Ariel Property Advisors close $6.2 million sale of industrial property

Staten Island, NY Ariel Property Advisors has arranged the sale of a 36,602 s/f industrial warehouse property at 572 Richmond Tr. for $6.225 million, which equates to $170 per s/f. 

The sale was arranged by an Ariel team including Sean Kelly, partner; and Stephen Vorvolakos, director, investment sales. The seller in the transaction was Zenith Industrial Chemicals and the buyer was Zion Judaica. 

“As demand for industrial, factory, warehouse and outdoor storage space continues to rise, pricing metrics in markets like Brooklyn have increased by more than 50 percent, leading investors and owner-users to look elsewhere,” said Kelly. “Staten Island has become an attractive alternative market for those looking for well-situated properties at affordable prices.” 

The one-story industrial warehouse property has M3-1 zoning and consists of five loading bays, approximately 24-foot ceiling heights and 38-foot and 55-foot horizontal column spacing. Situated on the North Shore section of Staten Island along the Saint George Waterfront, the industrial building provides easy access to Brooklyn, the outer boroughs and New Jersey via the Verrazano Bridge, Bayonne Bridge and the Goethals Bridge. In addition, it is near the Staten Island Ferry. 

The property recently underwent significant renovations including the installation of new gas heating units, LED lighting, exterior and interior improvements and roof repairs.

The death of the generic offering memorandum: What buyers expect in 2025 - by Kimberly Zar Bloorian

There was a time when an offering memorandum (OM) was pretty bare bones, some photos, a few bullet points on income, and a rent roll thrown in at the back. That used to get the job done. Not anymore. In 2025, buyers are sharper, faster, and more selective. They’re looking
