HILADELPHIA, PA — Multi-family prop- erties continue their

reign as one of the healthiest commercial real estate invest- ments in Philadelphia and its surrounding submarkets, according to the brokerage pro- fessionals at Gebroe-Hammer Associates. The Livingston, NJ based firm’s market specialists recently arranged three sepa- rate transactions netting a total of $8.65 million.

room units at Aspen Village, located at 732-772 North 49th St., in the Mill Creek section of West Philadelphia near Univer- sity City. “The buyer plans to under- take a comprehensive renova- tion in order to reposition the asset and render it competitive with much of the new construc- tion that has been underway in the area,” said Rosen. “The entire Mill Creek section of the city has undergone an extensive transformation in recent years, making it a highly sought-after neighborhood for families.” ■ military, and in our approach of working with our partners to identify their challenges and create solutions,” said John Picerne , CEO of Corvias Group. “I have worked with Mike for the past seven years and have witnessed his deep understanding of our mission.
