"The seller was a family that demanded absolute confidentiality as well as certainty of the buyer's ability to execute on the transaction. The Fairhaven portfolio provided a purchaser with the extremely rare opportunity to acquire a high quality Long Island multifamily portfolio with superior locations. Having completed a significant portfolio transaction previously with Eagle Rock, I knew they were the perfect buyer for the Fairhaven portfolio. Mark and Adam Seelig along with their entire team have consistently demonstrated the unique ability to operate in the highly sophisticated, professional manner of an institutional client while providing the responsiveness, creativity and advantages of an entrepreneurial private group. Eagle Rock's entire team proactively addressed the challenges and complexity of executing a transaction of this magnitude in the current real estate climate. Once again, Eagle Rock completed a transaction consistent with their word; I expect their future to be very bright as they continue to expand their portfolio." Eagle Rock's CEO and co-founder, Mark Seelig said, "We are extremely pleased to have been able to close the purchase of the prestigious Fairhaven Apartments portfolio. Fairhaven has been a highly respected name in the Long Island community for nearly 50 years. We look forward to continuing that excellent reputation and in bringing the communities and their residents into the Eagle Rock family. That we were able to close an acquisition of this magnitude in a quiet and confidential manner was truly an accomplishment."
