Increased investor interest in Houston’s Energy Corridor prompts sale of office asset

HOUSTON, February 18, 2019 – JLL Capital Markets experts announced today the successful sale of 15810 Park Ten Place, an 85,050-square-foot Class B office property located in Houston’s renowned Energy Corridor.

JLL Capital Markets’ Kevin McConn, Rudy Hubbard and Rick Goings led the sales efforts on behalf of the seller, a joint venture between Dallas-based Chief Partners and the Houston office of Stream Realty Partners. The new owner is a joint venture between Belvoir Real Estate Group and Mission Companies.

“We’ve seen a significant uptick in investor interest over the past several quarters with the recent stabilization of energy prices rejuvenating office product in the Energy Corridor,” said McConn. “The asset’s accessibility and visibility paired with market activity provided a great opportunity for both the buyer and seller. We’re proud to play a role in securing this transition.”

“We are thrilled to execute another successful Houston office investment. The investment represented a unique opportunity to buy an asset at an attractive basis in the highly sought-after Energy Corridor submarket,” said Mathew Volz with Stream Realty Partners. “To deliver the results we achieved, throughout one of the worst office markets in Houston in decades, is a true testament to the strength of the Stream platform, which combines extensive market research and an experienced leasing background to identify investment opportunities within the market. We are very excited about the future of the Houston office market and there will be many more of these to come.”

“As a Texas-based commercial real estate firm, we’re delighted to represent another example of Houston’s ongoing office market recovery, especially in the Energy Corridor,” added Matthew Goldsby, Managing Director of Belvoir. “We feel the timing of this acquisition was very opportunistic, given the current stage in the office market’s recovery cycle. Additionally, we are very excited about our new joint venture with the Mission Companies, and feel that will be a fruitful partnership for years to come.”
