by Katie Sloan February 3, 2022

PHILADELPHIA — Equus Capital Partners has acquired a 5.4 million-square-foot industrial portfolio located across the Sun Belt and East Coast. The properties were purchased from Prologis for $900 million, according to the Philadelphia Business Journal. The 75-property portfolio primarily comprises multi-tenant, infill, shallow-bay assets located across seven major distribution markets in Texas, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina and Virginia. The acquisition was made on behalf of the company’s sponsored value-add fund, Equus Investment Partnership XII L.P. The portfolio was 98 percent leased to 250 tenants at the time of sale, which included e-commerce, logistics providers, manufacturing, business-to-business and business-to-consumer users. Equus made headlines with another large-scale industrial acquisition in October of last year, buying a 7.3 million-square-foot industrial portfolio in Arizona for $1.1 billion. “We remain disciplined in our approach to appropriately scaling our industrial holdings across the U.S. on behalf of our investment partners,” says Kyle Turner, partner and director of investments for the Philadelphia-based firm. “This most recent investment further diversifies our platform holdings in the industrial sector and provides access to dynamic distribution locations poised to benefit from improving industrial fundamentals and sustained population growth,” he continues.

Web-Based Multifamily Valuation Enhances Speed, Builds Better Predictions

by Sarah Daniels February 3, 2022

The future of multifamily valuation requires flexibility and the use of technology to process data faster and more reliably. Meghan Czechowski, managing director and valuation lead for Apprise by Walker & Dunlop, spoke to Finance Insight about why multifamily valuations in particular are well suited to a web-based machine learning approach, resulting in faster appraisals with increased reliability. Finance Insight: How does the Walker & Dunlop Apprise program differ from traditional residential valuation programs? Czechowski: We’re focused on multifamily with our tech-enabled process. Most appraisal reports on the commercial side (multifamily included, that is, five units and up) are completed using a web-based database, and those databases are typically blank slates. When you’re entering sale comparables, rent comparables or other data, most people are starting from scratch and usually using an analyst to record that comparable information that then feeds into a database. The Apprise team of appraisal experts uses our Apprise application, which is a proprietary web-based system. It uses the property record database; therefore, it is not a blank slate. It has over 2.5 million multifamily records flowing into it from a public record aggregator and various industry resources like REIS, RCA and Yardi, using direct integration and …
