CBRE Arranges Sale of Owner-User Office Building in San Gabriel, California

CBRE facilitated the sale of a 25,320-square-foot office building at 526 West Las Tunas Drive in San Gabriel, California. The property was acquired by nonprofit Chinatown Service Center for $8.2 million.

CBRE’s Mark Shaffer, Anthony DeLorenzo and Dylan Rutigliano represented the seller, 211 LA, with Natalie Bazarevitsch and Jackie Benavidez representing the buyer, Chinatown Service Center, in the transaction.

Originally developed in 1955 as a regional bank branch, the two-story, elevator-served office building features a mid-century modern design with brick, glass and steel elements. The building includes three levels plus a basement and offers drive-around surface parking.

“This transaction reflects the continued demand for well-located office properties that can accommodate owner-user needs,” said Shaffer, senior vice president at CBRE. “Opportunities like this are increasingly rare in the San Gabriel Valley, particularly for buyers seeking immediate occupancy in a premier location with walkable amenities.”

The property had not been available for sale in nearly 26 years and was marketed as an owner-user opportunity capable of accommodating approximately 20,000 to 25,000 square feet. The building has been consistently maintained and upgraded, including a new roof, a backup diesel generator, a three-stop hydraulic elevator installed in 2021 and lighting largely retrofitted to LED.

Located along Las Tunas Drive in the western San Gabriel Valley, the property offers convenient access to surrounding communities.

According to CBRE research, the San Gabriel Valley remains one of the top-performing office markets in the Greater Los Angeles region, with a direct vacancy rate of 9.2% in the first quarter of 2026, well below the regional average.
