Exhibit 99.2

To our Valued Stockholders:

As we enter the second half of the year, we want to continue to provide you with an update on the industrial real estate sector and performance of Black Creek Industrial REIT IV Inc. (BCI IV). The broader economy continues to face headwinds as a result of COVID-19 (COVID), with impacts on commercial real estate varying dramatically across property types. The industrial real estate sector in which we invest continues to outperform most property sectors¹. As of July 31, 2020, our wholly owned portfolio was 97.4% leased to a broad roster of tenants across 55 assets in 18 markets. After adjusting for the impact of forbearance, we received or agreed to defer 99% of our rent originally payable for the month of July, reflecting the continued resilience in the industrial sector and strength of our portfolio.

BCI IV’s total return during July, with respect to Class T shares (without upfront sales charge), was 0.37%, including a net monthly distribution of $0.037 per Class T share, which is equivalent to an annualized yield of 4.42%² based on NAV. Our NAV per share at July 31, 2020 was $10.06³, which was flat relative to the previous month’s NAV per share, and represents, as of that date, with respect to Class T shares (without upfront sales charge), a trailing one year return of 4.64% and a since inception⁴ annualized return of 4.77%². Altus Group, our Independent Valuation Advisor, continues to monitor and update its valuation assumptions including making certain factual and market based COVID related adjustments to the cash flows used to determine our real estate valuations, which are reflected in our NAV. Our Independent Valuation Advisor is responsible for overseeing the valuation of over $500 billion of institutional real estate throughout the U.S. We believe these COVID-related adjustments, including adjustments for items such as rent forbearance agreements and credit losses, which have been reflected in our NAV since the early stages of the COVID pandemic in the U.S., remain appropriate to account for short-term uncertainties and such reserves continue to be reflected in July’s NAV.

We remain confident in our ability to navigate through this period with discipline and conviction. Our investment strategy has remained consistent with a focus on well-located, highly functional bulk distribution and light industrial facilities in the largest distribution and logistics markets across the country. On July 15, 2020, BCI IV acquired from Industrial Property Trust, an affiliate of BCI IV’s sponsor, a minority interest in two portfolios aggregating 83 properties, including 18 buildings under construction or in the pre-construction phase. This acquisition is a great compliment to the existing BCI IV portfolio, giving us access to a high quality portfolio in mostly tier 1 locations and the potential for additional upside as assets complete construction and are stabilized. While we continue to seek out additional acquisition opportunities, we have seen a significant slowing of marketed transactions around the country. That said, our team remains a patient buyer of assets and stands ready to capitalize as investment opportunities arise. However, slower than anticipated investment of capital may reduce BCI IV’s near term cash flow and may result in a short-term drag on NAV in the absence of asset appreciation or continued expense support from our advisor.

The economic challenges resulting from the COVID pandemic continue to evolve, and we are constantly evaluating its impact. We continue to believe that the U.S. industrial real estate sector remains one of the best positioned within commercial real estate. The U.S. industrial real estate sector entered this crisis with historically strong operating fundamentals complemented by structural tailwinds from the growth of e-commerce and we believe industrial fundamentals will remain resilient through the economic disruption. Over the past 10 years, we have seen e-commerce sales grow approximately 15%⁵ annually, and before COVID, e-commerce was expected to grow from 14%⁵ of overall retail sales to more than 25%⁶ by 2025. However, with the rapid adoption of e-commerce seen over the past few months, we expect that the growth could reach 25% well before 2025. Further, we remain confident in our investment strategy and believe BCI IV is well positioned to navigate through these uncertain times and ultimately create long-term value for our stockholders. Most of all, we appreciate the trust you have placed in us and hope you all are staying safe.  

Sincerely,

The Black Creek Team

² For the same trailing one-month period ended July 31, 2020, Class T shares (with sales charge) returned -4.14%, Class I shares returned 0.46% and Class W shares (with ongoing distribution fee) returned 0.41%. For the same trailing one-month period ended July 31, 2020, BCI IV paid $0.037, $0.045 and $0.041 in distributions for Class T shares (with ongoing distribution fee), Class I shares and Class W shares (with ongoing distribution fee), respectively. For the same trailing one-year period ended July 31, 2020, Class T shares (with sales charge) returned -0.07%, Class I shares returned 5.67% and Class W shares (with ongoing distribution fee) returned 5.15%.  For the period from their respective inception dates to July 31, 2020, the annualized return for Class T shares (with sales charge) was 3.03%, for Class I shares was 5.81% and for Class W shares (with ongoing distribution fee) was 5.34%. Annualized yield is calculated as the current month’s gross distribution, less the current month’s distribution fees, annualized and divided by NAV. While the annualized yield is based on NAV, most Class T shares are sold at a price equal to NAV plus upfront selling commissions and fees of 4.5% of the purchase price. The inception date for Class I Shares was November 1, 2017, and for Class W Shares was July 2, 2018. Performance is measured by total return, which includes income and appreciation (i.e., distributions paid and changes in NAV through the end of the applicable period) and is a compound rate of return that assumes reinvestment of all distributions for the respective time period. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Performance would be lower if calculated assuming that distributions are not reinvested. Performance data quoted above is historical and applies to Class T shares only. For the same periods, the return on Class T performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. Actual individual investor returns will vary. The returns have been prepared using unaudited data and valuations of the underlying investments in BCI IV’s portfolio, which are estimates of fair value and form the basis for BCI IV’s NAV. Valuations based upon unaudited or estimated reports from the underlying investments may be subject to later adjustments or revisions, may not correspond to realized value and may not accurately reflect the price at which assets could be liquidated on any given day.
