New Jersey is known for many things. Tony Soprano. Bruce Springsteen. Political graft. And now, industrial real estate dealmaking. In the past week, two of the largest institutional industrial buyers closed on two sites in the Garden State, paying a combined $72.2 million. Bunny Escava and Isaac Setton at Kassin Sabbagh Realty brokered both transactions.
OAK BROOK, IL – CenterPoint Properties has closed on a low-coverage industrial facility in a highly coveted pocket of the premier Exit 8A submarket: 6 Wheeling Road in Dayton, New Jersey.

The nation's largest commercial real estate convention resumed in Las Vegas this week for the first time since the start of the pandemic and the red-hot Texas real estate market was on full display. “It's great to be back. It’s definitely something to be appreciative of because facetime in person is better than a video or Zoom to make deals,” said Joseph Ash, an investment sales broker with New York City-based Kassin Sabbagh Realty.
Prologis picked up another Queens industrial site, this one for $35 million, adding to its New York City portfolio. Prior to this, the San Francisco-based logistics company had spent $265 million acquiring properties through nine transactions over the past two years in the city. In this latest acquisition, the company purchased a 70,200 square feet development site at 38-21 12th Street in Astoria which has 351,000 square feet of development rights. The deal closed on November 3, 2021 and was recorded on November 16, 2021. This follows Prologis’s $42.7 million purchase of 46-81 Metropolitan Avenue in June as well as the $37.6 million purchase of 18-51 Flushing Avenue in January 2020, and the $51 million purchase of 48-00 Grand Avenue the previous November. TF Cornerstone bought the site in 2018 for $25.5 million. At that time it had a one-story industrial building but according to a recent Pinnacle Realty of New York listing for the site, the buildings have been demolished. Bunny Escava and Isaac Setton of Kassin Sabbagh Realty represented the buyer and seller on the transaction. The Real Deal reported in 2018 that a 152-key hotel was previously rumored as planned for the site, but TF Cornerstone released a statement at the time saying the company has no plans to change the zoning from industrial use. The property has 0 square feet of built space and 351,000 square feet of additional air rights for a total buildable of 351,000 square feet according to PincusCo analysis of city data. The sale price per buildable square foot is $99 per the PincusCo analysis. (The price per square foot analysis is the transaction price divided by square feet as reported in public records and assumes no air rights have been sold.) Plans for a 42,555 square-foot storage (S-2) were filed on September 7, 2018. Within a 400-foot radius of 38-21 12th Street, PincusCo identified three commercial real estate items of interests occurred over the past 24 months. Of those three items, one was for major renovation including a certificate of occupancy change. It was a permit issued on August 5, 2020 for the $1.9 million renovation of 19,669-square-foot S-1 building with no residential units at 38-50 21st Street. Of those three items, two were loans above $5 million totaling $24.2 million. The most recent of the two was United Construction & Development Group which borrowed $15.4 million from Amerant Bank secured by the 19,669-square-foot, one-unit retail building (K1) on 38-50 21st Street on October 9, 2020.
The two-building complex is more than 90 percent leased and generates about $1.45 million in annual rent, according to marketing materials. Verizon is among the largest tenants. Kassin Sabbagh Realty’s Isaac Setton, Bunny Escava and Richard Ades brokered the deal, along with NAI Hanson’s Andrew Somple.

We’re happy we structured a lease which made sense for everyone,” Sitt added.

Morris Sabbagh, president of Kassin Sabbagh Realty, which represents Jokr in its search for 2,500- to 5,000-square-foot U.S. storefronts, begs to differ. “I think that Amazon is most likely aware and would have to drastically shift their business model in order to properly compete,” Sabbagh said. “However, at the rate that Jokr is growing, it would be almost an impossibility for them to be ‘crushed.’”
Nearly 80% of the new retail leases signed by Kassin Sabbagh Realty contain a pandemic clause that they never had before. It specifically outlines what happens if the pandemic comes back, what discount the tenant gets and at what point is the tenant not paying rent if there’s a shutdown, said company president Morris Sabbagh.

“There’s a lot of activity,” says Claude Kolb, director of retail leasing for Kassin Sabbagh Realty. The broker received eight offers on one Second Avenue restaurant space he recently leased, and four offers on another. The biggest factor might be the Second Avenue subway, Mr. Kolb says. The awful construction period leading up to its 2017 opening kept the street’s storefront rents low at a time when rates were doubling in other parts of Manhattan. Asking rents now start at $140 a square foot, he says. On nearby Third Avenue, meanwhile, many landlords are holding out for $200 a square foot or more. “That’s why Third Ave. is still empty,” says Mr. Kolb of its 26% vacancy rate.

The narrative at 162 Delancey Street just shifted from foot to face coverings. Eleven-year-old sneaker store, Get Set, permanently closed shop earlier this year, leaving a void only now filled. The appearance of a banner straddling the marquee announces the latest business – a brick-and-mortar dispensary dedicated solely to selling Personal Protective Equipment. Which is an appropriate location. After all, this corner has maintained similar offerings since the outset of the pandemic, when a wall of face mask vending machines appeared. It turns out, the same company is behind both ventures, RapidMask2Go. The store opens this week at Delancey Street, and will offer a “wide variety of masks, gloves, and hand sanitizer” for purchase.
