Mezzanine & Preferred Equity in Lexington, KY

Lexington is the economic center of the Bluegrass Region, anchored by the University of Kentucky and its UK HealthCare system, one of the Southeast's leading academic medical centers with more than 14,000 employees. The metro's economy spans the concentrated equine industry (home to Keeneland, the Kentucky Horse Park, and dozens of premier thoroughbred farms), bourbon distilling, advanced manufacturing (Toyota Motor Manufacturing Kentucky in nearby Georgetown, Lexmark, Big Ass Fans), and a growing technology sector led by Valvoline global HQ and a deep pool of healthcare IT companies. Multifamily demand is supported by the university's 30,000 students and growing medical workforce, while industrial absorption benefits from Amazon's air hub at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) just 80 miles north and Kentucky's central position in the U.S. logistics network.
