Los Angeles-based Rexford Industrial, the nation’s largest pure-play U.S.-focused industrial REIT, completed $2.4 billion of acquisitions last year. The purchases, made through off-market and lightly marketed transactions, were funded with a combination of cash on hand and proceeds from forward equity settlements. In the third quarter of 2022, Rexford Industrial completed seven acquisitions totaling some $339 million.
Howard Schwimmer and Michael Frankel, co-CEOs of the company, said in a prepared statement the company is well-positioned for 2023, pointing to an extensive pipeline of prospective NOI growth driven by significant mark-to-market in-place leases, value-add repositioning and redevelopment projects, plus $400 million of additional accretive investments under contract or accepted offers.
