Financing secured for Four Oaks Industrial Park in Texas

JLL Capital Markets has arranged the financing for Four Oaks Industrial Park totaling 170,000 square feet in Schertz, Texas.

JLL worked on behalf of the borrower, Rosewood Property Company, to secure the loan from Lincoln Financial Group.

The single-building, two-tenant industrial park was delivered in 2022 and is fully occupied. The building sits on a 9.59-acre parcel and features 32 dock-high doors, two drive-in doors and 30-foot clear heights.

Located at 17670 Four Oaks Lane, Four Oaks Industrial Park is strategically situated approximately 1,300 feet from I-35 and is less than a 60-minute drive to both the San Antonio and Austin metros. The region also boasts a highly accessible location that is proximate to many of Texas’ major thoroughfares. This accessibility to dense population centers has led to steady demand along the I-35 Corridor. This demand has also allowed the surrounding Guadalupe/Comal County submarket to become one of the best performing industrial submarkets in Central Texas.

The JLL Capital Markets Debt Advisory team was led by Senior Managing Director John Brownlee and Director John Bauman.

Connection Park Logistics Center trades in San Antonio
