“Our companies have the same goal: to focus on under-utilized sites with tremendous potential and convert them to the best possible use for investors,” Jumani says, noting that the firms are also joint venturing the redevelopment of the former Roche Diagnostics property, a 20-acre site in Belleville, NJ.

The self-storage facility is part of Totowa Business Center, a 225,000-square-foot office park. The center, just 17 miles from Manhattan, is situated at a busy intersection of I-80 and routes 46 and 23.

Built in 1962 and redeveloped in 1998, Tulfra acquired the property from a New York investment group in 2015. Tulfra implemented more than $5 million in improvements since acquiring the property.

In addition to the self-storage facility, the building houses several industrial condominiums. Tyco, whose space was recently bought by an investor for $185 per square foot; RDD Associates Food Brokers; and Emergence Church, which operates a day care center and a sanctuary out of the facility.

“The demand for this type of mixed-use commercial space in North Jersey is growing,” Jumani says.
