Irvington portfolio sale achieves record price per unit Lucern Capital Partners sells four property portfolio for $8.5 million

were constructed between 1920 and 1966 and represent a record price per unit in the submarket for buildings of this vintage. “We have always seen up- side in Irvington and focused our efforts here while transac- tional volume was exploding in neighboring East Orange. Outside of Irvington’s de- sirable geographic location, which is proximate to work- force employment centers, we felt Irvington’s long standing negative connotation provided an arbitrage opportunity rela- tive to greater Essex County.

We executed our vision, up- grading units, common areas, and the physical plant of each building. Our rents are now some of the highest in the sub- market, NOI growth has been substantial, and we have dem- onstrated a proof of concept for the new owner while complet- ing all of the heavy lifting. We are excited to see the new owner pick up where we left off and extract continued value from the portfolio”, said Frank Forte , managing partner of Lucern Capital Partners. The buildings ranged in size from 17 to 25 units, and the portfolio had a strong unit mix of 33% two and three bedroom floorplans. Floorplans ranged in size from 450 to 1,000 s/f in the primarily brick façade buildings. All buildings have parking lot or garage accom- modations. All four buildings are tightly clustered, and 1 mile or less from each other, providing easy management capability and control of the local submarket. Marcus & Millichap pro- cured the purchaser, and the seller negotiated the off-mar- ket transaction. Matthew Curro of Curro Law provided counsel to the seller on the transaction.  Nathin of Sheldon Gross Realty man- ages transaction at Elmwood Park ELMWOOD PARK, NJ — A 4,494 s/f office space at 619 River Dr., Elmwood Park has been leased by
