Wilhelm Sauls Investments, LLC (WSI), is developing the “Downtown Marketplace”; a new construction three story, 51,455 square foot retail and office property at the gateway to Downtown Murrieta. The project includes a ground floor focused on restaurants and retail with dedicated parking and a highly desirable rooftop restaurant and bar on the third floor. Upon completion, the property is expected to produce operating income when stabilized, and capital gains income upon the future sale of the property. The property is owned by WSI (owners of Downtown SPE 906-090-014, LLC) who is coordinating completion of final plans and construction financing to fund the project buildout and leasing. WSI, the principals of WSI, and the development team are committed to the success of this project.
Qualified restaurants, retail owners and office tenants will be considered for one of the best locations available in the Murrieta/Temecula market area.
The Downtown Murrieta offers location, convenience, character, demographics, traffic counts of 17,400+adt, a mix of complementary businesses and neighbors in an architecturally prominent building at the gateway entry to Downtown Murrieta making Downtown Marketplace an exciting place to be.
The “Downtown Marketplace”, is designed and approved as a three story mixed use commercial office and retail project. Upon completion and lease up the building will be refinanced to permanent financing at interest rates according to the market at such time of the refinance. Refinance proceeds in excess of paying off debt required for construction and stabilization, if any, will be distributed to equity investors as a return of capital.
The Existing Site
The site is located on the southeast corner of Kalmia Street and Washington Avenue in Murrieta, California. The site is approximately 72,140 square feet. The property is currently undeveloped. Under the approved plans, site improvements will include new sidewalk, curb and gutter, utility connections and under-grounding of utilities.
Current Owner
The owner of the property is Downtown SPE 906-090-014, LLC), a California limited liability Company currently owned solely by Wilhelm Sauls Investments, LLC (owned equally by Tami C. Wilhelm and Edwin G. Sauls individually). Additionally, related parties, Wilhelm Sibling Trust and Hemet Ranch LLC are the existing first trust deed lender on the project.
The Approved Project
The project has received City of Murrieta approval. The approved project consists of three stories of retail and office space comprising of 51,569 rentable sq. ft. including a roof top restaurant and bar, and 113 parking spaces. Additional parking spaces will be shared with a neighboring property and through public on street parking. This project approval allows for immediate progress to construction without any further discretionary approvals (construction documents are in process).
Regulatory Context
The site is zoned Mixed Use, allowing incentives for development consistent with the Downtown Master Plan including reduced fees, reduced setbacks and flexible parking requirements.
Construction Drawings
Construction drawings are designed by JG Stouse Constructors, Inc. Anticipated date for construction permit issuance is on or about January 2020. Site improvement plans are prepared by Mayers and Associates Civil Engineering Inc. It is expected that the site improvement plans will be completed and approved prior to the expected construction permit approval so site work can commence in advance of approved building plans.
Mixed Use Concept
The project has been designed consistent with building codes and underlying zoning, to operate as a three-story commercial mixed-use project with restaurant, office, and retail uses. The ground floor offers open deck seating for restaurants fronting on Washington avenue and a separate lobby providing two elevators and stairway access for upper level office and restaurants. Walk through areas provide easy access to parking and street frontage restaurants. The third floor level includes view decks for outdoor dining and private offices.
Marketability of Office, Retail and Restaurant Space
Downtown Murrieta provides a blend of character, history and convenience offering a unique niche discerning tastes of today’s commercial tenants. The two most comparable properties are adjacent and immediately across the street on Washington Avenue. These are similar mixed-use properties in the area at or close to 100% occupied (as of the time of this writing). The subject property offers better design features such as covered patio and roof top dining, private view decks for third floor offices and superior exterior architectural features. Murrieta’s Downtown is the popular destination for growth of restaurants and office space having a unique identity that sets it apart from the typical commercial space. The Murrieta area tourism market has been growing at a record pace. Evidence of this is Wyndham Timeshare’s recent purchase of the thirteen-acre parcel located at the opposite corner to Downtown Marketplace where approximately 160 condominiums are planned as timeshare units. Additionally, the Northeast corner of this primary interesting is anticipating development of a 100+ room hotel.
Business Plan
The Plan is to construct and operate the project for production of income over a multi-year period.. During the operating period, cost segregation of depreciable assets will minimize taxable income. Significant cash distributions, with entirely or substantially deferred federal tax liabilities, are anticipated. The Manager may choose to liquidate the property at any time but anticipates holding the property into perpetuity, though investors in the project will have the right to exit at the end of year five and every two years thereafter.
