Bayonne Multifamily Property Trades at 97% of List Price

BAYONNE, NEW JERSEY—Matthews™, a commercial real estate investment services and technology firm, represented the buyer and seller in the sale of a multifamily property located at 301 Broadway in Bayonne, New Jersey. Senior Vice President & Director David Ferber facilitated the $1,165,000 transaction. The seller, a repeat Matthews™ client, brought the property to market to capitalize on strong investor demand. Leveraging the firm’s proprietary AI platform, Artemis, Ferber targeted multifamily investors throughout Bayonne, Hudson County, and North Jersey, generating a competitive buyer pool. Ferber directly sourced the buyer, whose combination of pricing and certainty of execution maximized value for the seller and allowed the transaction to close efficiently at 97 percent of the list price. Located in Bayonne, the six-unit property is 100 percent free market and offers approximately 21 percent rental upside. The asset features renovated units, in-unit laundry, separately metered utilities, and recently replaced roof and boilers. Situated approximately an eight-minute walk from the 8th Street Light Rail Station, the property provides convenient access to Manhattan via the PATH train. “Buyers responded to the combination of strong in-place income, free-market rents and meaningful remaining upside,” Ferber said. “The seller had a well-maintained asset with a number of major improvements already completed, which allowed us to create strong interest and ultimately close at 97% of the asking price. It’s another example of the continued demand we’re seeing for well-positioned Bayonne multifamily properties.” Matthews™ is also marketing four additional Bayonne properties for sale.

$10.4M Medical Office Redevelopment Sets Eight-Year Pricing Benchmark in South Pinellas

ST. PETERSBURG, FL—Matthews™, a commercial real estate investment services and technology firm, facilitated the transaction off-market by connecting the buyer and seller in the sale of Mid-Pinellas Medical Center, located at 2805 54th Avenue North in St. Petersburg, Florida. Associate Vice President Jake Allen brokered the $10,400,000 deal, marking the highest sale price for a medical office sold in the South Pinellas submarket within the last eight years. The seller, Rubin Real Estate Advisors, elected to divest the asset as part of a strategy to capitalize on the successful redevelopment and redeploy capital into future growth opportunities. Given Allen’s experience throughout Florida and the broader national healthcare market, he connected the seller with Sphere Investments, a Miami-based private investment group seeking a stabilized medical asset as part of a 1031 exchange. The buyer was drawn to the property’s established tenant roster, high-quality medical buildouts, above-market contractual rent increases, and long-term growth potential. Originally a Harley-Davidson dealership and showroom, the 23,477-square-foot property was acquired by Rubin Real Estate Advisors for approximately $3.3 million in 2019 and redeveloped into a stabilized medical outpatient facility. Today, the property is 100 percent occupied by Orthopedic Medical Group of Tampa Bay, ChenMed, and Tampa Bay Breathe Free. During the transaction, Allen secured a new 10-year lease extension with Orthopedic Medical Group. The asset traded for approximately $435 per square foot at a 6.4% cap rate. “The firm’s national healthcare platform allowed us to bring meaningful value to both sides of the transaction,” Allen said. “We provided the buyer with detailed market insight around rents, comparable sales, and healthcare investor demand, while leveraging our relationships in the market to help the seller identify a qualified buyer and successfully execute the sale.” For more information, please contact Jake Allen or visit www.matthews.com.

First Vice President & Senior Director Chris Nelson and First Vice President Jacob Castro represented the buyer in the transaction. Following a successful hold period, the seller, Focus Real Estate, elected to sell the property to capitalize on their investment. The buyer, a family partnership completing a 1031 exchange, sought a stabilized multi-tenant industrial asset that aligned with their long-term investment criteria. Leveraging their deep knowledge of the local market and longstanding relationships within the industrial sector, Nelson and Castro secured the property for the buyer, completing the acquisition just 11 days after the closing of the buyer’s downleg. Brickyard Industrial Park is a 37,472-square-foot multi-tenant industrial property located within North County, one of San Diego’s core industrial submarkets. The fully stabilized asset offered the buyer an established investment with no significant capital improvements or repositioning required, supporting its strategy for a long-term hold. “Investor appetite for well-positioned industrial assets remains strong throughout San Diego County,” Nelson said. “The combination of a stabilized tenant base, limited capital requirements, and a strong infill location makes assets like Brickyard particularly attractive to long-term investors.” For more information, please contact Chris Nelson and Jacob Castro or visit www.matthews.com.

