DENVER,CO – BKM
Capital Partners, an institutional fund manager with a
niche focus on value-add, multi-tenant light industrial investments, has
acquired Inverness Business Park, a Class A, 215,268 square-foot,
eight-building industrial asset for $20,200,000, reflecting a 57-percent

largest in the Denver metro area. This provides access to a strong base of
potential tenants in various business sectors.”

Inverness Business Park is situated within a 980-acre high image
master plan anchored by major companies such as Boeing and Comcast. The
property fronts Inverness Golf Course and is readily accessible from Interstate
25, the major north-south transportation corridor that runs through the heart
of Denver. The asset is 91-percent occupied by 86 tenants averaging
approximately 2,750 square feet, according to Malliet.
“This acquisition is well-aligned with our ongoing investment
strategy, which is to identify extremely well-located, institutional quality
industrial assets with a value-add opportunity,” says Malliet. “Drawing
upon our in-house management platform and niche expertise in multi-tenant
industrial, we will be able to quickly improve the asset and bringing rents to
market, generating strong yields for investors.”
BKM plans to invest nearly $2 million in upgrades to the asset,
including a complete rebrand to reintroduce the asset to the market, as well as
fresh paint, upgraded landscaping, cosmetic upgrades to the lobby and signage,
and various structural improvements, such as improved roofing, parking
surfaces, and HVAC.

to quickly improve operational efficiencies and maximize the value of this
multi-tenant industrial asset. Moving forward, we are seeking additional
assets in the Denver metro area in order to continue to build value and
