OUR STORY
Since 2019, GBA Holdings has acquired 2 million square feet of Florida flex/light industrial. GBA has built a reputation for excellence in execution of complex transactions as well as for superior asset management.
The principals have an extensive background in industrial, flex, office, multifamily and retail properties.
Their operational success comes from significant industry experience. Throughout their careers, GBA’s principals have collectively owned and operated commercial and multifamily properties in 16 states valued in excess of $2 billion.
GBA Holdings principals all began their careers in property management, and thus understand what is required for a great tenant experience while effectively controlling expenses. We provide tenants with the very best value and experience at all of our properties.
We know that excellence in transaction execution and focused asset management maximizes returns for investors. GBA’s fees are intentionally below market thus aligning us with our investors. We don’t make money unless they do.
