In Fairfield, Cresa NJ – North/Central brokered a re- newal of office and hi-tech pro- duction space at 99 Fairfield Rd. for A-V Services, Inc. Scancarella and Edward English, vice president of Cresa NJ, represented A-V Services in the transaction. The landlord, Commercecen- ter Realty, was represented by Howard Weinberg and Matt Turse of Cassidy Turley. “A-V Services had been a tenant at 99 Fairfield Road since 1987, and the company wanted to investigate alter- natives in the market to see if another property could suit its changing space needs,” said Scancarella. “After our mar- ket analysis we determined that the company’s existing building was the optimal facil- ity and location. We worked quickly with the landlord, who cooperated in discussing creative solutions that would accommodate A-V Services’ needs, leading to the success- ful completion of lease renewal within 90 days.” n NAIOP NJ panel: Opportunistic S i t ua t i on s Ar e Driving The “Smart Money” WOODBRIDGE, NJ—The program title for NAIOP New Jersey’s chapter meet- ing asked the very topical question, “Office, Industrial, Mixed-use: Where is the Smart Money Going?” To answer that question, Mark Goldstein of Liberty Property Trust introduced a panel he termed, “true leaders who have given their time and significant financial resourc- es to New Jersey’s economic benefit.” “The recovery is underway, and transactions are occur- ring – people are buying and selling commercial real estate assets. What are you buying and selling, or not?” moderator Alex Klatskin of Forsgate Industrial Partners asked panelists. For Bill Hankowsky, the answer was “industrial. We bought 4.2 million s/f, mostly industrial, in the past year. “We continue to try to buy value-add situations,” Han- kowsky said. “Most of the institutions are looking for stabilized real estate. We’re targeting value-add.” n
