 NEW YORK, NY – June 23, 2015 – HFF announced today that it has closed the $14.225 million sale of 2217 Caton Avenue, a 24,214-square-foot mixed-use building in Brooklyn’s Prospect-Lefferts Gardens neighborhood.

HFF marketed the asset on behalf of the seller, Second City Real Estate.  Caton Acquisition Partners, LLC purchased the asset free and clear of existing debt.  HFF previously assisted the seller in securing financing for the property in January 2014.

2217 Caton Avenue is located at the intersection of Caton and Bedford Avenues, approximately four blocks from the Church Avenue subway station.

 Built as condominiums in 2010, the nine-story property has 29 two-bedroom residential rental units that are 97 percent leased and 2,698 square feet of ground floor retail space, which is fully occupied by a local daycare center.  

The property is near Prospect Park and benefits from a 421-a and ICIP tax abatement. 

The HFF investment sales team was led by managing directors Rob Rizzi and Jeff Julien, associate director Rob Hinckley and real estate analyst Steven Rutman.“Second City Real Estate executed an exceptional repositioning strategy, getting into a prime Brooklyn neighborhood early in the cycle, substantially improving the asset’s operations and creating impressive increases in profitability and ultimately value,” said Rizzi.
