Tranzon Auction Properties will be assisting in the sale of the historic property at 415 Congress St. Owner of the building, Kevin Mattson, general partner for 415 Congress Partners, LLP, said the sale of the important landmark is consistent with the business strategy of the project's parent company, Dirigo Capital Advisors. "We've been discussing how to handle the sale of this property internally for a few years, because of its unique history and disposition. I'm excited to have Tranzon on board - we're ready to hear from the market on this one. I'm looking forward to putting this jewel of a property into new hands."
"The auction is scheduled for September 18," said Mike Carey, vice president at Tranzon. "We just received the assignment. Our team is busy looking through documents provided by the seller and we'll be putting together a full due diligence package for interested parties."
"Although Tranzon sells property at auction throughout the United States, we are fortunate to offer such a significant property in our home city. We have had the opportunity to sell some great Portland landmarks, like Eastland Park. To add 415 Congress is noteworthy," said Tom Saturley, president of Tranzon. "We are extremely pleased to be working with Kevin and his team."
