Walgreens Pharmacy, Huntington Station, NY Walgreens Pharmacy, 984 New York Avenue - Huntington Station, NY

Walgreens Pharmacy is located at 984 New York Avenue in Huntington Station, NY.  The site has a drive thru and sits on a 1.45 acre lot. Walgreens has two years remaining on a 20-year, firm term, double-net (NN) lease with eight, five-year options. The lease is guaranteed by Walgreens Company, the nation’s largest drugstore chain.

“When we took on assignment, a competitor had been marketing the asset for 90+ days so we knew we needed a tailored approach to successfully transact,” said Corcoran. “We executed on our plan andwithin 33 days had 7 written offers and went under contract 122 basis points lower than the market and closed at a record cap rate.”

“This transaction signifies both a global hunt for yield along with the strong residual value of core market real estate,” said Sabharwal “The marketing process was tailored toward an investor whose risk profile would be able to manage the short term nature of the lease yet appreciate the underlying real estate fundamentals and scarcity of signalized intersections within the local market.”

With over 1,500 investment professionals located throughout the United States and Canada, Marcus & Millichap is a leading specialist in commercial real estate investment sales, financing, research and advisory services. Founded in 1971, the firm closed over 8,700 transactions in 2015 with a value of approximately $37.8 billion.
