Alta West Partners, Glendon Capital Management and an affiliate of A2 Capital Management, have closed on the $21.4-million purchase of 3401 Del Amo in Torrance, an 83,000-square-foot flex research and development asset in the South Bay submarket of Los Angeles County. Originally purpose-built for Kubota Tractor Corporation, the property has never been publicly marketed for lease. 

A Cushman & Wakefield broker team led by Brett Racanelli, Nathan Piehl and Jeff Morgan represented the buyer as well as the seller in the all-cash trade. Cushman & Wakefield was also retained by the new owner to handle leasing efforts for the property going forward.

“This property aligns with Alta West’s investment strategy, and we were pleased to have supported them throughout a very smooth closing process,” said Racanelli. “Torrance continues to attract innovative companies in technology, aerospace, and advanced manufacturing, making this a prime location for R&D and flex users.”
