Cushman & Wakefield (NYSE: CWK) announced that the commercial real estate services firm has arranged the sale of the North Carolina Interstate 40/Interstate 85 Industrial Portfolio, a collection of 22 buildings located in the greater Charlotte and Triad regions. The final sale price was $86.6 million.

Cushman & Wakefield’s Nolan Ashton, Rob Cochran and Bill Harrison represented the seller in the transaction. Tom Sullivan, Richard Henry and Ross Fishman of Cushman & Wakefield also secured the buyer’s financing, and the firm has been retained to handle leasing efforts for the portfolio, which will be led by Bobby Finch. The portfolio was acquired by SVN Parsons Commercial Group and their partnership team that included John Parsons, Victor Galvani, Andrew Sacher and Steffen Panzone.

“This portfolio spans two regions in North Carolina and provides immediate scale and upside,” said Ashton, Director at Cushman & Wakefield. “The buyer has an opportunity to establish an immediate presence in the state with a large footprint of well-maintained, functional industrial buildings in industrial corridors along major interstates.”

“This was an opportunity to add critical mass to our industrial portfolio in a region we truly believe is poised for continued growth,” added John Parsons, President of Parsons Commercial Group. “We’d like to thank Cushman & Wakefield and previous ownership for working in concert with us to get this transaction closed. This is an exciting acquisition for our company, and we look forward to continuing to expand our footprint in the Southeast.”

The portfolio offering totals 1,551,486 square feet and was 98% leased at the time of sale to a strong tenant roster.
