Case Study

CHALLENGE:

The Chloe Apartments, a premier legacy asset owned by an ultra-high-net-worth family office, was sold off-market. While under contract with one of the nation’s largest institutional investment owners, a systemic physical defect in the building was discovered during the due diligence process. This defect posed a significant risk to both the property’s value and transaction timeline, necessitating expert intervention and delicate negotiations to address the issue to the satisfaction of both parties.

WHAT WE DID:

After striking a deal between buyer and seller – and upon discovery of the defect – Dylan Simon, worked with both parties to ensure a collaborative and transparent resolution. Upon discovering the defect, multiple experts were engaged to diagnose and quantify the scope of the issue. Acting as a bridge between buyer and seller, we facilitated complex negotiations that balanced the interests of both parties.

RESULT:

Despite challenges uncovered in the sales process, the property sold for $54 million, an exceptional price for the seller. This outcome successfully preserved significant seller value and structured a solution that the buyer found acceptable, demonstrating the value of expert representation in navigating high-stakes transactions.
