LXP is building up its land bank with the recent acquisition of a 37-acre infill industrial redevelopment site in the South Airport submarket of Phoenix. The property is leased to Phoenix Education Partners (NYSE: PXED) through March 31, 2031. LXP intends to redevelop the site into ~400K-450K SF of industrial facilities upon lease expiration.
T. Wilson Eglin, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of LXP, commented, “Our recently acquired covered land investment is a premier infill industrial redevelopment opportunity that expands LXP’s presence in the Phoenix market, which is benefiting from favorable demographic trends and business investment in advanced manufacturing and data centers. The rental payments of $82 million over the remaining lease term, representing an initial cash yield of 15.7%, is expected to result in an inexpensive land basis that will support attractive development yields at the end of the lease term.”
