KBS is a U.S. real estate investment and asset management platform headquartered in Newport Beach, California, known for sponsoring and managing non-traded real estate investment trusts and separate accounts while executing acquisitions, asset management, capital markets and investor relations in-house. Founded in the 1990s and organized today through KBS Realty Advisors and KBS Capital Markets Group, the firm focuses on institutional-quality commercial properties and related credit facilities, with a concentration in Class A office towers and mixed-use assets across major U.S. metros. Its vertically integrated structure pairs portfolio strategy, leasing, capital expenditure planning and financing, and investor servicing under one umbrella, using its Newport Beach corporate office and a Washington, D.C. office for national coverage. KBS’s current operating emphasis includes proactive balance-sheet management for KBS Real Estate Investment Trust III, refinancing and extending multi-asset credit facilities, and selectively investing capital into leasing, building modernization and tenant improvements to support occupancy and NOI in key markets. Representative properties within REIT portfolios include Accenture Tower in Chicago and multi-asset clusters in Minneapolis, Dallas/Plano, the Bay Area (San Jose/Emeryville), and other primary business districts. KBS distributes REIT information and investor materials via KBS Capital Markets Group, its FINRA/SIPC member broker-dealer. The platform’s investment strategy balances income, growth and capital preservation through targeted leasing, disciplined capital deployment and lender relationships. While the portfolio footprint is national, KBS has notable exposure to top business centers in the Midwest, Texas and California, creating both scale advantages and market-specific cyclicality. Tenant rolls are diversified across blue-chip professional services, technology, and finance occupiers, reflecting the firm’s focus on premier CBD and urban-suburban nodes with strong amenity bases and transportation access.
