Invesco | February 21, 2022
Invesco Real Estate Income Trust Inc. ("INREIT"), an institutionally managed public non-listed REIT, announced today the acquisition of an industrial property and a grocery-anchored retail property. The combined purchase price was $94 million, bringing the gross assets of the INREIT portfolio to more than $850 million.
There continues to be strong demand for the industrial sector, which is benefiting from both secular and cyclical tailwinds. Investing in industrial properties is a strategic objective for INREIT and we are committed to finding the best ideas within the sector, We continue to have strong convictions that physical retail, such as grocery-anchored properties, have a role to play in portfolios and our approach remains selective when evaluating opportunities."
R. Scott Dennis, President and Chief Executive Officer for INREIT.
INREIT acquired a 95% interest in an industrial warehouse facility in the Columbus metropolitan area, where the market vacancy rate is currently below 2% for bulk distribution space. Built in 2000, the 378,283 square foot distribution facility is 100% leased. The property benefits from proximity to the international airport and rail, allowing for same-day and next-day deliveries throughout much of the country since Columbus is a one-day drive from 60% of the U.S. population.
2919-2999 Lewis Centre Way represents INREIT's fourth industrial investment, deepening its activity in the sector. This industrial asset brings INREIT's industrial portfolio to over $85 million, providing a durable income stream with long-term leases. This acquisition is part of a joint venture with Trident Capital Group.
INREIT acquired a 100% interest in Cortlandt Crossing, a newly constructed, high-quality grocery-anchored shopping center located in Westchester, New York. Built in 2019, the 122,225 square foot grocery center is 95% leased with strong, name brand anchors, including ShopRite and HomeSense, an affiliate of the TJX Companies.
INREIT's approach to the retail sector remains highly selective, with a focus on healthy demographics, high-quality trade areas and defensive grocery-anchored assets.

Staley Point Capital | May 05, 2021
Staley Point Capital ("Staley Point"), a value-add investor focusing on commercial assets in Southern California, and Bain Capital Real Estate, Bain Capital's real estate investing division, announced today the off-market purchase of a 100,000 square-foot industrial property in Brea, California, for approximately $21 million.
"Given the supply barriers to entry and the solid demographics, we hope that this is only the first of many transactions in Orange County," said Eric Staley, Managing Director of Staley Point. "By providing closing assurance on a short timeline, we were able to differentiate ourselves as a buyer."
The property is located at 331 Cliffwood in North Orange County, with easy access to the rest of the county via the 57 freeway. The asset has a clear height of 22 feet, four dock-high positions, and is completely leased for five years.
This is the fourth sale done by Staley Point and Bain Capital Real Estate. It comes on the back of the newly announced acquisition of a 58,000 square-foot industrial property in Santa Fe Springs, as well as the purchasing of Freeway Point, an 83,000 square-foot industrial property, and a land site in the San Fernando Valley.
"This investment represents both our partnership's continued success and our emphasis on investing locally in industrial properties with solid underlying growth fundamentals," said Andrew Terris, Managing Director at Bain Capital Real Estate. "We established North County as an appealing and high-performing submarket, and we look forward to capitalizing on additional prospects in the area that fit with our thematic and value-added investment strategy."
Staley Point Capital and Bain Capital Real Estate have formed a joint venture to reposition and redevelop existing infill industrial sites near dense urban centers, mainly in Southern California.
Staley Point Capital's legal counsel on the deal was Greenberg Traurig, LLP. Pacific Partners advised both the buyer and the seller, while JLL Capital Markets will handle the loan financing.
