Lakes on Post Oak

Houston, TX • Initial Acquisition 2002 - 2005
CASE STUDY

Returns

BACKGROUND

  • Three Class-A office buildings on 23 acres in the Galleria submarket; totaling 1.2 million square feet

  • Acquire a tired, poorly leased three-building office portfolio (of which ownership was held by two separate, unrelated parties) and add value by unifying ownership and performing extensive renovations to common areas

Execution

  • Invested $15MM in renovations to upgrade the exterior and interior common areas, timed to coincide with municipally funded road improvements

  • Demand for vacant space increased with the completion of both improvements in a submarket that was at one time losing occupancy. This trend continued as CPG brought the occupancy to 90%
