Manhattan has made deal makers smile again. The borough captured three of four investment sales recorded last week in the $10 million to $30 million range.

Premier Equities bought a hotel in Tribeca that closed during the pandemic, a West Village rental building sold for just 11 percent more than it did in 2015 and a 96-unit apartment building traded hands in Hudson Heights.

The word of the week in Queens was “warehouse,” as strong industrial sales continued there.

Here are more details on mid-market investment sales for the week ending May 28. The week recorded a total sales volume of $60.25 million, just below the prior week’s total of $63.3 million for four investment sales.
