CHICAGO, IL - Kiser Group, Chicago’s leading mid-market multifamily brokerage firm, recently brokered a four-building portfolio and three other multifamily buildings on Chicago’s south side. With the second quarter closed, Senior Director Noah Birk and Director Aaron Sklar have 30 buildings either sold or under contract throughout south side neighborhoods.
“The values of apartment buildings on the south side have appreciated rapidly, and sale velocity is not slowing down,” said Senior Director Noah Birk. “Looking at sale data of the nearly 80 south side apartment buildings we’ve sold in the last 18 months, we’re seeing a significant trend of out-of-state investors being attracted to this market.”
