Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. (the “Company” or “Rexford Industrial”) (NYSE:REXR), a real estate investment trust focused on owning and operating industrial properties located in Southern California in-fill markets, today announced the acquisition of two industrial properties representing approximately 218,768 rentable square feet for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $24.9 million. These transactions were funded with availability on the Company’s credit facility and with proceeds of $4.35 million from the sale of a 63,305 square foot office building in Simi Valley, which was completed in March. The office building had been acquired as part of an acquisition of a 136,065 square foot industrial property that occurred in December 2013, with the intention of selling the office component.

"We are pleased to complete the acquisition of these two single tenant industrial buildings within our primary target in-fill markets, bringing total acquisitions thus far in 2014 to more than $54 million,” said Howard Schwimmer and Michael Frankel, Co-Chief Executive Officers of the Company. “Both properties are modern, highly-functional industrial facilities that are 100% leased to entrenched corporate tenants, and are expected to be immediately accretive to cash flow. In addition, the sale of the Madera office building provided capital for recycling and demonstrates our ability to execute more complex and value-add transactions. We continue to review a strong pipeline of potential opportunities within our target in-fill markets as we grow our portfolio and enhance stockholder value.”
