Comments: See APN: 30-342-11-027 & 30-342-11-065. Property was listed and sold by Mark Bennett of Westar Real Property Services Inc., 303-798-0212. Colorado School of Mines has occupied approximately 6,900 square feet for the last eight years. The seller hired Bennett to sell the building and the School of Mines was one of the first calls made. The transaction was a normal transaction with approximately 45-day due diligence period, with a cash buyer. The building had an additional 2,365 square feet of basement area that was not calculated in the building size. *Verified by the Jefferson County Assessor’s Office and the listing broker. Bennett believed the Colorado School of Mines was the “perfect buyer” as it was the anchor tenant in the building for the last several years. The building sold on an in-place cap rate of “nearly 7 percent.”
