This partnership delivers up to $150 million in leverageable capital to support continued growth across Great Elm’s real estate platform, which includes Monomoy REIT, Monomoy CRE (MCRE), Monomoy Construction Services (MCS), and Monomoy BTS (MBTS) (together “Monomoy”).

“KLIM’s investment strengthens our position as a full-spectrum real estate enterprise,” said Jason Reese, Chief Executive Officer of Great Elm. “Their deep sector expertise, alignment with our long-term vision, and capital commitment empower us to deliver superior value to Monomoy’s tenants and clients as well as our shareholders.”

“We are excited to partner with Great Elm and support the continued expansion of its industrial real estate platform,” said David Chene, Co-Founder of KLIM. “The integrated strategy being executed through Monomoy is exactly the kind of scalable, opportunity-rich platform we seek to support. We look forward to working closely with the leadership team to unlock the full potential of this business.”
