Brad Domenico of Progress Capital arranged a $40 million acquisition loan for the buyer, and Natixis Real Estate Capital was the lender.

Progress Capital said the buyer was particularly attracted to the property’s location, which is just off the Garden State Parkway. The office park recently got several upgrades, including new parking lots, and has tenant amenities such as a lounge and fitness center.

Like other regions, New Jersey’s office market has been severely affected by the pandemic. The availability rate in the first quarter climbed to 21.6 percent, up 4 percentage points compared to the same time last year, according to a report from Avison Young New Jersey.

But office properties are still selling. Most recently, Mack-Cali Realty sold its Short Hills, New Jersey, office portfolio to the Birch Group for $255 million.