At Home Storage self-storage facility Bozeman MSA with blue-roofed buildings and snowy mountains

95,660 NRSF Self-Storage Facility Trades in Bozeman MSA

BOZEMAN, MT—Matthews™, a commercial real estate investment services and technology firm, facilitated the disposition of At Home Storage, located at 1205 Rizzo Lane in Belgrade, Montana. Matthews™ Associate Vice President Mason Gates and Vice President Ben Tracy represented the seller in the transaction, with Brian Brockman as the broker of record. The seller, a local developer, brought the asset to market to capitalize on the investment after developing the property across four phases beginning in 2021. Leveraging their local market expertise and sector knowledge, Gates and Tracy created a competitive marketing process, directly sourcing Storage Rentals of America (SROA) as the buyer. SROA, which already had an established footprint in the surrounding market, identified the asset as a complementary addition to its local portfolio. The transaction ultimately closed with the first buyer placed in escrow, providing the seller with certainty of execution while allowing SROA to expand its existing footprint in the market. Located within the Bozeman MSA, the asset serves the growing Belgrade and Gallatin Valley communities, where Belgrade’s population has increased more than 25 percent since 2020. Positioned near Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport, the property spans approximately 7.02 acres and comprises 95,660 net rentable square feet across 601 units. “This disposition required a specialized, granular approach to achieve the desired outcome for our client. We were highly proactive in our marketing to frame the opportunity in the most accurate and compelling light,” Gates said. “Ultimately, our articulation of the remaining operational upside, grounded in defensible underwriting, established credibility with the buyer early in the transaction.” For more information, please contact Mason Gates and Ben Tracy or visit www.matthews.com.

Matthews™ Sets East County Five-Year Benchmark with Industrial Land Sale

SAN DIEGO, CA—Matthews™, a commercial real estate investment services and technology firm, represented the seller in the disposition of an industrial development site located at 10990 N Woodside Ave in Santee, California. First Vice President & Senior Director Chris Nelson facilitated the transaction, marking the largest sale price for an industrial land site in the East County submarket sold within the last five years. Spanning approximately 13.29 acres, the industrial-zoned site represents one of Southern California’s largest undeveloped infill industrial land parcels. A private family partnership that had operated the property as a drive-in movie theater sold the property to capitalize on its industrial zoning and pursue a strategic capital redeployment. Targeting developers with experience in large-scale industrial projects, Nelson created a competitive bidding environment that generated nearly 30 offers. Nelson identified the buyer, North Palisades Partners, which was attracted to the property’s scale and development potential, with plans to develop approximately 300,000 square feet of logistics space. As market conditions shifted during escrow, Nelson worked to restructure the transaction from an unentitled land sale to a fully entitled closing, reducing entitlement risk for the buyer. The site plan was also reimagined from a single-tenant cross-dock facility to smaller, divisible tenant footprints, better aligning the development with evolving tenant demand and available capital. This strategy provided the seller with greater certainty of execution while allowing the buyer to pursue a more flexible development plan aligned with current market demand. Spanning approximately 13.29 acres, the level, industrial-zoned site represents one of Southern California’s largest undeveloped infill industrial land parcels. The property features frontage along SR-67 and is strategically positioned within the East County submarket, providing connectivity throughout the greater San Diego region and access to a supply-constrained infill industrial market. “Getting a transaction of this scale across the finish line in a changing market required constant problem-solving,” Nelson said. “We remained focused on finding solutions that addressed the priorities of both the seller and buyer as the deal evolved.” For more information, please contact Chris Nelson or visit www.matthews.com.

Matthews™ Closes Disposition of Academy Sports + Outdoors at 98% of List Price

HOUSTON, TX—Matthews™, a commercial real estate investment services and technology firm, represented the seller and buyer in the disposition of Academy Sports + Outdoors, located at 1041 Nolan Street in Brenham, Texas. Associate Vice President Joshua Longoria facilitated the transaction. The seller, a private Houston-based business owner and longtime Matthews™ client, brought the asset to market as a capital redeployment strategy. Drawing on deep market knowledge and longstanding industry relationships, Longoria targeted qualified buyers and ultimately sourced the acquiring REIT through a cold call. The buyer was drawn to the property’s long-term tenancy, recent construction, and position within the Brenham market, which aligned with its fund’s acquisition strategy. Following the four-month process, the transaction closed at 98 percent of the property’s listing price. Located along U.S. Highway 290, the property is strategically positioned between Houston and Austin and benefits from proximity to several major national retailers. Constructed in 2023, the 63,224-square-foot asset sits on approximately 5.97 acres and is leased to Academy Sports + Outdoors under a long-term, corporately guaranteed NNN lease. The lease extends through March 2039 and includes scheduled rental increases and three five-year renewal options, providing long-term tenancy and contractual rent growth. “This deal is a great example of the persistence and hustle that define how we approach transactions at Matthews,” Longoria said. “When challenges came up, we stayed engaged, found solutions, and kept pushing the deal forward until we got it across the finish line.” For more information, please contact Joshua Longoria or visit www.matthews.com.

