Appen Inc. will occupy 50,000 square feet for its first Texas location. The Australian data firm already has offices in California, Michigan and Washington. Transwestern represented the owner, Champion Partners, while CBRE assisted the tenant.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of increased leasing activity, including Paragon Healthcare\u2019s 70,000-square-foot lease in December and a 25,000-square-foot lease in November by a Samsung division, the asset\u2019s vacancy rate reached 20 percent in late February.<\/p>\n<p>Located at 3033 W. President George Bush Highway, the three-story property came online in 2007. In 2019, the owner made major improvements to the LEED Gold-certified building, including upgrading a conference room, tenant lounge, gym, caf\u00e9 and an outdoor patio, according to Steve Modory of Champion Partners.<\/p>\n<p>The property is situated some 18 miles north of downtown Dallas and approximately 22 miles from Dallas\/Fort Worth International Airport. Additionally, the building is 5 miles from the Dallas North Tollway, which provides access to Interstate 635.<\/p>\n<p>The Transwestern team that brokered the deal on behalf of the owner included Senior Vice President Nathan Durham and Managing Director Duane Henley. CBRE Senior Vice President Clay Vaughn and Vice President Preston Lynn assisted the tenant.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, a different Transwestern team facilitated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/rmr-group-renews-full-building-lease-in-houston\/\">a full-building lease renewal<\/a> at a 97,300-square foot office property in Houston.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Australian data firm signed a 50,000-square-foot lease in Plano for its first Texas location.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":867,"featured_media":1004396105,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21784,1586,21743,21742,21747],"tags":[32789,48842,33313],"class_list":["post-1004396102","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-brokerage","category-dallas","category-deals","category-latest","category-office","tag-cbre","tag-champion-partners","tag-transwestern"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Appen Expands US Presence - Commercial Property Executive<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/appen-expands-us-presence\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Appen Expands US Presence\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Australian data firm signed a 50,000-square-foot lease in Plano for its first Texas location.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/appen-expands-us-presence\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Commercial Property Executive\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/CPExecutive\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2020-02-28T12:06:52+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2020\/02\/The-APEX.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"800\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"620\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Pavel Cazacu\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@cpexecutive\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@cpexecutive\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/appen-expands-us-presence\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/appen-expands-us-presence\/\",\"name\":\"Appen Expands US Presence - Commercial Property Executive\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/appen-expands-us-presence\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/appen-expands-us-presence\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2020\/02\/The-APEX.jpg\",\"datePublished\":\"2020-02-28T12:06:52+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/#\/schema\/person\/caac04e9f88552f7c898ba456c2498d8\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/appen-expands-us-presence\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/appen-expands-us-presence\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/appen-expands-us-presence\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2020\/02\/The-APEX.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2020\/02\/The-APEX.jpg\",\"width\":800,\"height\":620,\"caption\":\"The APEX.
