Transwestern sells 392,983‑sq‑ft warehouse

Transwestern Investments said on May 19 that it sold San Bernardino I, a 392,983-square-foot Class A industrial warehouse in San Bernardino, California. The company did not identify the buyer or disclose pricing in its announcement. REBusinessOnline reported the sale on May 20, citing the same undisclosed terms. The property sits in the Inland Empire East submarket, one of Southern California’s core logistics corridors. ### Which building changed hands in San Bernardino? San Bernardino I totals 392,983 square feet and was completed in 2019, according to Transwestern and REBusinessOnline. The warehouse is described as a Class A logistics asset in San Bernardino, within the Inland Empire East submarket. The building’s specifications are the kind typically highlighted in modern distribution marketing. (transwestern.com) Transwestern said the property has a 36-foot clear height, 56 dock-high doors, two grade-level doors, 185-foot truck courts, 117 trailer stalls and 264 auto parking spaces. ### Why do those specifications matter to warehouse users? (transwestern.com) The 56 dock-high doors and 185-foot truck courts indicate a layout built for heavy truck circulation and loading volume. The 117 trailer stalls add on-site storage capacity for trailers, while the 36-foot clear height supports denser racking and higher inventory storage. Those features were listed in Transwestern’s sale announcement as part of the property profile. (transwestern.com) A marketing flyer for the property described it as a cross-dock facility with expandable spec office space and a location roughly 75 miles from the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. That brochure predates the sale, but it shows how the asset was positioned to logistics tenants and investors. ### What do we know about the seller and the deal terms? (transwestern.com) Transwestern Investments identified itself as the seller and said only that it had completed the disposition of the asset. Neither Transwestern nor REBusinessOnline named the buyer, brokers on the sale, or the sale price. The absence of pricing means the transaction does not provide a public valuation benchmark. (img-resized-cache.catylist.com) What is public is the asset profile: a recently built, large-format logistics building in a major Inland Empire submarket. That is the factual basis available from the seller’s release and the trade report. ### Where does this fit in Transwestern’s Inland Empire activity? (transwestern.com) Transwestern has been active in Inland Empire industrial development for several years. A 2021 company release said Transwestern Investment Group sold a 225,000-square-foot speculative warehouse in Perris, California, another Inland Empire market. (transwestern.com) Company materials tied to San Bernardino logistics projects also show Transwestern personnel working on industrial developments and trailer-storage projects elsewhere in San Bernardino and Colton. Those references do not relate directly to this sale, but they place San Bernardino I within a broader regional logistics development footprint. ### What is still not public about the transaction? The buyer’s identity, the capitalization rate, financing details and sale price were not included in the May 19 announcement. (transwestern.com) No deed filing or separate buyer statement appeared in the materials surfaced for this report. For now, the next public record to watch is a property transfer filing in San Bernardino County or a future statement from the buyer identifying ownership and investment plans for San Bernardino I.