Sweet Apple Village Trades for First Time in 15 Years

ATLANTA, GA—Matthews™, a commercial real estate investment services and technology firm, represented the buyer and seller in the disposition of Sweet Apple Village, a multi-tenant retail asset, located at 12060 Etris Road in Roswell, Georgia. Senior Vice Presidents Jeff Enck, Kyle Stonis, and Pierce Mayson and Associate Vice President Boris Shilkrot brokered the transaction, marking the highest sale price for a retail property sold within the Roswell/Alpharetta submarket in the last four years. Having executed a value-add initiative throughout its ownership, repeat client Ziff Real Estate Partners engaged Matthews™ to bring the asset to market for the first time in 15 years as part of a broader capital recycling initiative. Leveraging its extensive network of shopping center investors, Matthews™ ran a highly competitive marketing process that generated offers from some of the top professional buyers of unanchored retail. The firm directly sourced the buyer, SouthCoast, which acquired the center as a strategic addition to its portfolio of unanchored retail properties throughout the Southeast. The 98.15% occupied Class A asset features a diverse mix of national and regional, e-commerce-resistant and essential-service tenants across food, beverage, fitness, wellness, medical, education, and other daily-needs uses. No single tenant occupies more than 12% of the total GLA, creating a diversified income stream and reducing the property’s reliance on any one occupant. “We are extremely pleased with the pricing achieved in this transaction,” Enck said. “Unanchored retail continues to attract strong investor demand, particularly for centers with essential-service tenants and smaller, replaceable shop spaces. We saw that firsthand with Sweet Apple Village, where a competitive process drew interest from both private and institutional capital.” Also being marketed for sale by Matthews™ are Jefferson Square in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, Cross Creek in Memphis, Tennessee, and Wisdom Pointe Village in Peachtree City, Georgia.

Brick facade of a 12-unit Bayonne multifamily sale property at 514 Kennedy Boulevard in New Jersey

Bayonne Multifamily Sale Sets 2026 Price-Per-Unit High at $212,500

NEW YORK, NY—Matthews™, a commercial real estate investment services and technology firm, represented the buyer and seller in the $2,550,000 sale of a multifamily property located at 514 Kennedy Boulevard in Bayonne, New Jersey. Senior Vice President & Director David Ferber closed the transaction at 98% of the list price. The closing marked the highest price-per-unit sale for a Bayonne multifamily property with more than six units year to date in 2026 at $212,500 per unit, setting a new pricing benchmark for this segment of the local market. The seller, an experienced multifamily operator who rarely sells, engaged Matthews™ to bring the building to market. Ferber generated four serious offers within two weeks of signing the listing, and directly sourced the buyer. The contract was circulated the next week and signed several weeks later, with the transaction proceeding smoothly to close at just north of a 6.5% cap rate. Comprised of 12 100% free-market apartments, the property offers two- and three-bedroom layouts with 24% potential rental upside. The building features renovated units, on-site laundry, recently replaced boilers and roof, and separately metered units. Located within the Constable Hook submarket, the property is approximately a nine-minute walk from the 22nd Street Light Rail Station, providing convenient access throughout Hudson County and into New York City. “The response came quickly because buyers recognized the combination of free-market rents, current income, and room to grow,” Ferber said. “This seller had built a strong asset and was selective about selling. Securing a buyer so quickly and closing at this price was a strong outcome for ownership and a clear sign of demand for well-positioned Bayonne multifamily properties.” Matthews™ is also marketing four additional Bayonne properties for sale.

SAN DIEGO, CA—Matthews™, a commercial real estate investment services and technology firm, successfully completed the $24,000,000 sale of an industrial property located at 2025 Gillespie Way in El Cajon, California. First Vice President & Senior Director Chris Nelson represented the buyer in the transaction, marking the second-largest industrial sale by price in San Diego’s East County submarket history and the second-largest building ever to sell in El Cajon. Leveraging the firm’s AI-powered proprietary data platform, Artemis, Nelson identified the well-located San Diego industrial asset as a compelling opportunity with three logistics tenants in place and long-term flexibility. Nelson brought the buyer, a limited partnership of several local investors, to the table. During escrow, Nelson conducted an extensive feasibility study to evaluate the building’s flexibility in the event of future vacancy. The analysis determined the property could be divided into spaces as small as approximately 25,000 square feet, significantly expanding the potential tenant pool and mitigating future vacancy risk by reducing reliance on larger users. Located within Gillespie Field Business Park, a master-planned industrial park in San Diego’s East County, the 150,159-square-foot facility is ideally positioned near several of the region’s major transportation corridors, including I-8 and SR 52, 67, and 125. The fully occupied property features 27-foot clear heights, 15 exterior docks, four drive-in doors, six levelers, and heavy power, supporting a range of industrial and distribution uses. With less than 5% of the submarket’s inventory consisting of true dock-high distribution space, the property is one of the market’s few Class A distribution options. “Securing this asset reflects our deep understanding of the local industrial landscape,” Nelson said. “The value here goes beyond the building’s size. Scarcity of product type, flexibility of configuration, and location to relative basis position the buyer for long-term success in a highly competitive market.” For more information, please contact Chris Nelson or visit www.matthews.com.

