Structured as a triple-net lease REIT, the company focuses on single-tenant assets with long-term, credit-backed leases that transfer most property-level responsibilities—including taxes, insurance and maintenance—to its government tenants. The firm’s portfolio encompasses a variety of facility types, including office buildings, training centers, laboratories and mission-critical installations used by federal agencies. Properties are located in key markets across the United States, allowing Easterly to serve a broad spectrum of government tenants such as civilian departments, defense entities and public safety organizations. Its asset strategy emphasizes Class A construction, strategic site selection and lease terms designed to align with agency funding cycles. Since launching its initial public offering in 2014, Easterly has grown through targeted acquisitions and selective development projects. Headquartered in the Washington, D.C. area, the company leverages deep industry relationships and market insight to identify off-market opportunities and execute value-creating transactions. Over time, Easterly has assembled a geographically diversified portfolio that underscores its commitment to serving essential government functions with reliable real estate solutions. Easterly’s leadership team brings extensive experience in government real estate, investment management and property operations. The company’s disciplined underwriting, active asset management and focus on tenant engagement support its objectives of generating stable rental income and delivering long-term shareholder value while meeting the specialized real estate needs of the U.S. government.
