CHICAGO, June 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- JLL Income Property Trust, an institutionally managed, daily NAV REIT (NASDAQ: ZIPTAX; ZIPTMX; ZIPIAX; ZIPIMX; ZIPIBX; ZIPSAX; ZIPZAX; ZIPDBX) with approximately $6.8 billion in portfolio equity and debt investments, announced that it closed a $49 million mortgage loan secured by Louisville Logistics Center, a Class A distribution center totaling approximately 1M square feet in the south Louisville, KY market. The loan has a five-year term with an interest rate of 5.28%. The transaction supports JLL Income Property Trust's strategy to increase accretive leverage in its portfolio to enhance point forward returns.

"As debt capital markets continue to improve following the recent repricing cycle, we are seeing more favorable terms on debt, creating opportunities to add accretive leverage on both new and existing properties in our core real estate portfolio," said Allan Swaringen, President and CEO of JLL Income Property Trust. "During this recovery phase of the real estate cycle, the addition of accretive leverage to gradually increase our loan-to-value ratio is a strategic component of our business plan to drive positive performance. This added leverage on a high-quality industrial property in an infill location should provide the portfolio with durable cash flow and enhance income for our investors."

Louisville Logistics Center is a state-of-the-art, cross dock distribution center strategically located in the industrial submarket of South Louisville, Kentucky. The property was acquired by the fund in 2023 and features significant custom equipment and technology enhancements by the tenant. The region is home to major air and ground distribution hubs for UPS, and the confluence of major highways allows distribution to over half of the U.S. population within a day's drive, making it one of the more desirable logistics locations in the Central U.S.

JLL Income Property Trust's allocation to industrial real estate remains one of its highest conviction property sectors. As of March 31, 2026, industrial investments comprise the largest percentage of the total $6.8 billion portfolio at 38%, with $2.4 billion in assets across 64 industrial properties.
