JLL Capital Markets arranges sale of Riverhead Centre in Riverhead, NY

Jose Cruz
 Riverhead, NY, April 24, 2023 JLL Capital Markets has closed the sale of the nine-building, 395,000-square-foot, grocery-anchored Riverhead Centre on Long Island in Riverhead, Suffolk County, New York.

The price was not disclosed.

 

JLL represented the seller, AFL-CIO Building Investment Trust advised by PNC Realty Investors, and procured the buyer, Prestige Properties & Development Company Incorporated.

 

The JLL Capital Markets Retail Investment Sales and Advisory Team was led by Jose Cruz, Kevin O’Hearn, J.B. Bruno and Mark Belenky.


 

Kevin O’Hearn
“The demand for well-located, grocery-anchored retail continues to remain strong in the suburban New York Area.  Investors liked Riverhead Centre given the stability of the cash flow as well as the future upside rent growth,” stated Cruz

 

Built in 2003, the 99-percent-leased property is highlighted by ShopRite, which replaced a Waldbaums in 2018 and is contracted under a long-term lease.

 

 The ShopRite ranks as the most visited grocer in the immediate area (Source: placer.ai). Riverhead Centre is also anchored by Home Depot, which has been in occupancy at the Property for 20 years and yields 910,000 annual visits (Source: placer.ai).

 

Additional notable tenants include Bed Bath & Beyond, Best Buy, Petco, Michaels, DSW Shoe Warehouse, Famous Footwear, Barnes & Noble, Ashley Home Store and IHOP.

 

 In total, 82% of the GLA is occupied by national tenants, and the property benefits from 9.3 years of remaining WALT.  Additionally, the property was purchased free and clear of any existing financing.


Michaels

Situated on approximately 50 acres at 1430-1550 Old Country Rd., Riverhead Centre sits at a signalized intersection in the heart of the Riverhead retail corridor with approximately 2,003 feet of frontage along Old Country Road.

 

The property is exposed to an impressive traffic count of approximately 31,000 vehicles per day, and an average household income of $153,057 within Suffolk County.


J.B. Bruno
The center is also only one mile from both I-495/LIE and NY State Route 25, accessible by an affluent shopper base in the Hamptons and North Fork.

 

.“Prestige Properties specializes in the acquisition, development and management of institutional-quality retail assets,” said CEO of Prestige Properties, Sam Shalem.

 

 “Riverhead Centre is a great addition to our more than 6.5 million square feet of retail properties under ownership in the NY, NJ, PA, MA, CT NC and FL markets.”

Keyes/Illustrated Luxury Report: South Florida Sees Notable Incremental Gains in Q1 2023

 

Christina Pappas

MIAMI and PALM BEACH, FL – South Florida’s luxury residential market recorded significant quarterly gains in the past three months as the region continues to move forward from the pandemic-era frenzy, according to The Keyes Company and Illustrated Properties’ new Luxury Report.

The first-quarter metrics hint at an active remainder of 2023.

Mike Pappas

Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach counties, the Treasure Coast and Southwest Florida collectively recorded a 19.7% year-over-year decline in $1 million-and-up single-family sales to 2,077 in the first quarter of 2023, while the high-end condo market posted a 32.7% year-over-year drop in transactions.


However, the region’s single-family sector had a 16.9% quarter-to-quarter gain in $1 million-and-up sales, from 1,776 to 2,077.

 Luxury condo transactions jumped from 812 in the fourth quarter of 2022 to 1,178 in the first quarter of 2023.

All five geographic areas had transaction upticks in both sectors during that timeframe.

“Near-term market conditions are demonstrably improving in the luxury sector,” Keyes President Christina Pappas said. “The consistency of these quarterly increases, from Miami-Dade County to Southwest Florida and the Treasure Coast, shows that our region is accommodating the different preferences of a wide range of high-end buyers.”



The Treasure Coast was the only geographic area covered in this report to generate a year-over-year gain in luxury single-family sales.


That is largely driven by
Stuart, which had substantial luxury transaction and pricing gains. Southwest Florida had an encouraging jump of 35.6% year-over-year to 396 in the first quarter of 2023 and a 152.2% surge when compared with the previous quarter.




“There is now a growing comfort shared by luxury sellers and buyers about the state of the South Florida’s market,” Keyes/Illustrated CEO Mike Pappas said. “That bodes well for the rest of 2023, and we should see year-over-year increases return in upcoming quarters.”

Other notable findings in the first quarter luxury report include:

  • Miami-Dade County’s $1 million-and-up single-family sales climbed 5.9% from the fourth quarter of 2022 to 430 completed transactions in the first quarter. For high-end condos, sales increased by 3.8% to 411 during the same span.
  •  
  • Coral Gables stood out as the most active high-end single-family market, with $1 million-and-up transactions jumping from 55 in the fourth quarter to 84 in the first quarter – and the median sales price growing 7.2% during that timeframe.
  •  
  • Miami Beach had the most luxury condo sales activity in the county, with 104 completed sales (up 25.3% from the fourth quarter)
  •  
  • After being the only geographic area covered in the report to post year-over-year transaction increases for both luxury single-family homes and condominiums in 2022, Broward County joined its neighbors by recording year-over-year declines in the first quarter of 2023.
  •  
  •  However, $1 million-and-up single-family transactions rose by 6.4% (347 sales) quarter-to-quarter, and luxury condo sales surged by 21.6% (118 sales) in the same timeframe
  •  
  • Palm Beach County high-end condo sales skyrocketed by 52.1% from the fourth quarter of 2022 to the first quarter of 2023 (219 completed transactions), while $1 million-and-up single-family sales increased by 13.4% in the same span (645 sales). The average luxury condo price per square foot rose 11.8% year-over-year to $1,018.


  •  
  • The Boca Raton/Delray Beach submarket more than tripled the next-highest submarket with 76 first-quarter condo closings at or above $1 million.
  •  
  • The same holds true for luxury single-family, with Boca Raton/Delray Beach combining for 265 first-quarter sales (Jupiter’s 83 transactions ranked as the county’s second-highest)
