A mystery buyer has purchased a retail center in South Austin from SITE Centers.
Cathy Nabours and Kyle Shaffer of SRS Real Estate Partners brokered the sale of the 26,000-square-foot Oaks at Slaughter, which property records show is owned by an LLC with the same address as Ohio-based SITE Centers. The buyer is a New York-based REIT, according to a news release from SRS.
The center benefits from the adjacent H-E-B.
“Investor demand for retail product throughout the South and in Central Texas is at an all-time high,” said Nabours, managing principal of SRS.
Torchy’s Tacos, Ramen Tatsuya, Twin Liquors and JuiceLand are tenants of the shopping center, which is 94 percent leased overall. It’s off of Interstate 35 at the confluence of Slaughter Lane and South Congress.
“The submarket has seen expansive growth with a 60 percent population increase over the past 10 years and a projected 7 percent increase over the next five years,” SRS said in a news release.
In the same vein, South Florida-based JBL Asset Management bought the 106,000-square-foot Olmos Creek Shopping Center in San Antonio from Dallas-based TCP Realty Services. It is 95 percent leased with tenants including Dollar Tree and Planet Fitness.
Six of the 13 bidders were from out of state, said Nabours, who brokered the sale with Shaffer.
“Despite the rising interest rate environment, there are more investors looking to buy than there are properties available for sale,” she said.
