LOWELL MA – Jumbo Capital Management, LLC acquired 75 Technology Drive from Suffolk Advisors in an off-market transaction facilitated by Anthony Biette of Peak Real Estate Partners.

Adding 62,000sf of semiconductor lab and R&D space to their existing 4.5 million sf of real estate in the Greater Boston Area, Jumbo partnered with blue-chip credit tenant Microchip Technology Inc. who occupies the entire facility. The transaction was capitalized by a Joint Venture partnership between Jumbo and Iron Point Real Estate Partners, and a newly originated loan with Middlesex Savings Bank.

75 Technology Drive is well located in the Drum Hill Technology Park of Lowell, MA. With strong amenities in the immediate area and superior access to the Northwest Expressway (MA-3) and I-495, this 1980s vintage building has been home to this semiconductor division of Microchip Technology since 1988.

Jumbo and Iron Point are excited to transact for a third time this year and continue the successful relationship with Vice President Jeff Kerl and his team at Middlesex Savings Bank.”

Jumbo Capital partner Brad Spencer said: “we were attracted to the below market rent, below replacement cost pricing and a very strong credit tenant with many expensive improvements throughout the facility.”
