Cypress West and TPG Angelo Gordon Joint Venture Acquires Medical Center in Franklin, Tennessee
Cypress West Partners (Cypress West) in joint venture with TPG Angelo Gordon, a diversified credit and real estate investing platform within TPG, today announced the off-market acquisition of Cool Springs Professional Center, a 47,000-square-foot medical office building located at 2001 Mallory Lane in Franklin, Tennessee. This is the eighth acquisition by the Cypress West and TPG Angelo Gordon joint venture and its first acquisition in Tennessee.
Built in 1996, Cool Springs Professional Center is occupied with a strong tenant mix and a weighted average lease term of 4.9 years. Anchor tenants include Vanderbilt University Rheumatology and Results Physiotherapy, complemented by medical specialties including dermatology, men’s health, oculoplastic surgery, neurology, and plastic surgery.
Earlier this year, Cypress West and TPG Angelo Gordon announced a programmatic joint venture seeking to acquire up to $300 million in medical office assets across strategic, high-growth Sunbelt and West Coast markets. The joint venture targets core-plus and value-add returns through leasing, repositioning, and redevelopment.
“Cool Springs is another strong addition to our growing portfolio in partnership with TPG Angelo Gordon,” said Chris Cumella, CEO and Co-Founder of Cypress West. “As we continue to execute on our two-year joint strategy, we are very pleased with progress to date, and our conviction remains strong in the medical office assets we’ve identified in high-growth locations.”
Frank Virga, Managing Director on TPG Angelo Gordon’s U.S. Real Estate team, added, “Our deep experience and resources, combined with Cypress West’s, have enabled our team to identify assets in competitive, emerging hubs for medical services, like Franklin, and execute at a high level. We look forward to the opportunities and continued collaboration ahead.”
