The investment arm of NAI Partners—one of the top-five largest privately-held, full-service commercial real estate firms in Texas—today announces its new name: Partners Capital. The business entity was previously known as the NAI Investment Fund. Partners Capital remains a wholly owned subsidiary of NAI Partners.
“Today is an incredibly exciting day for us,” said Andrew Pappas, Head of Partners Capital and shareholder at NAI Partners. “Partners Capital represents the evolution of our investment platform and our team’s steadfast commitment to a shared vision. After closing more than $125 million in transactions since 2017, we are well on our way to our stated goal of a portfolio of $1 billion—and we are just getting started.”
“Partners Capital has fully deployed three investment funds in three years, continually delivering strong in-place cash flow combined with tremendous upside to its investors through vacancy lease-up, mark-to-market rates, and meticulous asset management of its property portfolio,” said Jon Silberman, Managing Partner of NAI Partners. “Refining the investment fund platform’s identity as Partners Capital will augment its reputation and brand recognition as it goes to market and wins deals, and create increased value for its investors,” said Mr. Silberman.
Added Mr. Pappas, “As Partners Capital prepares to launch fund number four, our goal remains as ironclad as ever: leverage proprietary data and technology combined with decades of market expertise in order to generate value for our investors.”
In conjunction with the new imprint, Partners Capital is also pleased to announce the official launch of its own dedicated presence on the web, located at www.partnersrec.com. The new website gives the investment platform a substantive digital home, with individual fund highlights, property showcases, case studies, media clips, an investor portal, and more.
Mr. Pappas has led Partners Capital for nearly five years. During that time he has spearheaded the acquisition of more than 1 million sq. ft. of office, industrial and retail properties in Houston, Austin, San Antonio, and Dallas, and overseen more than $165 million in transaction volume.
