The acquisition represents LPC’s second transaction in a partnership with Oaktree that has generated $102 million in metro Phoenix deal activity in a 60-day timeframe.

 These deals include the $58 million Biltmore Commerce Center acquisition and the $42.3 million, mid-February disposition of Camelback Square, a 174,917-square-foot, Class A office asset in Old Town Scottsdale.

 It also increases LPC’s Phoenix investment activity to more than $165 million in the last 60 days.

“Phoenix has the lifestyle, the labor and the commercial real estate to generate upside value, drive demand and respond to tenant needs at almost any point of the real estate cycle,” said Lincoln Property Company’s Executive Vice President David Krumwiede, who directed the Biltmore Commerce Center investment purchase.

“It’s an exciting dynamic to work in, particularly when you have a team that can see potential at any given point in the cycle, and use their investment, development and management skills to build on that potential. It leads to a lot of opportunity in many venues, including this latest, great portfolio addition.”
