Shragaei of GFI secures $1.95 million sale of 255 Himrod St.

GFI Realty Services, Inc. arranged the sale of 255 Himrod St., a vacant fully renovated three-story walk up apartment building located in the Bushwick section of Brooklyn for $1.95 million or $325k per unit.

The buyer and seller are both local investors. "It was a sensitive deal with complicated terms that required a discerning investor," Shragaei said. "Our first call was to a buyer who delivered a signed contract with a hard deposit to the seller's office within 24 hours." The property is located in close proximity to Myrtle Avenue, a major commercial corridor, and a few blocks from the L train.
