Younan CEO/chairman Zaya Younan (snapped in December by our LA reporter) says the sale was made after an unsolicited offer from Rosemont, which shows the Dallas market's improving. In Q1, the DFW office market recorded more than 545k SF of positive net absorption, he says: ?We are seeing interest in Dallas by both private and institutional buyers. The timing was favorable but coincidental." And Younan wasn't looking to sell the assets (nor did it need to, he says). "Rosemont Realty approached us. As a result of the sale, the loan was paid off,Zaya tells us.
