AUSTIN, TX. – July 30th, 2020 – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has arranged the $26.6 million acquisition loan for a 473,325-square-foot fully-leased office campus at 13625 & 13675 Technology Dr. in Eden Prairie, Minnesota.

JLL worked on behalf of the borrower, Austin-based Virtus Real Estate Capital, to place the 10-year, full-term, fixed-rate loan from a CMBS lender.

Completed in 2001, the mid-rise office complex comprises three buildings that are NNN leased to a Fortune 50 healthcare company. The state-of-the-art office campus offers a comprehensive amenity package including a cafeteria, fitness center, covered parking, auditorium, and impressive glass lines. Situated less than 20 miles southwest of downtown Minneapolis, the suburban office property is strategically located near the intersection of Interstate 494 and U.S. Highway 212, allowing for ease of access throughout the metro area via multiple interstate and highway systems. Also, in one of the Twin Cities’ largest suburbs, the office campus is conveniently placed to offer centralized care for the community and is surrounded by an abundance of desirable neighborhoods and renowned education systems.

The JLL Capital Markets team representing the borrower was led by Senior Managing Director Doug Opalka, Senior Director Chris McColpin and Analyst Alastair Barnes.
