Dallas (June 5, 2012) – Adler Realty Investments, Inc. (Adler) has partnered with LLJ Ventures to acquire the Four Forest Office Tower in Dallas, Texas. The 400,000 sq. ft. building was acquired for $23 million from Younan Properties. The project is currently 50 percent occupied, and Adler plans to renovate the common areas, upgrade the building systems, and aggressively market the remaining available space for lease.
The building is located at 12222 Merit Drive and is strategically located off of the Central Expressway, south of the recently improved Lyndon B Johnson Freeway (LBJ) interchange. Situated on a 4.39 acre site, the project is improved with an attached six story parking structure, and amenities including a restaurant, fitness center, and a scenic park setting.
“We have been very successful in acquiring value-added properties such as this and executing our business plans, resulting in higher values and above market returns for our investors,” said Michael Adler, president of Adler. “Chris Engel, our director of acquisitions, is aggressively looking throughout the western United States for other value-add opportunities.”
