Sabey Corporation and National Real Estate Advisors announced that Ares Secondaries funds have expanded their investment in Sabey Data Center Properties, bringing Ares’ total commitment to the data center platform to more than $500 million.
The additional investment follows Ares’ minority equity investment in Sabey Data Center Properties announced in July 2026.
Sabey Data Center Properties is a fully integrated owner, developer, and operator of hyperscale and enterprise data centers across the United States.
The platform currently operates data center campuses totaling approximately 275 megawatts of capacity in major U.S. markets.
Its development and expansion pipeline is expected to increase the platform to approximately 737 megawatts by 2033.
The additional capital will support Sabey Data Center Properties as it expands infrastructure to meet increasing demand associated with cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and other data-intensive applications.
Sabey Data Center Properties has more than four million square feet of mission-critical space and serves customers across the technology, financial services, healthcare, and other industries.
The company specializes in scalable data center infrastructure designed around operational reliability, efficiency, and lower total cost of ownership.
Sabey Data Center Properties operates as a joint venture between Sabey Corporation and National Real Estate Advisors, which manages investments on behalf of institutional clients.
The follow-on Ares investment further aligns the three organizations around the continued expansion of the platform.
Ares Management had more than $671 billion in assets under management as of June 30, 2026, with investment strategies spanning credit, real estate, private equity, infrastructure, and secondary markets.
