- Whether a single buyer purchases all four parks or the portfolio is broken into individual transactions.

- The manager uses Fund I realizations and demonstrated exit values to support fundraising, deployments and investor confidence for its second logistics fund.
- Major tenants may be approached for lease extensions, renewals or expansion discussions to improve sale underwriting.
