New York City investment sales through August 2018

A roundup of news and data on the commercial market

Manhattan investment sales declined sharply in August, with just over $1.4 billion recorded, the lowest this year. The nearly 60 percent drop from July continued a pattern of peaks and valleys over the past six months. The top sale was of Savanna’s newly built Chelsea540 office building to Dallas-based Ramrock Real Estate for $257 million. In Brooklyn, the most expensive sale went to affordable-housing developer Breaking Ground, which bought a development site at 90 Sands Street from RFR Realty for $170 million. Total sales in the borough came to $775 million, continuing a gradual three-month rise after large spikes in April and May.
