Rexford Industrial Realty: Low Yield But High Upside Potential
Rexford Industrial Realty (REXR) is an industrial REIT focuses 100% on infill properties in the crowded and supply-constrained Southern California market. It owns 422 properties leased to over 1,600 individual tenants:
Historically, Southern California has been a phenomenal place to own real estate, especially industrial, because of its geographic supply constraints.
With the Pacific Ocean to its East, mountains flanking its North and West, and the border to its South, there is simply no room to expand the urban sprawl in any direction.
When REXR's management calls the supply constraints in SoCal "virtually incurable," this is what they mean.
When demand grows much faster than supply, this is generally an excellent setup for landlords, who can push rents higher for their mission-critical, irreplaceable buildings.
The situation is even better for industrial real estate owners in particular, because SoCal has been steadily demolishing or redeveloping older industrial spaces into multifamily, retail, or other uses. In many sub-markets, supply isn't just flat; it's shrinking.
We initiated our position just two months ago and it is up 10% already.
