KKR Expands Industrial Portfolio with Acquisition of Park 8Ninety - KKR has completed the acquisition of Park 8Ninety, a prime 12-building industrial logistics park in Houston, from Artis REIT for approximately $234 million. This transaction significantly boosts KKR’s industrial real estate portfolio, adding about 1.8 million square feet of high-quality space. - Located on 127 acres and developed in phases from 2017 to 2022, Park 8Ninety comprises a mix of single and multi-tenant buildings with ceiling heights ranging from 24 to 36 feet. Its strategic positioning offers direct access to Beltway 8, making it a crucial industrial hub in southwest Houston. - Ben Brudney, Managing Director at KKR and head of the firm’s industrial investments in the U.S., emphasized the acquisition’s alignment with KKR’s investment strategy. He noted, “Park 8Ninety is a valuable addition to our national logistics portfolio, expanding our footprint in Houston. The city continues to benefit from strong demand fundamentals and comparatively lower supply than many other U.S. markets.” - The diverse and staggered rent roll of Park 8Ninety enhances its value as a multi-tenant complex, providing stability and potential for long-term income growth. This acquisition was facilitated through the KKR Real Estate Partners Americas III fund, supported by capital accounts advised by KKR. - Since 2018, KKR has committed or acquired approximately $7.5 billion in logistics assets across the U.S. The firm currently owns over 48 million square feet of industrial real estate in major metropolitan areas. With $71 billion in real estate assets under management as of March 31, 2024, KKR’s global real estate business continues to focus on high-quality, thematic investments across both equity and debt. - This acquisition is part of KKR’s broader investment thesis to capitalize on the high-demand logistics sector. The firm’s strategy involves leveraging its extensive platform and expertise to secure and enhance top-tier logistics assets, thereby delivering robust investment returns. #kkr #industrialrealestate #logistics #realestateinvestment #park8ninety #houston #privateequity #commercialrealestate #investmentstrategy #artisreit #cre

Last week, SLX Capital closed on a Class-A retail shopping center in Roanoke, TX. This deal was significant as it marked our first official project together! The process from LOI to contract, due diligence, financing, funding and closing is always exciting... But the real fun starts after you close: - Introducing yourself to the tenants - Ensuring they know who you are - Frequent site visits and surrounding areas - Setting up utilities, trash, pest control and landscaping - Developing and executing maintenance best practices - Rent collection, reporting, budgeting and financials Plus many more responsibilities and situations you'll never fully predict! We pride ourselves on being hands-on. The best way to learn anything is to put yourself in the position of every vendor that you hire to do the work. The second best way to retain your education is to document every detailed process so it can be efficiently replicated for future deals. #acquisitions #commercialrealestate #propertymanagement
