JLL Income Property Trust Acquires Industrial Portfolio in Chicago's O'Hare Submarket

2015-10-13 09:34 ET - News Release

CHICAGO, IL -- (Marketwired) -- 10/13/15

JLL Income Property Trust, an institutionally-managed, non-listed, daily valued perpetual life REIT (NASDAQ: ZIPTAX) (NASDAQ: ZIPTMX) (NASDAQ: ZIPIAX) (NASDAQ: ZIPIMX), today announced it acquired O'Hare Industrial Portfolio, a 7-building industrial portfolio located in close proximity to Chicago's O'Hare International Airport. The 642,000 square foot portfolio is leased to 14 tenants in a diverse mix of industries. The purchase price was approximately $71.5 million.

Chicago is the second largest industrial market in the U.S. at approximately 1.2 billion square feet. The O'Hare submarket is a mature, infill submarket with excellent access to a network of highways, rail, and air transportation. The portfolio is strategically located in DuPage County, a county whose more diversified tax base often provides tenants with lower total occupancy costs.

"This acquisition reflects our strategic approach to grow our industrial allocation through investments in target industrial markets like Chicago," commented Allan Swaringen, President and CEO of JLL Income Property Trust. "With this acquisition, we have completed eight new industrial investments encompassing 3.2 million square feet and totaling more than $255 million since 2013."

The buildings were constructed in the mid-to-late 1980s, which is typical for buildings in this submarket. "With little to no available land, few new buildings have been built in this infill location in the past several years," noted Paul White, Managing Director of Acquisitions.

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.
