Wilmington, N.C. – April 30, 2018 – Cape Fear Commercial today announced that it represented MegaCorp Logistics in the $7.4 million purchase of two class-A office buildings in Wilmington’s Landfall/Mayfaire submarket.

MegaCorp recently acquired 1011 and 1013 Ashes Drive, consisting of 30,595 and 16,800 square feet respectively, from Ashes Drive LLC. The logistics company plans to renovate and occupy 1011 Ashes Drive while continuing to lease all space at 1013 Ashes Drive out to other organizations until such time that it requires additional square footage.

Senior Vice President Spruill Thompson with Cape Fear Commercial negotiated the transaction on behalf of the buyer. Coldwell Banker Commercial’s Cody Cress and Tyler Pegg represented the seller. The firms worked closely with the seller’s in-house consultant, Gavin Howe, and Faison Sutton of Murchison Taylor & Gibson PLLC to complete the complex transaction.

According to Thompson, “We are pleased that MegaCorp Logistics once again relied on Cape Fear Commercial to assist them with their commercial real estate needs. It is great to see Wilmington-based companies continue to grow and thrive, as an expanding employment base is vital to the success of our community.”

Cape Fear Commercial assisted MegaCorp in the acquisition of its current office buildings located at 527 Causeway Drive and 7040 Wrightsville Ave. In light of recent events, MegaCorp has engaged the firm to list both properties for sale.

“Spruill Thompson and Cape Fear Commercial continually do a good job for us,” said T. Ryan Legg, owner of MegaCorp Logistics. “Cape Fear Commercial helped me to lease MegaCorp’s first office in Wilmington when I had just four employees and has assisted me to finding facilities for our growing company over the years. We are pleased to announce that MegaCorp now employs 134 people in the Wilmington office.”
