Logistics industry

A new commercial-mortgage loan for seven facilities operated by the self-storage REIT is the largest of 41 loans in the conduit deal.

The bond issuance out of Fortress' CF Hippolyta master trust will finance 19 newly constructed or planned Amazon distribution and logistics facilities in 15 states.

The 18 centers operated by industrial real estate management firm LBA Logistics are nearly all warehouse/distribution types, with no flex-industrial space pooled into the collateral mix.

The transaction finances the loan portion of a $989.5 million acquisition of warehouse and distribution properties located in nine states.

The first-time transaction under Fortress Investment Group's new shelf will be backed by long-term leases on 11 Amazon fulfillment and last-mile distribution centers – three of which remain under construction.

KKR is tapping the commercial mortgage securities market to finance a new loan secured by a portfolio of 71 industrial “last-mile” logistics properties owned by the investment firm in seven states.

Consumers’ desire to shop online is creating huge demand for distribution centers and forcing property owners to think creatively about redeveloping vacant retail space. Meanwhile, hundreds of billions of dollars will be spent rebuilding areas hard hit by hurricanes and wildfires.
