CHERRY HILL, NJ—Persistence led local commercial broker Jason Starkman to the successful closing of an unusual “fractured” ownership sale in a Cherry Hill condominium property, the Sussex House Condominiums, a 77-unit condo building on Kings Highway. The new owner, Sela Properties, also has properties in Merchantville and Blackwood, NJ.

The two firms parted ways a few years later, and AIG ended up owning the portfolio of condos.
“They were interested in selling that package of condominium units.
