Gebroe-Hammer Associates

Gebroe-Hammer Associates has built its multifamily investment brokerage business and reputation during the past 48 years on long-term client relationships — a practice that came into play recently when we arranged the $19.8M off-market sale of Grand Lee Apartments in Leonia.

Newmark has been fortunate to be involved in several award-winning large office transactions in the Garden State recently.

Also in Parsippany, we completed Avis Budget Group’s new U.S. headquarters transaction in excess of 150,000 SF. Significant current landlord representation assignments in the office sector include 2 Gatehall Plaza (on behalf of owner SRG2 Partners LLC) in Parsippany, NJ; Glenpointe (on behalf of owner Alfred Sanzari Enterprises) in Teaneck, NJ; River Centre (on behalf of owner Paramount Realty) in Red Bank, NJ; Woodbridge Corporate Plaza (on behalf of owner Northeast Capital Group) in Iselin, NJ; and many other prominent office properties.
