Calkain Companies Brokers Liberty Station In Bealeton, VA
Transaction sets pace for ‘Fringe’ Metro DC markets

Reston, VA – Calkain Companies, a national real estate investment brokerage firm, has procured the sale of a mixed use development that includes two retail centers with over 21,000 square feet of leased space, three undeveloped out-parcels and a child care facility in Bealeton, VA.  Tenants including Cingular Wireless, VA ABC, Children of America and U.S. Parcel occupied the retail spaces and signed long term, triple net leases.  Located on the heavily traveled Route 17 corridor, Liberty Station is centrally located between Fredericksburg and Warrenton, Virginia and is just fifty minutes from Washington, DC.

Rick Fernandez, Calkain Realty Advisors’ Director of Business Development, the private market division of Calkain Companies, represented the developer/seller in the transaction.  “With our headquarters in the Washington Metro area, we intuitively understand the trends of the market and realize that the areas that were once considered ancillary to the region are now seeing a plethora of attention from both developers and investors,” explained Fernandez.  Jonathan Hipp, Calkain’s President and CEO added, “The $6.9 million transaction proves that third party investors are beginning to see the benefit of allocating their funds to ‘fringe’ markets with the understanding that the Mid-Atlantic region, as a whole, has intrinsic investment benefits.”

The transaction closed in January 2008 and is currently recorded in the public record.
