The portfolio includes 13 properties in metro Dallas, four in Chicago, and one each in Indianapolis and Cincinnati, located in infill submarkets including Plano, Valwood, GSW, O’Hare, Park 100, and Fairfield/Westchester. The assets are 93% leased to 48 tenants and have a weighted average lease term of approximately three years, Dalfen said.

Dalfen said the deal was completed below replacement cost, “highlighting continued pricing dislocation in segments of the logistics real estate market.”

Dalfen President and CEO Sean Dalfen said the deal gives his company “immediate scale in high-conviction infill submarkets where demand remains durable and leasing spreads continue to reprice.”

“We continue to see opportunities to acquire well-located logistics assets at pricing that does not reflect replacement cost or forward rent potential,” he added in a statement.

The industrial portfolio serves tenants including Cummins Inc., Techcess Solutions, WM Coffman Resources, and Legacy Foods Manufacturing, with proximity to major distribution nodes used by companies including Target, FedEx Freight, and Amazon, Dalfen noted.

With the acquisition, Dalfen said it now owns and operates around 8.8 million square feet across the four markets.

Dalfen Industrial is a leader in last-mile industrial real estate, and says it is “one of the largest privately held industrial firms in the United States.” The company specializes in strategically located infill warehouses and distribution centers, with a total portfolio exceeding 60 million square feet. 

Follows $293M acquisition in January 2025

In January 2025, Dalfen and New York-based Goldman Sachs Alternatives acquired a 21-building portfolio of infill logistics properties in several states for $293 million. The two companies had worked together since 2020, focusing on last-mile industrial properties and distribution centers.
