Jul 20, 2015

Venture Commercial Real Estate announced it has represented Fitness International, LLC in deals for two new LA Fitness clubs in Sachse and San Antonio, as the company continues to expand its presence in North and Central Texas.

Venture’s John Zikos, Jonathan Cooper and Cheryl Hill represented LA Fitness in both deals, working with Walt Brown, Jr. and Tim Dollander of Diversified Partners, master brokers for LA Fitness in the Southern United States.

“As LA Fitness continues to expand in Texas, we remain focused on identifying locations that will generate increased foot traffic for the clubs while offering residents easy accessibility to these top-notch facilities,” said Zikos.

In North Texas, LA Fitness has signed a lease and will soon begin construction on a 37,000-square-foot facility that will anchor the Woodbridge Gate development located on the southwest corner of Highway 78 and Woodbridge Parkway in Sachse. David Watson of Direct Property Services, Inc. represented the landlord. The Sachse club is expected to open in early 2016.

In Central Texas, LA Fitness has acquired a five-acre tract of land and has begun construction on a prototype facility in the newest phase of the Potranco Village development, located on the northeast corner of Potranco Road and Loop 1604 in San Antonio. Wade McGinnis represented the seller, Barshop & Oles Company. The Potranco Village club is expected to open in late 2015.

Founded in 1984, LA Fitness is one of the fastest growing sports club chains in the U.S. and presently has more than 650 locations in the U.S. and Canada. For more information, visit www.lafitness.com.
