Big Sky Medical Joins With GFH On $200M Medical Office Deal Across Seven States

GFH, a leading institutional investor based in Bahrain with a global portfolio of investments, has a $200 million deal with Dallas-based Big Sky Medical to acquire 13 outpatient medical office buildings across seven states.

“Big Sky “complements our own global investment capabilities with deep knowledge of the US healthcare market,” Nael Mustafa Chief Investment Officer, Real Estate of GFH said in prepared remarks.

Earlier this year, Newmark assisted in arranging the joint venture, which was seeded by a $400+ million medical office portfolio aggregated by Big Sky during the past 12 months. Newmark led the portfolio financing.

 “The transaction “is a good indication that the market remains quite competitive for well-curated healthcare portfolios,” Newmark senior managing director John Nero said in a prepared statement.

Nero, along with executive managing director Ben Appel, senior managing directors Jay Miele and Michael Greeley of Newmark’s Healthcare Capital Markets group and vice chairman Alex Foshay and executive managing director Joseph Morris of Newmark’s International Capital Markets group, acted as sole financial advisors to the joint venture.

The transaction includes a component for future acquisition financing, which will allow the venture to continue its acquisition strategy under similar terms, according to a release.

In a series of successive deals, Big Sky Medical Real Estate has purchased 13 medical office and life science buildings across Texas, Florida, Wisconsin, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Michigan for a combined $251.4 million, public records show.

BMO Harris Bank provided $189 million in acquisition financing, according to CommercialEdge data.

The company paid $64.5 million for a 149,000-square-foot medical office building in West Bloomfield, Mich. Seavest sold the 1985-built property located at 6900 Orchard Lake Road. Bloomfield Cardiology, Michigan Institute of Urology and Orchard Pediatrics are tenants at the building, among others.

Other major acquisitions include Spectra Labs, a 204,500-square-foot life science building in Rockleigh, N.J., sold for $50.5 million by Charter Realty Group. In another transaction, Big Sky paid $39 million to Retina Consultants of Houston for a 52,825-square-foot medical office building in Bellaire, Texas.

Another $39 million went toward the purchase of a 60,000-square-foot property in Brandon, Fla. Harrod Healthcare Real Estate sold the medical office building that came online in 2019 at 515 S. Kings Ave. Women’s Care, one of the region’s dominant multispecialty health practices, is the facility’s only tenant. JLL brokered the transaction on behalf of the seller.

A few months ago, Big Sky Medical formed a partnership with an institutional investor with the intention to acquire $1 billion worth of medical office assets across the U.S. The new investment vehicle was seeded with a $400 million portfolio that Big Sky had amassed in the past 12 months.
