Medipower Overseas in $26.6M Deal for Two Grocery-Anchored Pennsylvania Centers

Madeira Plaza, Reading, PA

READING AND POTTSTOWN, PA—Medipower Overseas Co., a multinational real estate group, has acquired North End Shopping Center , a 102,905 square-foot neighborhood center located in Pottstown, PA, and Madeira Plaza , a 164,917 square-foot community center in Reading, PA, from SIN Ventures for $26.55 million. Brad Nathanson, executive vice president with CBRE’s Capital Markets Group, represented the seller and identified the buyer in the transaction. “Both shopping centers are well performing, in-fill mature grocery anchored centers, the focus of what most investors want in today’s marketplace,” says Nathanson. “The attraction to the assets came from the stability of the historical occupancy of the grocery anchors for over 13 years coupled with the continued growth of the housing markets in Western Montgomery County and Berks County along the Route 422 corridor.”
