JLL Income Property Trust, an institutionally managed daily NAV REIT (NASDAQ: ZIPTAX;ZIPTMX;ZIPIAX;ZIPIMX) today announced the results of its execution on a number of strategic initiatives in the second quarter of 2018, which helped drive operational and investment performance while positioning the company for future growth and enhanced stockholder value.

JLL Income Property Trust ended the first quarter with $2.6 billion in total assets made up of a geographically diversified portfolio of 69 core properties spanning the apartment, industrial, office and retail property sectors. The portfolio is highly leased with an overall occupancy of 93 percent, and an average remaining lease term of six years, supporting JLL Income Property Trust's investment objectives of generating attractive income for distribution to stockholders.

In the second quarter, JLL Income Property Trust acquired Villas at Legacy, an amenity-rich, garden-style 328 unit apartment community located in Plano, Texas. The acquisition of this property supports our investment strategy given its desirable location with an affluent tenant base, highly rated schools and strong market fundamentals and demographics.

"Our portfolio performance remained strong in the second quarter, and looking ahead to Q3, we have already closed on the acquisition of two additional apartment communities," said Allan Swaringen, President and CEO of JLL Income Property Trust. "As our program advances through its sixth year, we are most proud of our investment performance. Our 5-year net of fees return of 7.3% for Class M Shares along with a below 2% standard deviation is a competitive performance track record for a daily-NAV real estate program. With a favorable macroeconomic climate that continues to support strong underlying property fundamentals, we remain focused on driving long-term performance for stockholders."
