The transaction was brokered by SVN Affordable/Levental Realty, which focuses on project-based Section 8 and Section 42 housing. Kline is a second-generation, family-owned organization that assembled the portfolio of senior and family affordable assets located in Paterson, Orange, East Orange, Metuchen, Old Bridge, Hazlet and East Windsor.
