Quick Summary

Skechers is selling its Manhattan Beach headquarters, located at 228 Manhattan Beach Boulevard, after a major renovation in 2018. The three-story building, spanning approximately 28,600 square feet with an underground parking garage, could be valued around $100 million but has no official asking price listed. The property is being sold through CBRE, and its prime location near the beach makes it a rare opportunity in Southern California’s real estate market amid rising office vacancies in the South Bay area.
