BAACO building background with BAACO Properties lettering

Growth Strategy

We actively pursue retail, office, industrial, and mixed-use assets that meet a disciplined return profile.

What we look for in new opportunities

BAACO Properties is actively pursuing new acquisitions across the Tri-State area and nationally, with a focus on stabilized and value-add opportunities that align with our return thresholds and hands-on operating approach.

4 Core Asset Types
6+ Target Cap Rate Entry
National Reach for Select Deals

Asset Type

Retail, office, industrial, and mixed-use assets that fit BAACO's portfolio and operating strengths.

Target Regions

Primary focus on the Tri-State area, with select acquisitions pursued nationally when pricing and asset quality meet criteria.

Stabilized Assets

BAACO targets stabilized properties at region-specific return thresholds, with required cap rates increasing outside core urban markets.

Unstabilized Assets

We also seek vacant buildings at low price-per-square-foot levels, especially where active repositioning can create value.

Lease Opportunity

Below-market rents with near-term lease expirations are attractive when they offer a practical path to improved performance.

Operational Upside

Under-managed properties requiring capital improvements are a strategic fit when active ownership can unlock long-term value.

Regional cap-rate targets

6 cap or higher: Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens.

8 cap or higher: Long Island, Staten Island, the Bronx, and Westchester.

10 cap or higher: New Jersey, Connecticut, and Philadelphia.

11 cap or higher: Opportunities throughout the United States.

6+ NYC Core Markets
8+ Long Island and Outer Boroughs
10+ NJ, CT and Philadelphia
11+ National Opportunities
