The Spear St. asset stands 18-story tall on the waterfront of the San Francisco Bay and had an occupancy rate of 82 percent at the time of the transaction. The building\u2019s tenant roster includes names such as Verizon Business Solutions, CoreLogic and Moovweb. With the city seeing improving average rates in terms of vacancy and rent rates over the past year, the new owner will most likely also look to benefit from the high tech appeal the local market currently has.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/synd.yardi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/12\/san-francisco-vacancy-rates.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-226071\" title=\"san francisco vacancy rates\" src=\"https:\/\/synd.yardi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/12\/san-francisco-vacancy-rates.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"271\" height=\"203\" \/><\/a>According to Marcus and Millichap Real Estate Investment Services, the city\u2019s office market saw a surge of 33 percent in terms of deals for the last 12 months ending in October of 2013.
