Commercial Real Estate in Santa Rosa

Santa Rosa is the largest city in Sonoma County and the commercial hub of the North Bay — and the deepest, most liquid commercial market between San Francisco and the Oregon border.

Santa Rosa carries the county's widest range of commercial product: multi-tenant industrial along the Airway Drive and Piner Road corridors, service and flex space around Santa Rosa Avenue, downtown office and mixed-use near Old Courthouse Square, and neighborhood retail spread across the city's arterials. Because it is the county seat and the regional employment center, it also has the most consistent tenant demand — which is why owner-user buyers and investors both start here.

For buyers, the practical appeal is inventory. Santa Rosa is one of the few North Bay markets where a search for a specific building size, clear height, or zoning designation will usually return more than one option. For tenants, it is highway access: US-101 runs the length of the city and Highway 12 crosses it east–west, putting most of the county inside a thirty-minute drive.

W Commercial is headquartered in Santa Rosa at 500 Bicentennial Way, which means our team is in these buildings weekly rather than quarterly. Stephen Skinner and Cooper Fox both work this market directly.

  • Case Study 3300 Industrial Drive — Tesla Build-to-Suit

    A vacant industrial parcel that had sat idle for over twenty years — entitlement costs made traditional development infeasible. We identified that neighboring 3286 Airway Drive (leased to Tesla) needed additional parking to satisfy City sales-permit requirements, and structured a tenant-funded build-to-suit that turned a no-income lot into a stabilized asset.

  • Case Study 3310 Industrial Drive — Distressed Redevelopment

    A former cannabis facility, partially demolished and generating no cash flow for years, with out-of-state owners who could no longer manage it — sold into a softening industrial market. Rather than a traditional sale, we targeted experienced developers and value-add investors and procured an offer from a developer already working with a national build-to-suit tenant.

  • Testimonial Vince Sigal · Sigal Utility Company

    Stephen Skinner is a consummate professional with a deep understanding of complex commercial real estate transactions. Our company had an extremely specific set of requirements for a rare land acquisition in an exceptionally tight market. Stephen not only identified and secured the ideal site, but also navigated a multifaceted negotiation process that left both buyer and seller highly satisfied — no small feat in today's environment. In a separate transaction, Stephen guided us through a strategic 1031 exchange, identifying a high-quality replacement property that aligned perfectly with our long-term growth objectives. He then successfully leased the property to a national tenant at above-market rates, structuring a sophisticated lease agreement that supported our expansion plans. Stephen's insight, discretion, and negotiation acumen have made him an indispensable partner in our real estate strategy.

  • Testimonial Dennis Green · CDC Countertops Inc.

    Stephen Skinner's market timing and strategic guidance were critical in achieving our long-term goals. He advised us to sell at peak market conditions and secured a strong offer with timelines tailored for a seamless 1031 exchange. Stephen then identified a fully leased triple-net investment that now provides reliable passive income — allowing me to retire with peace of mind. His expertise made the entire process smooth and successful.

  • Testimonial Will Marks · Turo Partners LLC

    Stephen Skinner's strategic insight and execution created substantial value for our investment. He identified a mis-marketed property and negotiated a purchase well below market value, including a further reduction at closing. Post-acquisition, he successfully secured Tesla Motors as a credit tenant on a long-term lease with above-market rent, significantly enhancing the asset's performance and long-term value. His market knowledge and deal-making skill are second to none.

  • Testimonial Peter Robertson & Bobby Sariaslani · UMMA Inc.

    Stephen Skinner's strategic investment guidance was instrumental to our success. He provided deep insight into cannabis industry regulations and the financial implications of our tenant improvement plans. His analysis revealed that purchasing made far greater long-term sense than leasing. Stephen then sourced an off-market asset and negotiated a below-market deal that positioned us for growth. We now operate the most advanced cannabis facility in the U.S. — a direct result of his foresight and expertise.

Common Questions

Santa Rosa Commercial Real Estate FAQ

Who is the best commercial real estate broker in Santa Rosa?

W Commercial Real Estate is a Santa Rosa–headquartered commercial brokerage covering Sonoma County and the North Bay. Stephen Skinner and Cooper Fox handle industrial, office, retail, and investment sales and leasing across the city. The office is at 500 Bicentennial Way, Suite 310, Santa Rosa, CA 95403 — 707-591-0570.

What types of commercial property are available in Santa Rosa?

Santa Rosa has the broadest commercial inventory in Sonoma County: multi-tenant and single-tenant industrial, warehouse and distribution space, flex and R&D buildings, downtown and suburban office, neighborhood and corridor retail, and commercial land. Current availabilities are listed on this page and updated as they come to market.

Is Santa Rosa a good market for an SBA owner-user purchase?

It is one of the better ones in the North Bay, because inventory depth means an owner-user can usually find a building sized to their operation rather than buying more space than they need. Smaller multi-tenant and flex buildings in the 2,000–10,000 SF range come available regularly, and many qualify for SBA 504 or 7(a) financing when the buyer occupies the majority of the space.

How do I lease industrial space in Santa Rosa?

Start with the requirement rather than the listing: square footage, clear height, power, dock or grade-level loading, and the zoning your use needs. From there we can filter current Santa Rosa availabilities and surface off-market options. Call 707-591-0570 or request a consultation to begin.
