Industrial real estate is indeed a hot asset class, with significant activity and opportunities. Based on the most helpful WSO content:
Opportunities in Industrial Real Estate:
Active Shops in Industrial Real Estate:
While specific names of active shops aren't directly listed in the context, Chicago is highlighted as a region with notable industrial activity. Firms like Lincoln, William Blair (WB), Baird, Houlihan Lokey (HL), and Greenhill & Co. (GHL) are mentioned in the context of industrial deal flow and experience.
If you're looking to explore opportunities, focus on understanding market-specific trends, tenant needs, and the evolving dynamics of the industrial sector.

Most large institutional firms (pe firms, lifecos, etc.) have some sort of allocation to it. Not a pure industrial guy but have done a decent amount of work in the space. In terms of top industrial focused shops I’ve seen - you got Link Logistics (Blackstone portco), Cabot Properties, Centerpoint Properties, Jadian, GLP, Realterm, Bridge, Faropoint, EQT, Longpoint, plus some of the big reits - Prologis, STAG, First Industrial, etc. Probably missing a bunch, but I’d say those are some of the big dawgs writing the biggest checks (not to say big checks = success all the time).

^what REPE said. Read a book kid
what is this "book" that tells me which shops are active in this second half of 2026? please share!! i read a lot of books but nothing as cool as that!
CoStar or any real estate trade publication...
We've only bought 20 deals so far
Mind if I ask what shop? Seeing a lot of activity it seems in IOS as its the "new" hot asset on the block.
Curious as I'm working for a small deal-by-deal industrial sponsor right now and its tough going in acquisitions right now. Cant make deals work without aggressive rent growth assumptions for the most part, and therefore makes raising capital very difficult.
What’s the rent growth variable look like in your proforma? Aren’t you just starting at this year’s or next year’s market rent and running 3% annual increase on a 5-10 year term? At least MF has annual resets where you can get “optimistic”
