CHICAGO, April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- JLL Income Property Trust, an institutionally managed, daily NAV REIT (NASDAQ: ZIPTAX; ZIPTMX; ZIPIAX; ZIPIMX; ZIPIBX; ZIPSAX; ZIPZAX; ZIPDBX) with approximately $6.8 billion in portfolio equity and debt investments, announced the acquisition of Whitestown Distribution Center III, a Class A industrial facility located in the Northwest submarket of Indianapolis in Whitestown, IN for a purchase price of approximately $60 million.
The property is a Class A industrial building totaling approximately 605,000 square feet and is 100% leased to a single tenant with a 7-year remaining lease term featuring 2.5% annual escalations. The facility was newly developed in 2023 with modern amenities such as LED lighting, ESFR sprinklers, 140'-200' truck courts, full dock packages including hydraulic levelers, and 36' clear heights. Indianapolis strategically serves as one of the country's major industrial markets from its geographic location in the center of the U.S., with a compelling combination of extensive transportation systems, a deep labor pool, and business friendly governments. The region is home to the second largest FedEx hub nationwide, as well as other high-credit distribution tenants like Amazon, Home Depot, DHL, and Coca-Cola.
"Whitestown III is an attractive addition to our industrial portfolio," said Allan Swaringen, President and CEO of JLL Income Property Trust. "This sector has been a performance driver for our core fund, as industrial fundamentals have remained stable through the past three years of valuation corrections, and our research team forecasts steady rent growth for the warehouse sector over the next two to four years. With the ability to reach more than 80% of the U.S. population within a day, the Indianapolis region is a great example of a target market as a central distribution hub with access to interstate transportation systems, and this acquisition fits our ideal profile for a high-quality industrial property in a strategic location."
JLL Income Property Trust's allocation to industrial real estate remains strong with this acquisition. As of March 31, 2026, industrial investments comprise the largest percentage of the total $6.8 billion portfolio at 38%, with $2.4 billion in assets across 64 industrial properties.
