NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Secure Properties, a leading real estate investment firm specializing in net lease assets, today announced the appointment of Kris Sanderson as Managing Director and Principal, where she will lead acquisition efforts nationwide as the firm continues to scale its portfolio and expand its investment platforms.

Secure currently owns more than 400 properties and manages over $1.5 billion in assets, with a growing focus on acquiring sale-leaseback and net-lease assets sourced through both direct operator relationships and M&A-driven transactions.

Sanderson brings deep industry expertise and a proven track record in acquisitions, portfolio growth and capital markets, with an extensive national network spanning operators, capital partners, brokers and institutional stakeholders. Most recently, she served as Senior Managing Director at STORE Capital, where she was a leader at the firm for the past nine years, and has previous leadership experience at Crosland Southeast and McNeel Properties.

“Secure Properties has built something truly special,” said Sanderson. “The firm’s momentum, culture and entrepreneurial approach to capital formation and investing make this an exciting platform to help scale. With the strength of Secure’s investment vehicles and partnerships, we are exceptionally well-positioned to execute on compelling acquisition opportunities across the country.
