The HFF investment sales team representing the seller was
led by senior managing director Randy Baird, managing director Jud
Clements, director Robby Rieke and real estate analyst Justin
Kundrak.
The buyer, Red Tail Acquisitions (RTA), is a value and
core-plus investor that seeks office, industrial and retail properties that
normally have leasing or construction issues.
Over the last 25
years, the group has purchased more than 10 million square feet of commercial
property in the western United States.
The acquisitions team was led by Sean Miller,
executive vice president. Ryan Rubenkoenig,
executive vice president, also contributed to the acquisition.
“This acquisition not only represents an exciting
opportunity for Red Tail Acquisitions to expand its DFW holdings, but is also a
prime example of the types of investments we hope to make throughout Texas,”
Miller said. “RTA would like to thank
AEW and HFF, who were great transaction partners.”
