02 — Why Kensington
Sites, capital, and portfolio intelligence.
Site Selection
Power, fiber, latency, and land — scored before you bid. We originate locations that can be built, leased, and financed, not just optioned.
— Location is a capital decision
Adaptive Reuse
Industrial, warehouse, and stranded real estate converted into financeable data center capacity — structure, power path, and entitlements underwritten as one deal.
— Existing stock, DC economics
Investor-Grade Execution
We underwrite like principals — capital raising, sale-leasebacks, and investment sales structured to clear investment committee.
— Priced to trade, not to pitch
Lease, Contracts & Portfolio
Leasing, lease management, contract negotiations, and portfolio research — so every basis point compounds, and you know what to hold, sell, or buy next.
— Terms and timing that outlast the cycle
03 — Core Services
From site to sale — ten ways we create value in data centers.
01

Proof: scored to build and finance — not just to option.
02
Adaptive Reuse
Convert industrial and stranded real estate into data center capacity. We underwrite structure, power path, and entitlements as a financeable DC — not a renovation story.

Proof, not promises.
Sites · Capital · Leasing · Portfolio
Case Study 01 — Site Selection · Adaptive Reuse
From Stranded Industrial to Financeable MW
- Challenge
- Operator needed capacity in a constrained market without a greenfield clock — existing industrial stock, uncertain power path.
- Solution
- Originated the site, underwrote conversion (structure, entitlements, power), and framed the capital stack as a data center from day one.
- Result
- Site locked · conversion scoped · path to IC, not a renovation memo.
Case Study 02 — Sale-Leaseback · Capital Recycling
Unlocking Capital Without Losing Capacity
- Challenge
- Operator needed to recycle capital from a stabilized 20MW asset while retaining 10-year operational control.
- Solution
- Structured sale-leaseback with escalations and expansion rights; competitive investor process.
- Result
- Capital unlocked + lease secured · Below-market re-lease economics.
Case Study 03 — Leasing & Portfolio Advisory
Portfolio Lease Strategy at Scale
- Challenge
- Enterprise portfolio with 6 leases rolling in 18 months — exposure to rent spikes and SLA gaps.
- Solution
- Portfolio lease management + consolidated negotiation — leverage across sites, not one by one.
- Result
- −14% blended rent · Unified SLAs · Renewal optionality secured.
