SFF Realty closes $500M Bay Area fund

SFF Realty Fund V was raised in roughly a 12-month window and closed oversubscribed as a dedicated $500 million vehicle for Bay Area office and R&D acquisitions. (cremarketbeat.com) SEC Form D filings show 26 institutional investors accounted for roughly $291,835,000 of the vehicle’s reported equity, with the offering registered under SFF Realty Fund V, L.P. (nasaaefd.org) SFF Realty Partners is the sponsor listed on Fund V and the filing names H. Michael Feldman, Erik A. Foraker and Casey R. Holt as related executives; founder Peter Sullivan is not listed on the Fund V filings. (13f.info) The sponsor’s recent Bay Area buyouts include a five‑building Mountain View Corporate Center acquired earlier in 2026 for about $193 million and The Plaza at Walnut Creek purchased in 2024 for roughly $162 million, illustrating the type and price scale of assets the firm has been underwriting. (bisnow.com) Fund V’s stated strategy emphasizes value‑add office and R&D properties that generate current rent but require physical or operational upgrades, and the manager plans to source deals through brokerage relationships. (connectcre.com) Local coverage and industry sources link the fund’s timing to concentrated demand from venture‑backed AI and R&D tenants seeking modern, tech‑capable buildings—an occupier trend that market participants say is narrowing the investable pool of move‑in‑ready Bay Area assets.
