Sabesan of CBC Alliance brokers $27 million sale of six mixed-use buildings

Representing both buyers and seller, Peter Sabesan, principal, Coldwell Banker Commercial Alliance (CBC Alliance), has arranged the sale of six mixed-use buildings and vacant lots in the Williamsburg section of the city for $27 million.

The buyers comprised a group of investors led by Waterbridge Capital LLC. The seller was 170 South First Street, LLC.
