Medical office space for lease in Chula Vista
10 buildings with 36,768 SF of medical space available across 18 listed spaces. Five buildings publish an asking rent; no class has five or more on one lease structure, too few to call a figure typical.
Chula Vista has 10 buildings with medical space listed this September, and five of them won't put a rent on the listing.
Only five publish a direct asking rent, mostly Modified Gross, at $2.38 to $3.15/SF/month. The rest quote on request, once they know the size, the use and what the space has to become. Nothing unusual in that. It does mean a spreadsheet built from listings compares 5 of 10 buildings and calls it the market.
Here's the part that gets less attention. Only 2 of 18 listed spaces are 4,200 SF or larger. From the real estate side, scarce large space is a reason to ask about two adjacent suites as well as one big one. Ask each landlord what's contiguous (next to each other on the same floor), not just what's listed.
Put together: 5 of 10 buildings in Chula Vista post no rent, and only 2 of 18 spaces are 4,200 SF or larger. Size, not price, is the constraint for a bigger practice here. How many exam rooms will your practice need at the end of the next lease, not the start?
