HOUSTON-Brookfield Asset Management has hawked a 20-building, 655,261-sf flex industrial portfolio to Insite Commercial Real Estate. The Toronto-based seller, bidding goodbye to the metro, inherited the asset last fall in a $177-million, 3.2-million-sf acquisition of US properties.
Industry sources believe the Brookfield Real Estate Opportunity Fund collected $50 p0er sf to $70 per sf for the portfolio based on sales of similar properties. The portfolio consists of the 296,400-sf Commerce Center at 9000 Southwest Freeway; 88,314-sf Commerce Park North at 15621 and 15631 at Blue Ash Dr.; 151,898-sf Plaza Southwest Business Park at 7302 and 7350 Harwin St., 5601 and 5750 Bintliff Rd., and 5755 Bonhomme; 71,647-sf Technipark Ten Service Center at 16115 and 16133 Park Row; and 47,702-sf Westchase Park at 3120-30 Rogerdale Rd.
