Hines Global Income Trust Acquires Miramar Activity Business Center in San Diego

This deal represents its third industrial acquisition in California within the last year

(SAN DIEGO) – Hines, the international real estate firm, is pleased to announce that Hines Global Income Trust, Inc. (“Hines Global”) has acquired Miramar Activity Business Center, which consists of five industrial flex buildings in the Miramar submarket of San Diego.

The 161,000-square-foot complex is situated 1 mile from the I-15 in Central San Diego. This location is advantageous for tenants who need to be well-positioned geographically in the market since it provides direct access to the majority of the city’s population within 30 minutes. Demand for industrial and logistics real estate has continued to grow within this market in recent years, while availability has simultaneously diminished. Additionally, recent capital improvements have given the asset a competitive advantage in retaining tenants.

“San Diego is proving to be an important and growing market for industrial tenants,” said Eric Hepfer, managing director in the Hines San Diego Office. “We are excited to be closing another industrial acquisition in the San Diego market. Miramar Activity Business Center is a best-in-class business park in one of San Diego’s most robust submarkets.”

Omar Thowfeek, managing director, investments of Hines Global, added “The area’s sizable labor pool for flex and distribution-focused warehouse space, combined with the prime location, make Miramar Activity Business Center a strong long-term investment and solid addition to the existing Hines Global portfolio.”

Hines Global is diversified by geography and real estate asset class, with a focus on strategic sectors and markets. Its $2.3 billion portfolio is 94% leased. With this acquisition, the portfolio holds 16 industrial assets, which make up half its overall value. Its industrial allocation spans the United States, Netherlands, United Kingdom, Poland, Germany and Spain.

Hines has been investing and developing in the industrial real estate sector since 1957 with more than 330 projects in 13 countries. Globally, the firm has acquired 42 million square feet of space and developed 47 million square feet (with 10.9 million square feet of projects currently in design or under development) in the industrial sector.
