TA Realty

What TA Realty does

TA Realty is a U.S.-focused real estate investment management firm founded in 1982 and headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts. As an SEC-registered investment adviser, the firm manages $19.0B in assets under management and has cumulatively managed, acquired, or invested $44B in U.S. real estate across more than 230 assets in 30+ major U.S. markets. It serves hundreds of U.S. and non-U.S. institutional investors through four core investment vehicles: a diversified Core Open-End Strategy (NCREIF ODCE participant since 2020), a Core-Plus Open-End Sector Specific Strategy (logistics and multifamily), a Value-Add Closed-End Strategy (industrial, multifamily, retail, and office, with leverage capped at 50% LTV), and Customized Separate/Advisory Accounts (~$3.0B AUM). The firm operates a five-office footprint across Boston, Dallas, Newport Beach, San Francisco, and Ashburn and is the U.S. real estate investment arm of Mitsubishi Estate Co., Ltd., Japan's largest real estate company, which became its strategic parent in 2015.

The firm generates revenue primarily through investment advisory and asset management fees charged on AUM, with management fee rates typically ranging from 50-100 bps across strategies and supplemental performance fees on value-add closed-end vehicles and outperformance versus benchmarks. GTM is relationship-based enterprise field sales: separate/advisory mandates are negotiated directly with institutional clients and tailored to each client's strategy, transaction size, geographic focus, property type, and leverage preferences. In 2021, TA Realty launched TA Digital Group as a wholly-owned data center development subsidiary and has since completed and sold the first two hyperscale buildings at a Northern Virginia campus in Leesburg (745,000 square feet, 165 MW IT load), with a five-building, 450 MW campus planned. This data center vertical is being scaled through a $15B planned investment program with Mitsubishi Estate targeting approximately 2.8GW of capacity across 14 large-scale U.S. facilities by 2030, positioning digital infrastructure as a fifth core sector alongside industrial, multifamily, retail, and office. Recent 2025 transactions include a $193M multifamily acquisition from Blackstone in Palm Beach Gardens and a $163M multifamily acquisition in Walnut Creek, alongside divestitures such as the $84.7M Hialeah industrial portfolio sale to Basis Industrial, illustrating active portfolio rotation across the cycle.
