Retail Real Estate Investing

Retail has quietly re-emerged as one of the most compelling risk-adjusted opportunities in commercial real estate. Brixton Capital invests in well-located, necessity-based retail centers anchored by grocers and everyday-needs tenants that generate durable cash flow and meaningful long-term value.

What We Buy

Brixton focuses on multi-tenant anchored retail centers anchored by grocers and other necessity-based tenants. These businesses are both economically resilient and e-commerce resistant.

Neighborhood Centers

(30K–125K SF)
Target cap rate: ~6.25% | Trade area: 1–3 miles

Necessity-oriented centers, typically anchored by a supermarket. We look for dense residential infill locations with strong anchor sales and high building visibility.

Community Centers

(125K–350K SF)
Target cap rate: ~7.00% | Trade area: 3–5 miles

Larger centers offering a wider range of general merchandise and convenience-oriented tenants. Key criteria include proximity to high-traffic intersections and highways, strong anchor sales, and separated building pads.

Power Centers

(250K–600K SF)
Target cap rate: ~7.50% | Trade area: 5–10 miles

Large-format centers with category-dominant anchors like discount department stores, wholesale clubs, and national credit tenants. We target regional locations with freeway access and low box-market vacancy.

Where We Buy

Brixton has historically focused on primary western and southwestern U.S. markets with strong population growth, job creation, and favorable income demographics. We are targeting expansion into select Texas and southeastern markets that share these same characteristics.

Adding Value at Every Stage of Ownership

Relationship-
Based Leasing

Our in-house leasing team maintains direct relationships with national and regional tenants across grocery, QSR, discretionary, and non-discretionary retail categories. This enables faster lease-up, better economics, and higher renewal rates.

Mark-to-Market Rent Growth

We identify and systematically close the gap between below-market in-place rents and achievable market rates through strategic lease renewals and re-tenanting.

Capital Improvements

Targeted, high-ROI capital investments like façade upgrades, parking lot improvements, LED lighting, EV charging, and amenity enhancements elevate the center’s appeal and tenant performance.

Ancillary Revenue Streams

We actively pursue additional income through EV charging stations, pylon signage fees, pop-up activations, short-term rentals, and monetization of common areas and parking.

Operational Efficiency

Bundled service contracts, smart irrigation, solar, and AI-enabled tenant management tools reduce operating expenses and protect NOI.
