Sejdi said, “The property’s several free market units made it extremely appealing to the buyer. The Bronx has seen a surge in both property value and rental prices recently, and free market units allow the buyers to realize almost immediate upside.”

The main public transportation hubs are the B & D trains along Tremont Ave., the Tremont Metro-North railroad station and the BxM4 bus.
