Sagard Real Estate Expands Portfolio with Acquisition of Oswego Village in Lake Oswego, Oregon

by Marshall Rosario

Sagard Real Estate, formerly known as EverWest Real Estate Investors, has recently acquired Oswego Village, a premier 103,000 square-foot grocery-anchored retail center located in the upscale downtown area of Lake Oswego, Oregon. The acquisition reflects Sagard Real Estate's continued strategy of investing in high-quality, well-located properties with long-term value potential.

Prime Location and High-Quality Tenants

Oswego Village stands out due to its prime location in one of Oregon’s most affluent communities. Anchored by high-credit tenants such as Whole Foods and Ace Hardware, the property is poised to offer sustained growth and stability. According to Tom Stover, Managing Director of Acquisitions at Sagard Real Estate, "Oswego Village represents the kind of high-quality, grocery-anchored retail assets we seek to add to our portfolio. The property’s location in Lake Oswego, coupled with its strong tenant base, positions it for long-term value creation."

The retail center's location in Lake Oswego offers significant advantages. The area boasts an average household income of over $200,000 within a one-mile radius, making it an attractive destination for both national retailers and local consumers. Known for its scenic beauty, exceptional schools, and strong sense of community, Lake Oswego is one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in Oregon.

Recent Renovations and Strong Tenant Retention

Oswego Village has undergone extensive renovations between 2019 and 2021, which have contributed to its strong tenant retention and active engagement with the local community. The center features a balanced mix of national and regional tenants, providing a diverse array of services such as food and beverage, lifestyle, and healthcare options to meet the everyday needs of residents.

As part of its commitment to maintaining the property’s appeal, Sagard Real Estate plans to implement additional targeted upgrades. These improvements will further solidify Oswego Village’s position as a premier retail destination in the Lake Oswego area.
