Azad Property Group set to open doors to N.J. office

Azad Property Group revealed the opening of their New Jersey branch. After opening their N.Y.C. offices less than a year ago and just closing a JV deal in the village, they are ready to tackle the N.J. market. Heading the N.J. office will be lead partner Larry Szablewski. He brings more than 22 years of experience in real estate marketing, sales, servicing and consulting. "We are very active in acquiring off-market shopping centers for our investors in the Northeast," said Mansour Tabibnia, partner at Azad Property Group. "New Jersey has one of the largest inventories of these types of properties, so opening up a branch and bringing on Larry made sense in terms of bringing the greatest diversity of real estate options to our investors." Barry Farchi, also a partner at Azad Property group, believes that "with Larry's extensive experience and knowledge, other types of properties such as multi-families and office towers will soon follow." He added that Azad's "international investors are itching for great deals not only in the city but across the river, as well." Azad Property Group will be located in Central Jersey in Piscataway.

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
