CHICAGO, IL – JLL Capital Markets has closed the sale of a four-property, Class A medical office portfolio totaling 111,827 square feet in Milwaukee and Green Bay, Wisconsin. The price was not disclosed.

JLL marketed the properties on behalf of the seller, Stage Equity Partners, a leading private owner of medical office buildings, headquartered in Chicago.

The portfolio was acquired by Big Sky Medical via a competitive process that yielded extremely strong interest from a range of institutional investors.

The JLL Healthcare Capital Markets team representing the seller was led by Senior Managing Directors Evan Kovac and Mindy Berman, Managing Director Tim Joyce, Director Matt DiCesare and Vice President Trent Jemmett. Local support was provided by Senior Managing Director Jamie Fink.

“We acquired the properties over a period of three years, with the notion that the aggregation would ultimately set up for a portfolio sale” said Brian Howard, President of Stage Equity Partners.

 “Two of the properties required additional lease up as well as long-term building upgrades. Once we completed the work, we determined it was the right time to evaluate an exit.

 "The JLL team did a phenomenal job running a process and overseeing the sale. Big Sky is acquiring a terrific portfolio with a great tenant mix.”

 Matt DiCesare


The portfolio is 98% leased overall, with 85% of the tenancy with market-leading, investment grade-rated hospitals, including Children’s Wisconsin, Hospital Sisters Health System, Ascension and Advocate Aurora Health Care. 






The medical office portfolio consists of:

  • 4655 N. Port Washington Rd., Glendale
  • 8375 South Howell Ave., Oak Creek
  • 8800 Washington Ave., Mt. Pleasant
  • 1727 Shawano Ave., Green Bay

 “We’re very happy to add these assets to our growing portfolio and thankful to JLL and Stage Equity Partners for facilitating a smooth transaction,” Jason Signor, Managing Partner at Big Sky.

“This is our second successful purchase from Stage Equity Partners, and we’re happy that Big Sky and the tenants in the buildings will benefit from their continued management of the properties. We hope to have opportunities to work with Brian and his team again.”

Three of the four properties are in suburban Milwaukee, the largest city in Wisconsin and ranking as the 39th largest MSA in the country. 

Milwaukee is convenient to Chicago and boasts massive public and private investment in infrastructure, a vibrant and economically diverse employment base and a rich historical culture.
