U.S.A.’s former U.S. headquarters campus in Cypress, California, for a reported $115 million. The 25-acre property is still expected to be leased back to Yamaha through December 31, 2028, while the company moves its U.S. headquarters functions to Georgia.
Who bought Yamaha’s former headquarters?
The buyer was Walt Disney Parks and Resorts U.S. Inc., and the seller was Yamaha Motor Corp. U.S.A., according to L.A. Business First and a separate report by North OC Pulse. Yamaha spokesperson Martin Peters told North OC Pulse, “I can confirm that the property is sold, and the transaction is complete.”
How much did Disney pay?
L.A. Business First reported a $115 million sale price. North OC Pulse reported an implied value of $115.29 million, calculated from public-record transfer-tax information, and said the sale closed September 23, 2026. That more precise figure is an implied value, not a separately stated purchase price on the deed, according to the public-record reporting.
What is on the Cypress campus?
The site at 6555 Katella Avenue covers 25 acres and includes industrial, flex and office buildings totaling approximately 279,000 square feet, according to L.A. Business First. It occupies an entire city block, with access from Katella Avenue, Holder Street and Yamaha Way.
#1 Best Overall
Avison Young broker Paul Clark described the property’s appeal in L.A. Business First: “It’s extremely difficult to find 25 contiguous acres of by-right industrial land in a core infill location in Southern California, particularly with substantial improvements already in place.” That is the broker’s assessment of the site’s market appeal, rather than a broader market statistic.
When will Yamaha leave?
Yamaha has used the Cypress campus as its U.S. headquarters since 1979. The company announced plans to relocate its headquarters functions to Kennesaw, Georgia; earlier coverage also said Yamaha intended a sale-leaseback to maintain operations during the transition.

Yamaha is reported to lease the Cypress property back through December 31, 2028. The leaseback means the completed sale does not itself mean the campus is already vacant.

L.A. Business First reports, citing the Orange County Register, that Disney intends to use the property for “back-of-house operations.” The plan has not been directly confirmed by Disney in the available reporting. A separate account says the deed names the buyer and seller but does not specify the intended use, so the reported plan should be treated as provisional.
