeking LEED certification must follow strict guidelines for energy conservation and environmental impact.

A LEED certified building will have a smaller carbon footprint than a traditional building because it is designed to minimize the consumption of fossil fuels.

LEED Certified Renovation Projects:

The renovation of an existing building can also use LEED certification as long as it follows specific guidelines. These ratings are given on two scales:

- The first rating system, based on points, is for buildings that undertake a major renovation project. This rating system requires the renovation to be done in such a way as to reduce consumption and provide environmental benefits. For example, if an older building is being renovated then it will be required to have more insulation than usual, which helps cut down on energy use.

- The second rating system is based on a checklist that has been designed for smaller renovation projects such as room additions or new HVAC equipment. The points from this checklist are added up and if the total equals sixty then the building can become LEED certified.

LEED Certified Existing Buildings:

- A project that is attempting to obtain LEED certification for an existing building must follow guidelines in six different categories in order to be eligible for this rating. These categories are sustainable sites, water efficiency, energy and atmosphere, materials and resources, indoor environmental quality and innovation in design.

Benefits of a LEED building:

The benefits of LEED certification are numerous. A building that has achieved this status is committed to reducing its carbon footprint and therefore offers great rewards for the environment at large.

- A decrease in energy consumption and therefore energy costs. Since a LEED building uses less fossil fuels, by design, it will have lower utility bills than traditional buildings

- A healthier building. LEED buildings are better ventilated and have less volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, than traditional buildings.

- A building that may be more profitable because it uses alternative energy sources and therefore has lower operating costs than a non-LEED certified building.

- Other benefits may include increased worker productivity, healthier indoor spaces and credit worthiness with lenders and investors.
