Closures and Foreclosures
20. ?A report by Marcus & Millichap says that even with the rising market, Phoenix still has more than $1.5B in distressed retail inventory. Sales activity in this segment is still dominated by REO and short sales. The major victim in the market downturn is the strip mall purchased or refinanced during the height of the market. Many balloons are maturing and landlords are faced with high vacancy rates and inadequate access to capital for refinancing.
21. ?A 273K SF office project adjoining the Broadway Curve, Phoenix, has been placed into foreclosure. The Sky Harbor Towers is slated for the auction block on January 15. The complex has a seven-story building with 117K SF and two four-story midrise units with 85K SF and 71K SF respectively. Colliers International has the leasing assignment for the mostly vacant building. Originally occupied by the University of Phoenix?taking three of the buildings?the properties were vacated in 2011 when the college opened its own facilities a little further west on I-10.
