The seller of the four-story building at 218 25th Street, Edward English, owned the property since 1985. Pinnacle financed the acquisition with a $5 million mortgage from New York Community Group.

3.) Arker Company bought a 52-unit apartment building in Crown Heights from Scott Jaffee’s Metropolitan Realty Group. Arker paid $12.8 million for the six-story building at 959 St. Marks Place. Jaffee paid $1.9 million in 2010. The acquisition for the affordable housing building was funded partly with government funding. Arker is developing an affordable-housing megacomplex in East New York, which will have up to 1,169 units when completed.
