“A transaction of this size, and geographic scope, is complex and requires an innovative approach to close it on time, while meeting the diverse needs of all parties.

“MedProperties will retain an ownership stake in these assets and will continue to serve as the asset manager. They have acquired and financed the development of 4 million square feet of commercial real estate across 23 states, and we are delighted to be a partner with them,” said Cole Gearhart, a Winstead Shareholder.
