29 transactions involve 4,041 units in Northeast Gebroe-Hammer Associates reports $490M in multifamily sales for Q1 2021

SPOTLIGHTS SPRING PREVIEW ISSUE HIGHLIGHTS Volume 33, Issue 4 April 16, 2021

IVINGSTON, NJ — Gebroe-Hammer As- sociates , a nationally ranked multifamily-focused investment brokerage firm, has reported $490M in sales for a total of 4,041 units at the close of Q1 2021. In total, the firm orchestrated 29 trans- actions on behalf of private equity funds, institutional investors, family offices and private individuals with local, regional, national and global interests. From January through March, Gebroe-Hammer’s sales spanned New Jersey and the South Jersey Metro/ Greater Philadelphia area. Ex- amples of the transaction spec- trum include 10 individual property sales across four East Essex County high-popula- tion-density urbanmunicipali- ties; two North Jersey Metro trades totaling $12.65M; three Central Jersey Metro closings involving 98 units; 12 separate South Jersey Metro deals; and two additional unnamed transactions. “Multifamily properties have established they are on firm footing during this COV - ID economic recovery with all L

economies – North and Central Jersey for example – continued to outperform other metros nationwide. Greater clarity yields heightened confidence and resulting closing activity.” Gebroe-Hammer’s market specialists report positive stabilization of occupancy rates and investment activity in submarkets with short-to- moderate commute times to major cities. Flexible work schedules and telecommut- ing have prompted tenants to cast a wider net geographi- cally, thus feeding the tenant pipeline. “The boundary for what was once considered a maxi- mum commute time/distance from one’s workplace has been blurred,” said executive managing director David Oropeza , a 35-year Gebroe- Hammer veteran, who over- sees the Essex County Region where Q1 sales were recorded in Newark, Irvington, Orange and East Orange. “We’re also seeing the gradual return of Gen Z’ers, who are dip- ping back into the urban- apartment tenant pool after returning home to their fami- lies. When COVID hit, they

wanted to be close to loved ones and a safety net. With confidence up, this cohort is eager to get back to their own lifestyle and abandon that of their parents.” Deeply entrenched within the region’s urban, suburban and tertiary markets, Gebroe- Hammer’s market special- ists also are reporting newer multifamily properties as well as value-add assets and work- force housing are at the top of investor checklists. “The wide delta between multifamily investment de- mand and for-sale product availability remains preva- lent, much like early last year and the months before that,” said executive manag- ing director Joseph Brecher , a 20-year Gebroe-Hammer veteran, who spearheads the firm’s sales activities throughout the Central and South Jersey Metros/Greater Philadelphia area. “Projec- tions indicate 2022 will mark a return to pre-pandemic multifamily fundamentals, notwithstanding the uncer- tainties surrounding future tax legislation and/or interest rates.” MAREJ excellent example. Despite being marketed quietly to a small group of qualified pur - chasers, we generated offers for the seller that were several million dollars higher than the direct offers he received prior to our engagement. This demonstrates the benefits of a transaction being profession- ally marketed pursuant to an exclusive listing. Additionally, the seller, who was the origi- nal developer of the property, appreciated our honest un- derwriting, which was based on realistic, yet aggressive expectations.” Gralla joined Kislak in 2011 and specializes in the sale of multifamily and other invest- ment properties in northern and central NJ. Joni Sweetwood joined Kis- lak in 1996 and is one of the firm’s all-time leading sales - people. MAREJ

arrows pointing to 2021 as the year of strong occupancies and positive rent gains,” said Ken Uranowitz , president, who joined the firm at its inception 46 years ago. “Both of these conditions cast multifamily investments in an extremely favorable light, paving the way for considerable rent and property-value appreciation over the long term.” According to Uranowitz, multifamily’s rebound is rooted in several factors. “Investor demand has been sustained in the COVID-19 economy as compared to previous reces- sions,” he said. “While inves- tors and financial institutions may have waited for some clar- ity at the onset and height of the pandemic in 2020, certain 280-320 E.

