Triten Buys 535 KSF Houston Industrial Portfolio

Triten Real Estate Partners has acquired a three-building industrial portfolio totaling 534,541 square feet in Houston’s submarkets of West Houston and Port of Houston. Nationwide Mutual Insurance Co. provided an undisclosed amount in acquisition financing, with the loan maturing in 2028, according to Harris County public records.

Lee & Associates worked on behalf of the seller of the West Houston property, while JLL brokered the deal for the other two industrial buildings.

Kingsland 4 is the largest asset in the portfolio, located at 31067 Kingsland Blvd. in Brookshire, Texas. It is a 200,680-square-foot rear-load distribution facility that is fully occupied by third-party logistics company Pods and Armstrong SCS. The Class A property is on approximately 35 acres and changed hands from a private seller, according to CommercialEdge.

Houston still a hotspot for investment activity

Houston recorded nearly $2.3 billion in industrial sales volume in 2023, a recent CommercialEdge report shows. The metro was outperformed only by Dallas-Fort Worth across Southern markets, while nationally its deals volume secured the seventh place, with assets changing hands at an average sale price of $122 per square foot, below the national figure of $129.

Recent transactions of large assets included Sealy & Co.’s purchase of a 500,840-square-foot industrial facility. Pagewood sold the property—Great 290 Distribution Center, a Class A warehouse that came online in 2023 and is fully occupied by a single tenant.

One of the biggest deals in Houston last year was Dalfen Industrial’s acquisition of Fairbanks Logistics Park. The company picked up the 1 million-square-foot industrial campus from seller Investment & Development Ventures, with Affinius Capital providing a $90.6 million acquisition loan.
