Welcome to 1015 Summit Ave., home to four of NYC’s least-expensive abodes for sale.

According to listings portal StreetEasy, prices in the 38-unit building range from a $60,000 studio — which the site lists as the city’s cheapest apartment — to a $75,000 one-bedroom. At least six apartments there have listed since August, offering buyers a shockingly low-priced chance to own property in a city where people go broke to live in a shoebox.

“The minute I saw the listing and I saw that there was an open house, I went,” said Jade Amaker, 45, who works in the continuing medical education office at Columbia University and lives in Harlem. In September, she visited a one-bedroom unit in the building, in Highbridge, The Bronx. Just a week later, she submitted her $79,000 offer and is on track to close in January.

The Atlanta-based real estate investment firm, QR Capital, sold the former Chatham Apartments building to the Savannah College of Art and Design last week for almost $39 million, according to the Savannah Agenda.

The investment firm bought the property in 2019 for $25.6 million from Jacksonville, Fla.-based Chatham Apartments, LLC. At the time, Daniel Malino of QR Capital told the Savannah Morning News that they planned to renovate the building with work concluding in late 2020 or early 2021.

According to the company’s website, they mainly seek to acquire, renovate and operate conventional multifamily and student housing projects.

The building, which was constructed in 1952, includes 233 units and many of the residents receive housing assistance. As noted in a recent City Talk column, the last of the residents had moved out of the apartment

Aimco puts Evanston Place apartments near Northwestern University up for sale

Evanston Place, which opened in 1989, is one of the biggest multifamily properties in suburban Chicago to hit the market in 2020, an extremely slow year for large apartment sales. The coronavirus pandemic has disrupted the market, and many investors remain wary of big deals.

But the suburbs have been surprisingly stable, with occupancies and rents holding steady. The coronavirus and civil unrest over the summer have not diminished the appeal of suburban living as they have in the city. Some suburban properties are even gaining tenants who have left Chicago.

Evanston Place’s biggest plus: its location. The nine-story building sits on the edge of downtown Evanston, a short walk to lakefront parks and beaches, kitty-corner from a Whole Foods Market and a block from the gates of the Northwestern campus, a big driver of demand for apartments.

A new owner could boost the property’s income and value by renovating

OneRoof’s Need to Know series with Frances Cook looks at how first home buyers can play to their strengths.

You might have expected to see more hustle and bustle.

With each step at Saturday’s open home viewing, the developers and prospective buyers were hastening Point Chevalier’s transformation from suburban homes and lemon tree backyards to mushrooming multi-storey apartments.

Yet they appeared in no rush as they inspected the two side-by-side properties for sale at 17 and 19 Walmer Rd.

They instead talked quietly with Harcourts selling agents David Findlay and Aman Gulia, discussing project cost numbers, development possibilities and the sale prices of nearby homes.

They arrived in top-of-the-line Teslas, on a motorbike and even old hatchbacks.

Chicago developer eyes apartments for Fulton Market

3 months ago
[email protected]_84

That vision for the property at the southwest corner of Fulton Street and Racine Avenue could be a key test for 27th Ward Ald. Walter Burnett’s new policy on residential development in Fulton Market north of Lake Street. Burnett has previously cited the pitfalls of future residents opposing new commercial development as a reason for blocking apartment buildings in that area. But in May he said he would lift his ban to try to stoke new investor interest in the neighborhood amid the COVID-19 crisis.

Given the density of office buildings in the area and companies including Google, McDonald’s and Mondelez International establishing it as a corporate destination, the buyers were willing to pay a big number for the chance to add apartments to the mix.

The sale price is roughly seven times the $2.7 million that the seller, Atlanta-based real estate firm Drapac Capital Partners, paid for the property

Instead of using that area, the city plans to buy the property at 326 Main St. from the David S. Dennison and Carol H. Dennison Revocable Trust and demolish that building for the space he needs to build the apartments.

ExploreDeveloper: No, apartments won’t work in Hamilton Municipal Building

The city consulted with historic experts who believe the building at 326 Main St. has much less historic value than the duplex does, partly because it has been modified through the years, City Manager Joshua Smith said.

It has a brick office area on the front of it and less historic value, he added.

Because a variety of people expressed interest in the double residence, the city plans to ask would-be buyers of it how they would use it. City officials plan to use the $100,000 from the sale of that building to purchase 326 Main St.

Apartments may be next trouble spot for property investors

3 months ago
[email protected]_84

Where is the next area of pain for commercial property markets? Ask analysts, investors and even the debt collectors responsible for chasing unpaid mortgages and there is usually one common answer: apartment buildings. 

An end to the US government’s stimulus programmes, they say, alongside a moratorium on landlords evicting tenants, will lead to severe losses for investors. 

The logic is straightforward. Tenants, deprived of government stimulus, are finding it harder to pay their rent. Landlords in turn will have less income to pay their mortgages. This is then amplified by eviction moratoriums in many states, which prevent landlords booting out tenants who can’t pay their rent. 

Finally, reduced payments will hit investors that ultimately finance the properties through the commercial mortgage-backed securities market, where property loans are bundled together to back payments on new bonds. But, crucially, this hasn’t happened yet.

The first round of government stimulus, which included an
