BKM Capital Partners is a Newport Beach-based institutional fund manager and operator that has established itself as a leading specialist in small and mid-bay light industrial properties across the United States since its founding in 2013 by Brian Malliet. The firm focuses on acquiring under-managed and under-capitalized multi-tenant business parks in metropolitan markets, implementing value-add strategies through strategic upgrades and hands-on management. As of December 2025, the company manages over $3.2 billion in assets under management across 100+ active properties spanning approximately 14.4 million square feet. The portfolio spans eight states including California, Arizona, Texas, Florida, Georgia, Washington, Oregon, Nevada, and Colorado, with operations supported by 150+ employees across 17 regional offices. In 2025, BKM marked a transformational year by forming a $1.5 billion joint venture with Kayne Anderson Real Estate and expanding into new markets including Texas and Florida, completing nearly $1.2 billion worth of acquisitions across 46 properties. The firm's vertically integrated platform encompasses all aspects of property operations including asset management, property management, leasing, construction management, and acquisitions. BKM's tenant base consists of over 5,000 local and regional businesses across multiple industries, providing diversification across hundreds of lease relationships rather than concentration in single-tenant arrangements. The company's top markets include Greater Phoenix with 4.5 million square feet, Northern California with focus on Silicon Valley and San Francisco Bay Area, Houston and Dallas-Fort Worth in Texas totaling 1.4 million square feet, and Orlando with nearly 490,000 square feet.
