Axis Trades 22-Property IOS Portfolio to Realterm
Axis Partners, a real estate investment platform headquartered in Atlanta, in partnership with Sweetwater Holdings, has closed the $111-million sale of an 85-acre portfolio comprised of 22 industrial outdoor storage (IOS) and high flow-through (HFT) facilities located primarily throughout the Sunbelt. The buyer was Realterm.
“This portfolio strengthens our position in markets where Realterm is already a dominant player,” said Ed Brickley, managing director, senior fund manager, Realterm. “We’re building on proven success, deploying capital in logistics corridors where our market intelligence, operational expertise, and established relationships create a distinct competitive advantage.”
Leased to a diverse group of recognized national, regional and local tenants, the properties are concentrated in some of the most dynamic industrial markets in the country, including Atlanta (38%), Texas (31%), Norfolk (6%), Columbus (6%), Los Angeles (5%), Nashville (4%) and Jacksonville (4%). The remainder are situated in smaller Southeast markets.
“This transaction validates our investment thesis and the durability of industrial outdoor storage as a core real-estate asset class,” said Crawford Arnold, founder and partner of Axis. “The sale of this portfolio also confirms Axis’ position among the leading institutional platforms in the sector, and we intend to reinvest aggressively as we scale from here.”
An Eastdil Secured team led by Nick Murphy arranged the sale on behalf of Axis.
