Carter Validus Mission Critical REIT (CVMC REIT) has acquired an AT&T data center property in Waukesha, Wisconsin. AT&T owned the building, and sold it to Carter Validus for $52 million and then signed a 10-year lease to continue using the facility.

The data center houses enterprise applications for AT&T’s business operations, and features 40,000 square feet of raised floor space and 60,000 square feet of supporting infrastructure and critical systems.

“The addition of the AT&T Data Center is representative of our commitment to acquire high quality, mission critical assets under long-term net leases with credit tenants,” said John Carter, CEO of CVMC REIT. “We look forward to adding more assets of this caliber to our investment portfolio.”
