Repko of Dagar handles 16,000 s/f lease for Social Security Administration

The Dagar Group Ltd., acting as exclusive leasing agent, finalized the lease to relocate the Social Security Administration offices to the Luckey Platt building. The offices moved to a new 16,000 s/f facility constructed in the renovated building which is owned by Alma Realty Corp. of Queens. "When we first received the call two years ago, SSA had very specific guidelines for the relocation," said Glen Repko, CSM, senior VP of Dagar. "I worked with them as they compared other options and this historic Luckey Platt building turned out to be the best fit. Not only does this keep SSA and all its employees in the city of Poughkeepsie, but having them as a tenant really becomes the anchor for the building." In addition to the first floor commercial space, the upper levels of the building contains rental apartments. Tom Collins of Commercial Associates Kingston represented the tenant while Dagar acted as the exclusive leasing agent for the builder owner.

Real estate investing is as much an art as it is a skill. No one can time the market, or the factors that drive it, perfectly. Location, zoning, size, transportation, and neighborhood density give you a baseline for
