Hines Global Income Trust Acquires Multifamily Asset in San Jose

Strategic Location and Trophy Profile Position Asset as Attractive Investment

(SAN JOSE, CA) – Hines, the glob­al real estate invest­ment, devel­op­ment, and prop­er­ty man­ag­er, announced that Hines Glob­al Income Trust, Inc. (“HGIT”) has acquired Hanover Diri­don, a Class‑A mul­ti­fam­i­ly asset locat­ed in San Jose, Cal­i­for­nia. With a diver­si­fied port­fo­lio of glob­al assets, this acqui­si­tion strength­ens HGIT’s robust liv­ing sec­tor allo­ca­tion and expands its pres­ence in Cal­i­for­nia. Wil­low­ick Res­i­den­tial, Hines’ mul­ti­fam­i­ly prop­er­ty man­age­ment firm, which man­ages three oth­er assets in the Bay Area, will assume the role of prop­er­ty manager.

“Diri­don West’s strate­gic loca­tion, tro­phy pro­file, and prox­im­i­ty to pre­mier Sil­i­con Val­ley employ­ers and live-work-play ameni­ties make it an attrac­tive invest­ment,” said Alfon­so Munk, Hines’ CIO of the Amer­i­c­as and pres­i­dent of HGIT. ​“While devel­op­ment costs remain ele­vat­ed in the Bay Area result­ing in a slow­down of new mul­ti­fam­i­ly prod­uct, fun­da­men­tals con­tin­ue to improve, there­fore ide­al­ly posi­tion­ing this asset to cap­i­tal­ize on the strength of the mar­ket.”

Locat­ed at 715 W Julian Street, Hanover Diri­don, which will be rebrand­ed as Diri­don West, is a 7‑story, 249-unit Class A mul­ti­fam­i­ly devel­op­ment com­plet­ed in 2021 and is cur­rent­ly 95% leased. The prop­er­ty includes stu­dios, one-bed­room, and two-bed­room units with lux­u­ry fin­ish­es and resort-style ameni­ties includ­ing a pool with cabanas, rooftop sky deck with cityscape views, a club-qual­i­ty fit­ness cen­ter, a dog spa, indoor/​outdoor club­house, and below-grade park­ing. Addi­tion­al­ly, the asset is locat­ed in a mixed-use micro mar­ket that is with­in walk­ing dis­tance to Whole Foods, the Cal­Train Diri­don Tran­sit Sta­tion, and more.

​“Diri­don West dif­fer­en­ti­ates itself due to its tran­sit-adja­cent loca­tion, and thought­ful unit fin­ish­es and lay­outs,” said Shawn Hardy, Man­ag­ing Direc­tor at Hines. ​“We have high con­fi­dence in this micro mar­ket of San Jose which offers our res­i­dents imme­di­ate access to qual­i­ty retail offerings.”

Includ­ing Diri­don West, HGIT has a $4.1 bil­lion port­fo­lio of com­mer­cial real estate invest­ments that is more than 63% weight­ed toward the liv­ing and indus­tri­al sec­tors. HGIT is diver­si­fied by geog­ra­phy and real estate sec­tors, with a focus on sta­ble assets with strong long-term income poten­tial.

Diri­don West marks Hines’ con­tin­ued growth in the Bay Area, which totals over 9.7 mil­lion square feet that the firm owns or man­ages, with more than 1,000 mul­ti­fam­i­ly units managed.
