We’re proud to announce a major milestone for Basis Industrial: the acquisition of a 519,476-square-foot infill industrial portfolio in the Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) Metroplex. This all-cash transaction closed on May 1, 2025, and marks our first investment in the Richardson submarket—a key area that aligns with our long-term growth strategy in Texas.

The newly acquired portfolio includes Arapaho 1–9 and Westwood, a collection of functional, well-located industrial properties that support our focus on scalable, high-performance assets in top-tier logistics markets. With this acquisition, our total footprint in the DFW region surpasses 2 million square feet.

Richardson stood out to us for its strong market fundamentals, limited supply, and long-term upside. The area also provides the perfect home for our first Texas-based management office, which will operate out of Arapaho 7. This new regional hub will be managed through BaySpace, our in-house property management division, and will oversee leasing and operations for our growing Texas portfolio.

As we continue to scale nationally, this acquisition strengthens our ability to deliver value across our portfolio. We now own and manage more than 5 million square feet of industrial space and over 1.5 million square feet of self-storage nationwide, with an additional 2 million to 3 million square feet expected to close by the end of the year.

At Basis, we’re committed to investing in high-demand markets and leveraging our vertically integrated model to manage assets efficiently and effectively. Our Texas expansion is just one part of the broader momentum that continues to define our national platform.
