 About Arnell Enterprises
Arnell was founded in Manhattan Beach, California, in October 1969 as a small Real Estate Investment and Property Management company, and was formally incorporated in February 1971 when it expanded to include construction operations. The original Board consisted of Roger W. Burnell, John R. Shumway, and James R. Ewing, Jr., and the real estate broker in charge of acquisitions, leasing, and sale was for over 25 years Jason Lane, originally serving as the City’s Mayor and associated with Riddle & Ross, and later the principal founder of Lane & Fawcett Realtors. During its growth years, projects expanded from apartment buildings into single family residences, tract homes, strip centers, condominiums, office buildings, shopping centers and professional plazas. One of its two original real estate brokers, Bill Ross, remained involved as the company’s condominium subdivision attorney.
Current Focus
Today the company specializes in acquiring and then sourcing or assembling design, planning, architecture, engineering, construction, interior decoration, leasing, property management, and sales services for a select range of projects of interest, that extend from the special boutique (such as residential remodels) and historical renovations to the more grandiose, such as land and commercial development projects. Examples include a Commercial Center in Delray Beach, Florida, 179 condominiums on 10 acres in Scottsdale, Arizona, and a Regional SaveMart Shopping Center near Fresno, California. Special undertakings have included the development of a community Recreational Center in Thousand Oaks, California, and the stewardship of its consulting division, HRI (Human Resource International) which specializes in executive and group training in the field of organizational communication and corporate effectiveness.
Teaming for its Mission
In 1987 Arnell relocated from Santa Monica to Los Altos, California, and is today well-served by a diversified and dedicated team of professionals that include Kenneth Deakins, Senior Partner of CBIZ in West Los Angeles (Accounting & Financial Planning), Pahl & Gosselin and Miller Morton Caillat & Nevis of San Jose (Corporate and Real Estate Law), Hoover Associates of Palo Alto (Residential and Commercial Architecture), Sandoval Associates (Historical Renovation Architecture), and BCV Architects of San Francisco (Retail Development). Acquisitions and sales are managed by Theodore Kokernak of Marcus and Millichap’s Kokernak Group, who became a development partner in 2005. Primary leasing affiliates include: Grubb & Ellis, CB Richard Ellis, Cornish & Carey, and The Ritchie Company. Arnell’s current mission is to develop its newest line of value-added commercial renovation and redevelopment projects, first in the San Francisco Bay Area, and then beyond.
