Mark Knowlton, associate advisor, Jim Knowlton, owner/principal, and Chris Knowlton, vice president, all with Pinnacle Real Estate Advisors, represented both the undisclosed buyer and seller in the transaction.
“This transaction is a testament to our team’s patience and persistence in successfully navigating today’s challenging market to get a deal to the closing table,” said Mark Knowlton. “We were under contract with two separate buyers and went through three lenders to be able to close this transaction and achieve both the buyer’s and seller’s goals in transitioning this legacy asset. The buyer plans on renovating the units, raising rents, and putting Cornerstone into the building for management, while the sellers plan on doing a 1031 into a DST.”
