Owner/User Machine Shop Purchases San Jose Property

2Spec Machining Bears Standard of an Undamaged Industrial Sector

(May 21, 2021 – SAN JOSE, CA) –

 

2Spec Machining purchased the freestanding industrial manufacturing building at 260 Cimino Street on Friday, May 14^th. Located across from The Plant Shopping Center and on the other side of the Almaden/Guadalupe Freeway from Willow Glen, the 9,552 SF shop is the corner-forward structure along Little Orchard Street in the neighhborhood’s industrial cluster. The building, as purchased, was divisible into 4 units, however 2Spec Machining intends on occupying the entire space.

Finding industrial space of this type is a difficult prospect in San Jose at the moment for small, growing manufacturing operations. “They’ve been looking for a while now,” said Marty Morici, the senior broker representing the buyer. “In order to make this kind of buy happen, you have to move fast. We toured on Thursday, and on Friday our offer had been accepted.”

 

2Spec, which nearly doubled the amount of space they needed, is a good presentation of the unique challenges faced by small businesses in San Jose, where large companies absorb satellite property, but also keep the market resilient against the pandemic’s recession effects. SBA Financing was an important key in keeping 2Spec’s offer competitive and nimble, however the challenges don’t end there – the seller, a previous owner/user of 260 Cimino Street, is moving their operations to Texas. Expensive, crowded markets will always demand the question of whether to cash out or dig in during times of transition.

 

260 Cimino Street was sold at $3,250,000. The seller was represented by Marty Morici, Kate Wright, and Scott Bendorf of TRI Commercial.
