Matthews™ Completed $17.27 Multi-State Sale-Leaseback IOS and Retail Portfolio

UNITED STATES— Matthews™, a commercial real estate investment services and technology firm, facilitated the $17,275,000 sale-leaseback of a seven-property industrial portfolio located across several Sunbelt States. Matthews™ Vice President Aria Pournazarian, Senior Associate Thiago Delia, and Associates Brody Hess and Adam Rose represented the seller in the transaction. The portfolio was brought to market as part of a broader balance-sheet optimization initiative for a nationally recognized building materials & lumber distribution company. The transaction enabled the company to monetize company-owned real estate while maintaining long-term operational control of mission-critical facilities. Due to the complexity of the transaction and the need for institutional-level execution, the opportunity was not widely marketed to the open market. Matthews™ conducted a highly targeted outreach that generated multiple offers within a brief two-week engagement window for select investment groups. The Matthews™ agents ultimately sourced and executed the transaction with a well-capitalized investment group whose portfolio strategy and sector knowledge aligned closely with the sale-leaseback structure. Leveraging the competitive environment, Matthews™ secured pricing approximately 20% above the seller’s initial expectations while meeting the company’s critical timing requirements. “From day one, our focus was on protecting the client’s priorities while minimizing execution risk,” Pournazarian said. “Our platform helped build client conviction, as they were evaluating sale-leasebacks for the first time, and supported a clear path to pricing, timing, and certainty of execution.” For more information, please contact Aria Pournazarian, Thiago Delia, Brody Hess, and Adam Rose or visit www.matthews.com.

David Harrington Discusses the 2026 CRE Recovery with GlobeSt

In a recent article with GlobeSt titled, “CRE Players Will Get the 2025 Recovery in 2026,” Matthews™ President David Harrington discusses how 2026 is set to bring a recovery that will aid investor sentiment. Harrington covered how he expects improvements in deal volume and access to capital in 2026. “We are finding ourselves in a bit more of a stable place,” says Harrington. “We anticipate the transactional market to move, as well as the operational market, in tandem to improve.” 2026 is expected to bring the activity that CRE players wanted to see in 2025. “If you believe in real estate cycles, it would appear that all of the stars are aligned for us to see significant improvement in 2026. This year will be the rebound year that we anticipated for 2025,” says Harrington. “I don’t anticipate that crazy gut shot to the market. It’s a recovery that we can build upon.” Harrington also expressed that he forecasts the capital environment to bring renewed activity to CRE investments. The drop in short-term interest rates, together with several sources of capital, are increasing allocation targets for 2026. “Pick your bucket,” says Harrington. “Whether it’s the agencies or life companies, banks, credit unions or CMBS, they are all positioning for a bigger year and a more active year.” Specifically, agencies will provide more liquidity options for multifamily. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are both increasing their multifamily allocations, increasing opportunities for investors. Despite the positive trends, Harrington shared that investors should remain conservative in their investment practices. “Be very thoughtful in your underwriting and be very specific on analyzing the marketplaces you’re in,” says Harrington. Each market across the country is set to perform differently. “Some markets have experienced growth and some have been the victim of excitement,” says Harrington. “If you have enough perspective and your investment horizon is long enough, pretty much anything could work out.” The new cycle in 2026 will lay the foundation for the long-term outlook. “It’s going to be heaven in 2027,” Harrington says. “We just keep marching forward until then.” Click here to read the full article and gain more insights from David Harrington on the expected outlook for 2026.

Matthews™ Completes Off-Market Sale of GI Alliance in Texas

SAN ANTONIO, TX— Matthews™, a commercial real estate investment services and technology firm, completed the sale of GI Alliance, located at 855 Proton Road in San Antonio, Texas. Matthews™ Senior Vice Presidents & Senior Directors Rahul Chhajed, Michael Moreno, and Vice President & Director Tyler Swade represented the seller in the transaction. “We are happy to announce the closing of a single-tenant ASC directly adjacent to the Methodist Hospital Stone Oak,” Chhajed said. “The 12,719-square-foot property is operated by Gastroenterology Consultants of San Antonio, an affiliate of GI Alliance, one of the leading independent gastroenterology practice management companies in the country.” Executed as a direct, off-market transaction between two institutional healthcare groups, the Matthews™ agents leveraged their deep industry relationships to bypass a traditional bidding process. The seller, a repeat client of the firm, was motivated by the buyer’s high probability of execution and a competitive offer. Conversely, the buyer sought to acquire institutional-quality real estate with a high-caliber operator in a premier Texas market. By aligning these two active market participants, the Matthews™ agents ensured a seamless execution from start to close. “This is a property with great real estate fundamentals, and both the seller and buyer are very active players in the healthcare space, so we knew that both parties would work diligently to ensure a successful close,” Moreno said.

Matthews™ Facilitates Second-Highest Sale of a 7-Eleven in Tampa

TAMPA, FL— Matthews™, a commercial real estate investment services and technology firm, completed the sale of a 7-Eleven with fuel service located at 16161 Spring Hill Dr in Brooksville, Florida. Matthews™ Executive Vice President & Managing Director Chad Kurz, Vice President Kevin Puder, and Associate Michael Tamir represented the seller in the transaction, which marked the second-highest sale price for a 7-Eleven sold in Tampa in 2025. Built in 2021, the 3,500-square-foot property is secured by a corporate-guaranteed absolute NNN lease with approximately 10 years of term remaining at the time of sale. The seller, a private investor, brought the asset to market to reposition out of fuel-related operations and into a property better aligned with long-term investment objectives through a 1031 exchange. Matthews™ generated multiple competitive offers and identified the buyer within 48 hours, going under contract in four days. The buyer pursued the acquisition as a depreciation-driven investment and was motivated by a year-end tax timeline, requiring a tightly coordinated process among all parties. The Matthews™ agents worked through the holiday period to maintain due diligence and secure time-sensitive tenant items, including the estoppel, ROFR, and SNDA, ultimately closing the transaction in 48 days from listing to close. “From the start, our priority was to guide every step of the process with the same transparency and urgency we would expect for ourselves,” Tamir said. “By staying focused on the specific needs of both the buyer and seller, we were able to deliver a result that met the buyer’s strict year-end tax requirements and allowed the seller to move successfully into an up-leg that better fits his long-term investment objectives.” For more information, please contact Chad Kurz, Kevin Puder, and Michael Tamir or visit www.matthews.com.