Potential Pitfalls Of NNN Properties And A Savvy Alternative ● NNN properties seem like passive investments but actu - ally require regular manage - ment. ● Overconcentration is a key risk when it comes to investing in NNN properties. ● DSTs (Delaware Statutory Trusts) provide an alternative way to invest in NNN proper - ties. ● Diversification and true passivity are unique advan - tages of DST investments. Frequently investors are seeking out reduced manage - ment and or passive real estate investments. Real estate own - ers are simply tired of the three T’s (Tenants, Trash, Toilets) and are looking for alternative options to consider. One option that a lot of inves - tors are being sold by their real estate brokers are Net Leased properties, which are common - ly known as “triple net leases” (or “NNN”). Some Net Lease properties can be nearly 100% passive. Investors will want to carefully understand how the

unique net lease is set up, as some leases may actually have active management responsi - bilities for building upkeep. A client will also want to keep a monthly check in to make sure that the tenant is abiding by their net lease structure and that they are actually paying the various bills (e.g. Com - mon area expenses, Property Taxes and Insurance). It is not uncommon for a large corpora - tion to have a glitch and be late paying property taxes, and this could affect your building if not caught in an appropriate time frame. If an investor is going to be placing their entire 1031 ex - change proceeds or cash alloca -

tion in one net lease property, there are key points that an investor should understand prior to investing: • Concentration Risk – Plac - ing all of your eggs into one basket • Tenant bankruptcies and restructuring – Lease Rejection • Store Closures – “Dark Stores” • 1031 exchange closing risk • Asset and property man - agement responsibilities – un - paid tenant taxes, collecting reimbursements, refinancing, lease term burn off and value erosion, lease renewal and negotiations, legal expenses, insurance issues, etc. continued on page 14A

The weak leasing environment combined with the property’s dilapidated condition made it difficult to attract return-oriented inves - tors. We recognized pretty early that if we were going to hit our pricing we would need to find an owner-user with the capacity and interest in a project like this. Ultimately we were able to find two will - ing to work with us, the seller, and each other to get the deal done. We are continuing to see this trend across the rest of our inventory as owner-users look to capitalize on a low-interest rate environment.

Our team’s extensive market knowledge combined with Colliers’ collaborative platform and top-tier research is sure to help us secure the perfect tenants for our client.” The property is located in Upper Marlboro in southeast Prince George’s County, ap - proximately 10 miles east of the Washington D.C. Central Business District. It consists of almost 1200 acres and more than 3.2 million square-feet of industrial development. The Center offers direct access to major highways including Routes 301 and 50 and Inter - state 495 and is only 20 miles south of Baltimore/Washing - ton’s International Airport.

Additionally, there is a vacant parcel that could support another 5,000 s/f ware - house, offering a buyer upside. The property was a clean, well kept, industrial investment opportunity that we identified as a valuable asset to grow the Kraus Development real estate portfolio. The McClellan Team rep - resented Kraus Development in a competitive offer scenario as multiple buyers were inter - ested. The McClellan Team was able to procure a successful outcome and secure the win - ning bid. Additionally, with one lease nearing expiration, McClellan and Jeter were able to secure a strong tenant replacement and are currently finalizing a lease to once again, achieve 100% occupancy.

No. 1 grocer in the Washing - ton, D.C. area, along with a diverse mix of other tenants that include Starbucks and Advance Auto Parts. The site has a potential expansion and development opportu- nity with an undeveloped 1.3-acre pad site included in the sale. Manokeek Village Center is situated on 15.82 acres at 7025 Berry Rd. in Accokeek, a high-growth submarket ap - proximately 12 miles south of Washington, DC. It is on the “going home” side of Berry Rd. (Rte. 228) where it intersects with Indian Head Highway (Rte. 210), expos - ing the center to a combined

83,000 vehicles per day. The JLL Capital Markets team representing the seller was led by managing director Bill Moylan , senior director Jordan Lex and director Daniel Naughton . “Manokeek Village Center provides the buyer a major- ity of income from essential, credit tenants in a high- growth suburb of Washing - ton, D.C., characteristics that are in demand from both buyers and lenders,” Lex said. The JLL Capital Mar - kets Debt Placement team representing the new own - er included director Evan Parker . MAREJ ed these new businesses to Hoboken by promoting the strong long-term growth po - tential the city offers. Hobo- ken is a walking city, and each business benefits from the significant amount of foot traffic that passes its doors daily. It is also well-connected to New York City and sub - urban New Jersey towns via various modes of mass- transit and has long been a destination for out-of-town visitors who enjoy its vibrant waterfront and dynamic din - ing, boutique shopping, and nightlife scenes. Hoboken’s commercial buildings are pri - marily low-rise and mid-rise buildings that offer a lower density working experience than Manhattan with more fresh air and space for office workers to spread out. “Mayor Ravi Bhalla and the Hoboken City Council have been very supportive of the business community,” Mr. Fini added. “Through the dedicated efforts of the Hobo- ken Business Alliance and the pro-business stance of the City of Hoboken, Marid - ian Properties has been able to attract new businesses, restaurants and professional service providers from New York City and other sur - rounding communities who are eager to plant their flags in Hoboken.” MAREJ
