Salt Lake City— Newmark Knight Frank (“NKF”) announces six investment sales in the past six weeks totaling over 260,000 square feet, 30 units and 390 acres with product types ranging from multifamily, industrial, office, retail, education uses and land. The transactions include the sale of the following assets:

  • A 65,688-square-foot single-tenant industrial building at 502 North 400 West in North Salt Lake, Utah;
  • 35,496-square-foot Provo College at 820 North 1450 West in Provo, Utah;

  • a 390.07-acre multifamily/mixed-use land sale in an opportunity zone in West Wendover, Nevada

NKF Executive Managing Director Bryce Blanchard represented the sellers and buyers in four of the six transactions, except, where represented the buyer in the sale of 310 Tower, and represented the seller for Jude Apartments.

In addition to these six transactions, Bryce has three additional investment transactions that are set to close in August; bringing the combined value of these transactions to nearly $125 million.

“The respective buyers of each of these properties demonstrated continuing confidence in the resiliency of the Utah market, across asset types,” said Blanchard. “It is a testament to the strength of Utah’s market fundamentals that there was little to no re-pricing in all of the transactions.”

According to NKF Research, Utah has experienced a lesser slowdown of investor demand due to COVID-19 than many markets, with transaction dollar volume decreasing by 48 percent from second-quarter 2019 to second-quarter 2020 in Utah, compared to a national decrease of 70 percent for the same time period.
