The US-based real estate investment advisor arm of global asset manager Sagard has acquired a $91m (€78.8m) distribution facility in Maryland.

Sagard Real Estate (SRE) has bought the 621,144sqft 7001 Quad Avenue asset in Rosedale from an unnamed seller.

The fully-let, 32-acre cross-dock facility is situated in Baltimore County East and was completed in 2004.

Belah Terentjev, director, acquisitions at Sagard Real Estate, said: “This large-scale logistics asset would be difficult to replicate in an infill port market.
