BURLINGTON/CAMDEN/GLOUCESTER COUNTY, NJ—As new multi-family development remains rare in South Jersey's low-vacancy rate suburbs, long-time and relatively new owners have been tapping Gebroe-Hammer Associates to market high-unit-density, pre-1980s-era garden-style apartments. The result: three recent sales in the Burlington, Camden West and Gloucester County submarkets totaling 896 units sold for a combined $88.85 million. Gebroe-Hammer sales associate Eli Herskowitz and managing director Joseph Brecher represented the seller and found the buyer for the $12 million off-market sale of Burlington Court Apartments in Burlington City, NJ (pictured). Located at 870 E. Route 130 North, the 201-unit complex features a mix of one- and two-bedroom units less than 21 miles from Center City, Philadelphia, and 15 miles from Trenton. Within the Camden West submarket—the second-strongest Philadelphia-metro submarket behind Center City—the Brecher/Herskowitz team also arranged the $12.25 million sale of a 216-unit garden-apartment complex. Rounding out Gebroe-Hammer's latest flurry of South Jersey activity was the $64.6 million sale of 443 units in Gloucester County.
