Multifamily, Industrial Sales Highlight Strong Week For Mid-Market Deals

The multifamily market got a shot in the arm last week as affordable housing developers picked up distressed properties from All Year Management in Park Slope, while developer ZD Jasper bought land for a 90,000-square-foot residential building in Hunters Point.

Israel Perlmutter sold a 20-unit mixed-use building in Williamsburg to Joel Rubin and Abraham Leifer of Aview Equities unloaded a parcel from a Downtown Brooklyn assemblage that never quite panned out.

Meanwhile, industrial properties kept brokers busy in Hell’s Kitchen, Ridgewood and Jamaica, accounting for three of the ten investment sales recorded last week in the $10 million to $30 million range.

Four properties traded hands in mid-market sales in Queens, three in Brooklyn, two in Manhattan and one in the Bronx for a total of $158 million in the final week of July, up from the week before, when investment sales in the same price range totaled $113 million across six deals.
