Jones Lang LaSalle Income Property Trust Acquires Three-Building Distribution Center in Seattle

February 11, 2014 — Chicago

Jones Lang LaSalle Income Property Trust, Inc., an institutionally managed, non-listed, daily valued perpetual life REIT, today announced it acquired South Seattle Distribution Center, a three-building industrial portfolio totaling approximately 323,000 square feet located in the downtown South Seattle submarket. South Seattle Distribution Center is 100 percent leased to three high-quality tenants, including the City of Seattle, and boasts a weighted average remaining lease term of nearly eight years. The total purchase price was approximately $38 million with an estimated capitalization rate based on purchase price of approximately 5.2 percent.

Due to a strong and diverse local economy, a growing population, and significant constraints on developable land, Seattle is one of the nation’s most desirable industrial markets. The South Seattle submarket’s proximity to the downtown area and Port of Seattle make it one of the highest barrier-to-entry markets and features one of the lowest industrial vacancy rates in the country. This property’s premier location along First Avenue and Spokane Street affords excellent accessibility to major interstate highways, railways and Seattle’s world-class seaport.

“This acquisition enhances the geographic diversification and growth opportunities within our portfolio,” commented Allan Swaringen, President and CEO of Jones Lang LaSalle Income Property Trust. “The limited availability of land in this unique location and this investment’s long-term leases with annual rent escalations should provide stable income and the opportunity to increase stockholder value over the long term.”


Jones Lang LaSalle 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.
