Santa Fe Plaza
Retail | 6.09% CAP | 14,102 SqFt
Marketing description
Santa Fe Plaza is a rare value-add retail investment located at the signalized southwest corner of South Santa Fe Avenue and East 25th Street in Vernon, one of Southern California's most supply-constrained industrial markets. The property consists of a modern five-tenant neighborhood shopping center totaling approximately 14,102 square feet on 1.18 acres with 98 surface parking spaces.
Built in 2006, the center offers high-quality construction with minimal deferred maintenance and strong visibility along one of Vernon's primary commercial corridors. The property is anchored by Circle K and the long-standing Trattoria No. 25, providing stable in-place income while offering significant upside through lease-up of vacant suites and rental rate optimization.
Unlike most retail investments, Santa Fe Plaza benefits from a dense industrial employment base that generates substantial daytime demand from nearby warehouse, logistics, and manufacturing workers. The center is strategically positioned minutes from Downtown Los Angeles with immediate access to Interstates 5, 10, and 710.