U-Haul® Acquires Wantage Plaza and CubeSmart in Strategic New Jersey Expansion

NEWARK, NJ—Matthews™, a commercial real estate investment services and technology firm, represented the seller in the successful disposition of Wantage Plaza & CubeSmart (managed), a 116,450-square-foot mixed-use retail and storage center, located at 205 NJ-23 in Wantage, New Jersey. Senior Vice President & Associate Director Patrick Forkin and Vice President Rob Cook facilitated the transaction. The seller, a local private family office, monetized the asset to strategically reposition its holdings through a 1031 exchange. Given the site’s unique offering, Forkin and Cook combined their respective sector expertise and leveraged the firm’s proprietary database to reach a diverse pool of retail and self-storage investors locally and nationally. Generating a competitive bidding environment with multiple offers, Forkin and Cook directly sourced the buyer, AMERCO Real Estate Company (U-Haul). The transaction provided U-Haul an opportunity to expand its market presence through a new location while achieving the seller’s pricing objectives and providing additional time to secure the up-leg of its 1031 exchange. Situated on approximately 13 acres along NJ-23, the property consists of a 34,292-square-foot shopping center and an 82,158-square-foot self-storage facility. The fully leased retail component features a diverse mix of local and regional service, restaurant, and specialty retail tenants on NNN leases, with tenants occupying the center for an average of 19 years. The self-storage facility, previously managed by CubeSmart, includes 527 climate-controlled units and 108 secured RV and boat parking spaces, with additional land available for future self-storage expansion. “Through an extensive marketing process across our retail and self-storage platforms, we generated significant interest and multiple offers from qualified buyers,” Forkin said. “That competition allowed us to negotiate the strongest possible deal terms for our client and ultimately achieve their objectives for the sale.” For more information, please contact Rob Cook and Patrick Forkin or visit www.matthews.com.

Matthews™ Achieves Market-Leading Cap Rate in $12.4M Veterinary Hospital Disposition

PHILADELPHIA, PA—Matthews™, a commercial real estate investment services and technology firm, represented the buyer and seller in the disposition of a veterinary hospital located at 340 Lancaster Ave in Malvern, Pennsylvania. Executive Vice Presidents and Senior Directors Michael Moreno and Rahul Chhajed, Senior Vice President and Director Andrew Evans, and Vice President and Director Tyler Swade brokered the $12,400,000 transaction. The property is leased under a long-term NNN structure to National Veterinary Associates (NVA), one of the country’s largest veterinary care operators, and houses an established specialty and emergency practice that has served the region since 1972. The all-cash transaction resulted in a market-leading cap rate for an NVA-leased veterinary facility. “The veterinary real estate sector continues to demonstrate exceptional liquidity, driven by robust institutional demand for high-caliber operators like NVA,” Moreno said. “The sale of this single-tenant medical facility underscores the ongoing investor confidence in top-tier, recession-resilient veterinary assets.” Spanning 25,477 square feet, the veterinary hospital is positioned within Chester County, an affluent and growing suburban Philadelphia market. Looking to capitalize on strong institutional demand for veterinary real estate, the seller pursued the disposition of the facility. Matthews™ directly sourced a buyer attracted to the strength of the underlying real estate and NVA tenancy. “Leveraging our deep capital markets relationships, we sourced a highly competitive offer from a repeat institutional buyer,” Chhajed said. “This allowed us to deliver an efficient transaction structure and exceptionally attractive pricing terms for the seller.” “As the most active healthcare division in the veterinary real estate space, we continue to see strong appetite for well-located, single-tenant assets backed by premier operators,” Evans said. “This closing in Malvern further reinforces our ability to consistently deliver competitive outcomes in this specialized sector.” Also being marketed for sale by Matthews™ are VCA Old Marple Animal Hospital in Springfield, Pennsylvania, and Sienna Plantation Animal Hospital in Missouri City, Texas. Additional opportunities include Fort Worth Veterinary Specialty & Emergency Hospital in Fort Worth, Texas, and the AmeriVet Veterinary Partners Portfolio in Columbus, Georgia.
