In a landmark move that underscores the enduring appeal of the last-mile logistics sector, Faropoint has finalized a minority stake acquisition with Invesco Real Estate, a $91.1 billion global real estate powerhouse. The transaction, orchestrated by Invesco’s Platform Investments division, represents validation of Faropoint’s vertically-integrated technology-driven model in navigating fragmented industrial real estate markets.
Operational Scale Meets Market Insight
Since its founding in 2018, Faropoint has emerged as one of America’s most prolific small-bay warehouse acquirers, amassing over 400 properties totaling 20 million square feet across high-growth corridors. What distinguishes the firm is its proprietary sourcing intelligence—its platform processes $5-7 billion in quarterly deal flow, granting unparalleled visibility into market dynamics and emerging opportunities. This data advantage has proven instrumental in executing acquisitions like the recent dual industrial park purchase in North Bergen County, New Jersey for $144.5 million.
Why This Partnership Matters
The collaboration reflects broader industry recognition of last-mile real estate’s fundamental strength. Despite macroeconomic headwinds, the sector maintains resilience through structural advantages: minimal vacancy rates and constrained new supply. Bert Crouch, Head of North America at Invesco Real Estate, framed the investment as part of a deliberate vertical integration strategy targeting high-conviction subsectors where technology can unlock inefficiencies across dispersed markets.
Adir Levitas, CEO and Founder of Faropoint, emphasized the expansion potential: “This partnership amplifies our operational reach and validates our market-driven approach.” Ohad Porat, CIO at Faropoint, added that the collaboration builds on months of collaborative insights-sharing, positioning both entities to capitalize on secular tailwinds reshaping last-mile logistics.
A Refined Approach to Industrial Real Estate
Faropoint operates across 15 markets spanning the East Coast, Midwest, Southwest and Texas—geographies selected for favorable demographics and high barriers to new entry. The firm’s 120-person team combines deep local expertise with algorithmic deal identification and underwriting capabilities, a formula evidenced by its successful exit from Logistic Fund I. Invesco Real Estate’s $91.1 billion in assets under management and established institutional infrastructure now provide capital and market access to accelerate Faropoint’s acquisition pipeline and market penetration.
This investment signals that in an era of market fragmentation, scale combined with technology-enabled precision remains the winning formula in industrial real estate acquisition.
