**Axis Partners Sells 22-Property IOS Portfolio to Realterm for $111 Million**
Axis Partners, a real estate investment platform based in Atlanta, has completed the $111 million sale of an 85-acre industrial portfolio in partnership with Sweetwater Holdings. The portfolio includes 22 industrial outdoor storage (IOS) and high flow-through (HFT) facilities located primarily across the Sunbelt region. The buyer in the transaction was Realterm, a global logistics real estate operator.
“This portfolio strengthens our position in markets where Realterm is already a dominant player,” said Ed Brickley, Managing Director and Senior Fund Manager at Realterm. “We’re building on proven success, deploying capital in logistics corridors where our market intelligence, operational expertise, and established relationships create a distinct competitive advantage.”
The properties are currently leased to a diverse mix of national, regional, and local tenants. Key market concentrations include Atlanta (38%), Texas (31%), Norfolk (6%), Columbus (6%), Los Angeles (5%), Nashville (4%), and Jacksonville (4%), with additional sites located in smaller Southeastern U.S. markets.
Crawford Arnold, Founder and Partner at Axis, expressed confidence in the broader strategy, stating, “This transaction validates our investment thesis and the durability of industrial outdoor storage as a core real-estate asset class. The sale of this portfolio also confirms Axis’ position among the leading institutional platforms in the sector, and we intend to reinvest aggressively as we scale from here.”
The sale was arranged by a team from Eastdil Secured, led by Nick Murphy.
