The Boulder Group, a net leased investment brokerage firm, has completed the sale of a single tenant net leased Walgreens property located at 1240 W Main St in Bridgeport, West Virginia for $5,830,000.
The 13,292 square foot Walgreens benefits from its hard corner location in a thriving retail corridor. National retailers in the immediate area include Home Depot, Sam’s Club, Walmart Supercenter, Lowe’s, Kohl’s, Kroger and numerous banks, restaurants and hotels. Meadowbrook Mall, an 849,206 square feet regional shopping mall anchored by JCPenney and Target, is located just north along Interstate 79. Additionally, the property is located near Bridgeport High School (724 students) which drives additional traffic to the trade corridor. Bridgeport is located conveniently in North Central West Virginia, two hours north of the State Capital, Charleston, and two hours south of Pittsburgh, PA. The average household income within three miles of the property is $71,738.
Randy Blankstein and Jimmy Goodman of The Boulder Group represented the seller in the transaction; a West Coast based REIT. The buyer was a private investor in a 1031 tax exchange.
The Walgreens lease expires January 31, 2036 and features five 10-year renewal option periods. There are rare rental escalations in the renewal options. Walgreens is the largest drug retailing chain in the United States and has over 8,175 locations in the U.S.A. Walgreens is publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (WBA) with a market capitalization in excess of $63 billion. Both Walgreen Co. and Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc. are investment grade rated each with a Standard & Poor’s rating of BBB.
