CLOSED TRANSACTIONS
Acquisitions & Dispositions

ACQUISITION: Davidson Bogel Real Estate announced the sale of 4700 Singleton Blvd in West Dallas — a 46,000 SF warehouse with significant outdoor storage fully leased to Nucor Rebar, a division of Nucor Corporation (NYSE: NUE). Located near I-30, Loop 12, and Hwy 183, the property offers prime infill access and long-term stability within one of DFW’s tightest industrial submarkets. Congrats to Philip Cherrick and David Guinn on getting this one across the finish line!

ACQUISITION: DBRE announced the investment sales of 9090 Forney Road in Dallas and 10111 Harmon Road in Fort Worth, two stabilized, low-coverage industrial assets located in infill submarkets of the DFW Metroplex. The Forney site spans 2.6 acres with a 4,000 SF building and sub-10% coverage, while Harmon includes a 7,000 SF warehouse on 2 acres in the Alliance area—both ideal for IOS and service users. The deals highlight sustained investor demand for infill, low-coverage industrial properties with strong tenancy, yard space, and long-term stability amid limited new supply in core DFW markets.

ACQUISITION: Open Industrial acquired a 3.12-acre IOS property at 526 Three Sisters Rd in Knightdale, NC, featuring 7,900 SF of warehouse and office space with a functional laydown yard. Located near I-87 and just six miles from the 540 Project interchange, the site offers prime connectivity within the Raleigh/Durham MSA. Zoned I-2 Heavy Industrial, the property was purchased vacant and is available for lease.

ACQUISITION: H.I.G. Realty Partners, an affiliate of H.I.G. Capital, has acquired 20 Industrial Outdoor Storage (IOS) properties so far in 2025, expanding its national platform to 79 sites across 20 states totaling 3.6 million SF and 385 acres at 98% occupancy. Since launching its IOS strategy in 2022, H.I.G. has driven strong NOI growth through re-leasing and benefiting from limited supply and robust tenant demand for infill sites. The firm continues to focus on off-market acquisitions from local owners, positioning its portfolio for sustained cash flow growth amid tightening zoning and development constraints.

ACQUISITION: Realterm acquired 4475 N. 43rd Avenue in Phoenix, a 48,600 SF industrial facility fully leased to a modern logistics operator. The property offers direct rail access, strong highway connectivity, and a flexible layout suited for last-mile delivery users in one of the nation’s busiest industrial corridors.

ACQUISITION: Genesis acquired a 21,000 SF industrial building on 4.8 acres at 173 Amboy Road in Marlboro, NJ for $6.9 million, in an off-market deal brokered by CBRE. The property offers abundant outdoor storage, 22-foot clear heights, and convenient access to Routes 9 and 18, making it ideal for a range of industrial users. CBRE noted the site’s immediate lease availability and its appeal to occupiers seeking Central Jersey access without proximity to the Turnpike or I-287.
