RETAIL OVERVIEW Santee borders El Cajon & Interstate 8 to the south, Lakeside & Highway 67 to the northeast, and is approximately 6 miles east of Interstate 15 on State Route 52 (To be extended to highway 67 by 2011). It is considered a secondary commercial trade area within San Diego County. Santee’s main commercial district is focused around Mission Gorge Road, from Carlton Hills Boulevard to the west and Magnolia Avenue to the east, approximately 1.6 miles in length. The largest concentra>on of retailers is focused around Trolley Center, located on the northwest corner of Mission Gorge Rd. and Cuyamaca Street, also serving as Santee’s transporta>on hub. It’s rela>vely stable housing supply has not experienced the foreclosures in other areas of San Diego such as Chula Vista or Oceanside. The median household income of $76,771, the highest in East County, has also contributed to the stability of retail businesses within the Santee sub‐market. Santee’s retail commercial presence can be defined by three areas: 1. Mission Gorge Road Thoroughfare This 1.6‐mile stretch serves as Santee’s primary commercial district. The majority of Santee’s lifestyle centers, grocery anchored centers, strip centers, corporate headquarters and transporta>on hubs are located along Mission Gorge Road. Retail along this corridor benefits from the regional traffic between Santee, Lakeside, & El Cajon. Recent retail developments include Sudberry’s Marketplace, Walgreens on each end of Mission Gorge, Sonic Burger, and Gateway I which were each completed in the last 24 months. Proposed developments include Santana’s Mexican Food located at 10055 Mission Gorge Rd, as well as Santee’s Riverview office development. Retail rents average between $2.00NNN‐$3.25NNN along the Mission Gorge thoroughfare. NNN expenses for retail space range between $.30‐$.73 depending on the age & tax basis of the subject center. Recent deal terms have included, on average $10/D in tenant improvements, between 60‐90 days free rent, depending on the credit worthiness of the tenant. The main commercial centers have experienced low vacancy levels (<10%) in the last 12‐24 months, with one excep>on of the old Henry’s Center. Barriers to entry in this market include availability of retail space as well as declining revenue expecta>ons from prospec>ve tenants. The majority of Santee’s retail businesses share co‐tenancy with major grocers and soD good vendors and share limited street visibility. There is a shortage of street/vehicular oriented retail space available. The majority of tenants with street front visibility include established banks and “Na>onal” fast food eateries structured into long term leases. Most ground up retail development has occurred along the eastern or western por>on of Mission Gorge Rd. 2. Mast Ave, Carlton Hills, & Magnolia Ave. The streets dissec>ng the arterial Mission Gorge Rd. serve as the secondary retail commercial loca>ons in Santee. These avenues are considered to be more neighborhood‐oriented. These centers have experienced significantly more vacancy than the Mission Gorge thoroughfare, with many spaces remaining vacant for over 12 months. Rents in these loca>ons tend to be between $1.00NNN to $2.00NNN, with NNN expenses remaining rela>vely low, below $.40/D. Tenant interviews have indicated revenues have declined 20% year‐to‐date. Na>onal chain tenants have experienced stable revenues with declines on average less than 10% year‐to‐date, despite current economic condi>ons. Barriers to entry in this market likely include the lack of improved 2nd genera>on stores or restaurants and lack of credit worthiness to support landlord contribu>ons for tenant improvements. 3. Cuyamaca St. & Town Center Parkway This por>on of Santee contains retail that is located behind the Trolley Center (Target), Home Depot, Costco, & K‐Mart retailers. Although not highly visible from Mission Gorge Road, there is perceived value in the synergy created by these regional tenants. The centers located in this area have experienced lease up challenges, with some centers remaining vacant since 2007. There has been lease‐up achieved in second genera>on restaurants by tenant’s such as Rubio’s and Antonio’s Mexican Food, both occurring in early 2009. www.boardwalkdevelopment.com DISCLAIMER: All information contained in this report is deemed to be from reliable sources but is not guaranteed. 2 BOARDWALK DEVELOPMENT, INC.
