JLL Income Property Trust Acquires Industrial Portfolio in Greater Los Angeles Submarket

July 18, 2016 — Chicago

JLL Income Property Trust, an institutionally-managed, non-listed, daily valued perpetual life REIT (NASDAQ: ZIPTAX ZIPTMX ZIPIAX ZIPIMX), today announced the acquisition of Valencia Industrial Portfolio, a five-building, multi-tenant warehouse portfolio located in the Greater Los Angeles submarket, the largest industrial market in the United States. The portfolio is 100 percent leased to a diverse roster of eight different national and local tenants. The purchase price was approximately $64.5 million with an estimated capitalization rate based upon purchase price of 4.9 percent.

Los Angeles is not only the largest industrial market in the U.S., with roughly 1.6 billion square feet, but it also is the most sought-after market by institutional investors. With an overall market vacancy rate of less than 2 percent (its lowest level in fifteen years), and new construction pipelines delivering less than 1 percent of existing stock, the industrial property market fundamentals of Greater Los Angeles are some of the strongest across all property types and markets in the country. This market appeals to users who desire to be close to the largest shipping port in the U.S. and those who are serving the nation’s second-largest population center. The Los Angeles market is largely built-out, with limited undeveloped land available for warehouse development and intense competition from other uses for redevelopment opportunities.

“Acquiring high quality, well-located warehouses in select, primary markets with high barriers to entry, like the Greater Los Angeles market, is a core component of our investment strategy,” noted Allan Swaringen, CEO and President of JLL Income Property Trust. “This portfolio’s prime infill location in close proximity to Interstate 5 should allow us to attract and retain tenants and capture this market’s strong rent growth potential.” Swaringen further noted, “LaSalle’s Research and Strategy team identified this as one of its proprietary industrial ‘Target Markets’ and projects strong annual rent growth for the next three years on in-place rents estimated to be already 10 percent below current market rents. We see an upside in the two years of weighted average lease term of the existing tenants. This marks our third industrial investment closed this year, and twenty-third property acquired in the warehouse sector over the last three years, growing our industrial allocation to over $430 million and 25 percent of our overall portfolio.”

JLL Income Property Trust is a non-listed, daily valued perpetual life real estate investment trust (REIT) that gives investors access to a growing portfolio of commercial real estate investments selected by an institutional investment management team and sponsored by one of the world’s leading real estate services firms.
