HOUSTON-So far this year, Boxer Property has acquired 10 office buildings totaling more than 2.3 million square feet. The local company has four more buildings totaling 550,000 square feet under contract and plans to search out at least a couple more acquisitions by year end.

“This is our most active year for acquisitions by far,” says David Kayle, a member of the firm’s acquisitions team. “This is the most square feet we’ve ever acquired in one year. We’re buying bigger buildings and taking advantage of distress in the market. It’s a great opportunity.”

In total, Boxer Property owns and operates over 12 million square feet of commercial real estate across the US. Andre Pereira, who shares the firm’s acquisitions responsibilities with David Kayle, tells GlobeSt.com the company has partnered with an institutional investor to make the buys, all of which have closed on an all-cash basis. Most of the company’s deals have closed within 45 days.
