We sat down with Anthony Scavo over cocktails to break down his career trajectory and the strategy behind Basis Industrial's recent $84.75 million acquisition of a 42-building industrial portfolio in Hialeah.

Anthony brings decades of institutional weight to the table. After growing up in Brooklyn and attending NYU, he spent 26 years alongside his father overseeing construction for the LeFrak Organization. Since joining Basis Industrial in 2021, he has helped pivot the firm toward a highly lucrative niche: small bay warehouses.

In this episode, we cover:

• The transition from the LeFrak Organization to Basis Industrial.
• The specific economic tailwinds driving the small bay warehouse market.
• The thesis behind their massive $84.75 million Hialeah portfolio acquisition.
• How Basis scaled to over 77 properties and 12 million square feet of industrial space.

Basis is actively looking for new opportunities, making this required listening for anyone operating in the South Florida industrial market.
