CarHaven Relocates to Owings Mills in Strategic Expansion Move

Rosso Commercial Real Estate has successfully arranged a new lease for CarHaven, a locally owned pre-owned vehicle dealership, facilitating its relocation from Millersville to a 13,000 square foot auto dealership at 11405 Reisterstown Road in Owings Mills. The new property sits on 1.7 acres along one of Baltimore County's most active commercial corridors, providing CarHaven with excellent frontage, strong traffic counts, and the infrastructure to support its growing operations.

Steve Travers, Owner of CarHaven, stated that the Rosso Commercial team made the transition seamless, helping secure the perfect location to continue serving customers. CarHaven was referred to Ryan Brassel of Rosso Commercial to guide the site selection and relocation process. After conducting a thorough market search throughout the region, Brassel identified the second-generation automotive property on Reisterstown Road as a strategic opportunity for CarHaven to expand its visibility and reach in the marketplace.

Brassel emphasized that CarHaven's reputation for trust and transparency with customers made the relocation particularly significant, noting that the new location positions the business for continued success in the years ahead. The transaction involved collaboration between Ryan Brassel at RossoCRE, who represented CarHaven, and Geoff Mackler & John Schultz at HR Retail, who represented the landlord.

This relocation demonstrates how strategic commercial real estate positioning can significantly impact local businesses' growth potential, particularly in the competitive automotive retail sector where visibility and accessibility are critical factors for success. The move to a high-traffic corridor like Reisterstown Road provides CarHaven with enhanced exposure to potential customers and better infrastructure to support its operations, reflecting broader trends in commercial real estate where location optimization drives business expansion strategies.
