Bergen County, NJ Multifamily Asset Commands $15 Million



Swan Court Apartments, Rochelle Park, NJ
 ROCHELLE PARK, N.J., Nov. 27, 2012 – Marcus & Millichap Real Estate Investment Services, the nation’s largest real estate investment services firm, has arranged the sale of Swan Court Apartments, a 126-unit garden-style apartment community located in Rochelle Park in Bergen County.

The $15 million sales price equates to a 5.6 percent cap rate and $119,048 per unit.

            Thomas McConnell, CCIM and Kevin McCrann, senior associates in Marcus & Millichap’s New Jersey office, represented the seller, Genwill Co. LLC, the builder, owner and manager of the property. McConnell and McCrann also represented the buyer, Real Estate Growth Advisors LLC, a Highland Park, N.J.-based real estate investment and management company specializing in multifamily assets.

 “The Bergen County multifamily marketplace is an extremely competitive environment with exceptionally high barriers to entry,” says McConnell. “This was the first time the Swan Court Apartments had been available for acquisition and the asset garnered a great deal of attention from public and private investors, both foreign and domestic.”

            “What is unique about this transaction is how infrequently garden apartment complexes with over 100 units trade in Bergen County,” adds McCrann. “You can count on one hand how many similar apartment complexes have sold since 1999.”

Kevin McCrann
 Built in 1964, Swan Court Apartments is located at 235 W. Passaic St. across the street from a 24-hour ShopRite-anchored shopping center and is within walking distance of the Garden State Plaza Mall. The property is ideally located between the Garden State Parkway, State Route 4, State Route 17 and Interstate 80.

            Swan Court Apartments is the 55th investment real estate transaction McConnell and McCrann have closed since the market shifted in 2009. Since then, they have arranged an average of more than one transaction per month.
