CINCINNATI — An affiliate of Next Realty LLC has sold Kings Automall Shopping Center in Cincinnati for an undisclosed price. The asset was part of Next Realty Fund IX LP. The 67,000-square-foot neighborhood retail center sits at the entrance to the Kings Automall corridor, which is home to 14 auto dealerships representing 18 vehicle brands. Next Realty acquired the property in July 2021 and implemented a business plan focused on strengthening tenant retention and improving occupancy. During the time of ownership, Next Realty leased all vacancies and executed several lease extensions. Most recently, LensCrafters, a tenant at the center since 1997, completed a long-term lease renewal. The leasing activity resulted in a 25 percent increase in the property’s net operating income. The buyer was able to assume the in-place financing, which offered more favorable terms than currently available options.
