“We believe that these assets are positioned in undersupplied markets with strong demographics and robust population and job growth over the last decade. These areas feature solid demand drivers given their regional access, affordable labor costs, and low cost of living,” said Kim Hourihan, Portfolio Manager and CIO, Americas for CBRE Global Investors.
Ethan Khalil, Commercial Acquisitions for CBRE Global Investors, added, “These are high-quality assets in markets that have strong buyer demand for this type of product and high barriers to entry. We believe that these factors, coupled with the sought-after and differentiating climate-control feature that all four facilities offer, will likely continue to drive up pricing.”
