Manhattan, NY Invictus Property Advisors closed the sale of a portfolio of properties located on the Upper West Side. The sale price was $8.05 million. Josh Lipton and Andrew Levine of Invictus represented both sides of the transaction.

The package consisted of three landmarked multifamily assets located at 142 West 87th St., 268 West 91st St. and 638 West End Ave. There were a total of 32 residential units of which 18 were free market, with under-market “COVID-19” rents. The purchaser plans on upgrading the units and condition of the buildings to generate rents in line with market.

The purchase price represents a 4.75% cap rate, 11.3x GRM, $429/per s/f, and $251,562 per unit.

The assets were owned and operated by the seller, a private real estate family, for several decades.  The Invictus team accommodated ownership’s request of a swift and targeted marketing campaign in a condensed, three-week period.

According to Invictus, “These metrics represent a cheap basis and a compelling entry-point into the prime Upper West Side submarket.  We expect the assets to stabilize at a much higher rate of return once the investors execute on their business plan.”
