According to Chez Eider, there was great collaboration among the team involved in this deal. Despite the perception that employees are not returning to the office, there is still a demand for cash-flowing office investments. This could be attributed to the preference for in-person medical office visits and the need for teams to collaborate effectively. Montclair's premier demographics and proximity to major highways and New York City also make it an attractive location for investors.

The property is a rare 100% occupied medical office building and is located just three blocks from Montclair's Central Business District. All tenants in the building have annual rent increases, and the buyer is a local entity. The financing for the transaction was provided by a community bank.

Overall, this transaction showcases the continued demand for office investments and the resilience of certain property types, such as medical offices, during the COVID recovery period.
