Investicore Holdings USA has acquired the 42-acre ThExchange office park in Charlotte for $64 million. The purchase comes as the new owners look to revitalize the 569,000-square-foot site with new amenities.
Why it matters
The acquisition highlights Investicore's long-term confidence in the Charlotte office market despite the city's 23.9 percent vacancy rate. By adding food and beverage spaces, the firm aims to improve the complex's current 60 percent occupancy level.
The transaction involves a 14-story office park spanning 569,000 square feet that was previously renovated for $34 million in 2020. Occupancy stands at 60 percent, though that figure rises to 85 percent when excluding one vacant building.
