Charlotte, NC – November 9, 2016 - CBRE Group, Inc. is pleased to have arranged the sale of Carnegie VII & Ten, located at 5955 and 5605 Carnegie Blvd, respectively, in Charlotte, NC. Patrick Gildea, Will Yowell and Jay O’Meara exclusively represented the sellers, Carnegie Ten LLC, owned by Community Investments Foundation, a supporting organization of Foundation For The Carolinas; and Carnegie VII LLC, in the transaction. The portfolio sold to Boston-based AEW Capital Management, for $40,150,000 on November 8, 2016.
Carnegie VII & Ten are premier Class-A assets located in the SouthPark submarket, which is Charlotte’s most institutional submarket. SouthPark continues to experience strong growth and robust fundamentals—rental rates have increased 12.8% in the last year alone, and absorption over the last four quarters accounts for 23.2% of the total market absorption.
Patrick Gildea commented, “We are excited to see institutional buyers of AEW’s caliber making significant investments in the Charlotte office market. There have been very few core Class-A office sales in SouthPark in the current cycle. This sale is evidence of strong demand from high-quality capital sources.”
“We are proud that properties we developed and managed attracted an outstanding organization in AEW,” said Howard Bissell III, senior vice president and director, Bissell.
Anchor tenants include Citizens Bank, Enpro Industries, and Humana Insurance.
