McShane, MetLife sell Houston’s Guhn Road Distribution

HOUSTON – Close to a year after Forum Energy Technologies leased the entire 253,838-sf Guhn Road Distribution Center, McShane Development Co. and MetLife Real Estate Investments have sold the industrial property. The buyer was a commingled fund advised by Clarion Partners.

The sales price was not available for the asset at 6535 Guhn Rd., though the original asking price was $18.5 million.

Forum Energy Technologies, which serves the energy industry’s operations, signed a ten-year lease for the property.
