Darwin Realty brokers two sales, two leases

ELMHURST - Darwin Realty Principal Noel S. Liston and Associate Nick Krejci recently represented four end users in the purchase or lease of new space in the suburbs.

The two sales and two leases totaled 69,687 square feet, all in high-quality buildings with good access to major highways.

Liston and Krejci represented a private investor in the purchase of 820 McArdle Drive in Crystal Lake. The high-image precast multitenant 15,840 square foot building was fully leased at the time of the sale. The seller, Dakota-Crystal Lake, LLC, was represented by Premier Commercial Realty's Tina Kropke and Heather Schweitzer.

Liston and Krejci also represented DRB Enterprises in the sale of a 9,500 square foot building at 1160 Abbott Drive in Elgin to tool grinding machine manufacturer J. Schneeberger Corp. The free-standing building with access to I-90 via Route 31 and Randall Road offers the buyer a space to demonstrate their machinery to their customers.

IMPEX GLS, a freight forwarding and supply chain management company, has leased 32,477 square feet within a 124,028 square foot building at 2475 Touhy Ave. in Elk Grove Village. The tenant selected the building because of its heavier office footprint and loading capabilities. Liston and Krejci worked on behalf of IMPEX GLS and Colliers International's Tom Rodeno represented the landlord, PPF Industrial 2475 Touhy Avenue, LLC.

Sound system and equipment provider Gary Gand Music, Inc. was represented by Liston and Krejci in its renewal of 11,870 square feet of space within the 54,130 square foot building at 1107 Mark St. in Elk Grove Village. The site has great access to highways, allowing the business to access concert venues and other job sites it needs to reach throughout the Midwest. The REIT building owner was represented in-house.
