NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
RREEF Property Trust, Inc. (ZRPTAX, ZRPTBX) today announced the acquisition of Loudoun Gateway I, an institutional-quality Class-A, 102,015 square-foot office building in Sterling, VA, for $21.95 million. This is RREEF Property Trust’s first acquisition in the Washington, DC metropolitan area and increases the fund’s geographic diversification.
The fully-leased property is a highly functional asset that offers excellent access to the greater Washington, DC metropolitan area via various access points, along with several attractive amenities. Loudoun Gateway I is located three miles north of Washington Dulles International Airport at the intersection of Route 28 and Old Ox Road (Route 606) and will be accessible via mass transit in 2020 when the Phase II extension of the Silver Line will extend the Metrorail 11.5 miles beyond Dulles and into Loudoun County. The property is located less than two miles away from the proposed station.
“Loudoun Gateway I is a high quality building located in a growing submarket of Washington, DC, which is driven by economic diversity, the depth of its highly-educated labor pool and the consistent ability of many Federal agencies to absorb space in this area,” said Todd Henderson, Chairman of the Board of RREEF Property Trust and Head of Real Estate, Americas, at Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management. “Furthermore, the property provides investors with the potential for an attractive income return given the purchase price and long-term lease in place.”
