Commercial and retail real estate transactions in California generally follow a negotiated purchase or lease agreement process rather than the standardized deposit structures common to residential pre-construction condos. Buyers or tenants typically work through letters of intent, due diligence periods, and negotiated terms specific to the property and its intended use.

For a historic building like the one at 12 South First Street, any acquisition or lease would likely also involve considerations specific to heritage or landmark status, if applicable, which can affect renovation, signage, and use permissions.

Because pricing, terms, and availability for this property have not been disclosed, prospective buyers or tenants should reach out directly to the listing representative or Westbank for current details on process and terms.
