MARIC Finalizes $13.4M Disposition of Six Office Buildings in Southwest Park, Boston Realty Advisors Brokers

Boston, MA, February 23, 2016 (Newswire.com) - Boston Realty Advisors (BRA) is pleased to announce that MARIC, Inc. has completed the final sale of a six-building office portfolio at Southwest Park in Westwood, MA. The portfolio totaling 102,183 SF was sold in six separate transactions and involved six different buyers, five of whom intend to occupy all or a portion of the office space. The average price per square foot for the portfolio was $131/SF with an aggregate sale price of $13.4 million. MARIC was represented by Jeremy Freid, Adam Meixner, Jordan Sneider and Tyler Griffin of Boston Realty Advisors’ Suburban Team for all of the transactions.

MARIC, Inc, a Needham-based owner, manager and developer, acquired the Westwood office building portfolio for $104/SF in 2007. When plans for a mixed-use redevelopment project didn’t materialize, MARIC engaged Boston Realty Advisors to sell the assets.

"With varying lease expirations over the last 18 months, our approach for the disposition of the portfolio was to strategically target end-user buyers. Given the lack of quality owner-user inventory within the Central 128 market, Southwest Park was a tremendous opportunity for owner-occupants," explained Jeremy Freid, Managing Director and Senior Partner who led the sales efforts.
