JLL arranges $515M acquisition financing for Artemis Real Estate Partners' national logistics portfolio
NEW YORK CITY, Dec. 8, 2025 – JLL’s Capital Markets group announced today that it has arranged a $515 million acquisition financing for the Artemis National Logistics Portfolio, a 25-property industrial portfolio totaling 8.7 million square feet.
JLL represented the borrower, an affiliate of Artemis Real Estate Partners, to secure a five-year balance sheet loan through Wells Fargo, which acted as the sole lead arranger, sole bookrunner and administrative agent for the transaction.
The portfolio spans top U.S. logistics markets, including Central Florida, Central Pennsylvania, Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, Greenville, Northern New Jersey and Chicago. Located in strategic infill positions within top last-mile submarkets, the properties offer immediate proximity to dense population centers and major transportation corridors.
The assets offer highly functional logistics designs, featuring average clear heights above 30 feet, 2003 vintage and limited office buildouts comprising 4.2% of total square footage. Property sizes range from 84,000 square feet to 892,000 square feet, with an average suite size of 264,000 square feet.
Currently more than 95% leased, the portfolio is leased to 25 tenants spanning a variety of industries including e-commerce, consumer goods, food and beverage distribution, logistics services, building materials and government agencies.
The JLL Debt Advisory team was led by Capital Markets President Kevin MacKenzie, Senior Managing Director Steven Klein and Director Christopher Pratt.
"Artemis' proven sponsorship and the portfolio's strong fundamentals drove exceptional execution on this significant financing," said MacKenzie. "The combination of investment-grade tenancy and embedded value creation opportunities allowed us to capitalize on the robust lending environment and structure competitive terms."
“The success of this financing underscores the strength of Artemis Real Estate Partner’s ability to execute at scale,” said Klein. “Geographic diversity, mark-to-market opportunity and strong tenant roster led to a successful transaction for all parties involved.”
