The Boulder Group Arranges Sale of a Single Tenant Net Lease US Bank Office Building

Randy Blankstein and Jimmy Goodman of The Boulder Group represented both parties in the transaction

The Boulder Group, a net leased investment brokerage firm, has completed the sale of a single tenant US Bank office property located at 615 East Michigan Street in Milwaukee, WI for $14,000,000. 

The US Bank office is directly adjacent and connected by a sky-walk to the U.S. Bank regional headquarters building in the central business district of Milwaukee.  The office houses USBancorp’s Fund Services unit, a subsidiary of U.S. Bank.  The fund services unit is a highly profitable business unit, currently in the top three in mutual fund servicing business with roughly a 24% market share.  The property is located along the Interstate 794 interchange.  

Randy Blankstein and Jimmy Goodman of The Boulder Group represented both parties in the transaction.  The purchaser was a Midwest based partnership in a 1031 Tax Exchange. The seller was Oak Street Real Estate Capital, a Chicago based private equity firm.  Seller was steadfast in successfully closing the transaction.  The transaction had multiple issues to overcome and Seller’s persistence got the property back on track with astute structuring and superb execution.

The US Bank lease expires in December 2026 and features 2% annual rental escalations throughout the primary term. US Bank is a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange (USB) with a market capitalization in excess of $73.5 Billion. 

“The market for properties occupied by major banks remains active as investors are attracted to investment grade rated companies” said Randy Blankstein, President of The Boulder Group.  Jimmy Goodman, Partner of The Boulder Group, added, “There are limited single tenant office properties available in core downtown markets, creating cap rate compression for credit tenanted assets.”
