HFF announces $4.3 million sale-leaseback of single-tenant industrial facility near Charlotte, NC

Tracey Goo

CHARLOTTE, NC –– HFF announces the $4.3 million sale-leaseback of a 110,000-square-foot industrial facility that is triple net leased to Keywell Metals in the suburban Charlotte community of Matthews, North Carolina. 

Maxx Carney

The HFF team represented the seller, Prophet Equity, a Southlake, Texas-based private equity firm that acquired Keywell Metals in 2014.  AIC Ventures purchased the asset. 

The facility is the mission-critical processing facility and headquarters for Keywell Metals, a metalworks company that is a leading supplier of recycled titanium, high-temperature alloys and stainless steel. 

Situated on 7.45 acres at 1035 Commercial Drive, the facility is in Matthews, one of Charlotte's most densely populated and well-established residential suburbs. 

The property is adjacent to a CSX rail line and has immediate access to Interstate 485, a major loop encircling Charlotte, and U.S. Route 74, a main artery connecting Ashville, Charlotte and Wilmington. 

Kenny Cutler

Additionally, it is 22 miles from Charlotte Douglas International Airport and 7.2 miles from Charlotte-Monroe Executive Airport.

The HFF investment advisory team representing the seller was led by directors Tracey Goo and Maxx Carney, associate Mike Massardo and real estate analyst Kenny Cutler, along with senior managing director Christopher Norvell.

“The Matthews facility is a very strategic location for Keywell, and it is critical for their business operations that they remain at the property in a long-term lease with renewal options,” Goo said. 

Chris Norvell

“We anticipate we will continue to see more and more sale-leaseback transactions nationally, as corporate owner/users of well-located facilities seek to take advantage of investors’ strong appetite for industrial product.”

“The Matthews facility is a key part of the Keywell strategy for growth and delivery of value to our customers,” said David Rex, managing director and general counsel for Prophet Equity. 

“With HFF’s deep expertise and business-focused guidance, Keywell was able to successfully execute a very complicated sale-leaseback transaction on market-based terms.  We couldn’t be more pleased.”

Dawn Wheatland

CHICAGO, IL – Proper Title, LLC, the Palatine, Ill.-based title insurance agency serving the residential and commercial real estate industries announced it has promoted Dawn Wheatland to account executive from sales coordinator and hired Stacey Gore as an account executive.

Stacey Gore

 “Dawn and Stacey are industry veterans that exude enthusiasm and attention to detail. They truly support our goal of excellent customer service as our firm continues its rapid growth.”

David Zawadzki

 Wheatland moves up to her role as account executive after joining Proper Title’s Oak Brook office last year as a sales coordinator. Her past experience as a real estate broker and an investor flipping houses lends to her strong pulse on the local real estate market.

Previously, she spent nearly two decades working in sales and fundraising, including co-chairing a local non-for-profit, No Frills Fun Run that has raised more than $225,000 over the past six years.

Kim O'Donnell

Gore joins Proper Title after a 10-year tenure as a real estate broker focusing on Chicago’s Gold Coast and surrounding neighborhoods. As an account executive, she will focus on growing the firm’s business in Chicago’s Loop and North Side. Gore has a bachelor’s degree from the University of Kansas and a background in high net worth management.

“We’ve seen firsthand Stacey’s commitment to guiding her clients through every step of the buying, selling or leasing process, which is exactly the kind of customer care we provide at closings,” said Zawadzki.

 “Bringing someone on board with Stacey’s level of knowledge of Chicago’s luxury housing market will ensure we maintain our excellent customer service as our closing volume increases.”
