Foreclosure of big East Bay office hub shows plunging property values
"The two foreclosed office buildings are located at 2000 and 2010 Crow Canyon Place in San Ramon, according to documents filed on Dec. 4 with the Contra Costa County Recorder's Office. The office complex is known as Plaza San Ramon. It consists of two similar buildings that together total 312,000 square feet. Texas-based real estate firm C-III Capital Partners had bought the buildings in 2018 and lost them through the foreclosure."
"Redus Properties, a Wells Fargo subsidiary, took the office buildings back through the foreclosure, Contra Costa County public documents show. The office complex is now valued at $30 million as a result of the foreclosure, according to public records. In recent years, Redus has foreclosed on multiple properties in multiple states that Wells Fargo had financed. The new $30 million value for the offices is 58% below the $72.2 million that C-III Capital paid to buy them in 2018."
Two office buildings at 2000 and 2010 Crow Canyon Place in San Ramon, totaling 312,000 square feet, make up Plaza San Ramon. C-III Capital Partners purchased the complex in 2018 with financing from Wells Fargo. Loan delinquency led to foreclosure and Redus Properties, a Wells Fargo subsidiary, took the buildings back. Public records show the complex is now valued at $30 million, 58% below the $72.2 million 2018 purchase price and 49% below the $59.2 million in unpaid mortgage debt. Rising vacancy rates and soft rents pressure East Bay office markets. Future plans for the buildings are unclear.
