175 Center Street - West Haven, CT

West Haven, CT The Oak & Avery Group has completed the sale of two properties, 175 Center St., West Haven and 55-59 Irving St., New Haven, six-unit and eight-unit multifamily properties, respectively. The properties sold for a total of $1.215 million. Anthony Watkins, president, and Ian Rawlinson, associate, represented the sellers and the buyers in both trades. 

55-59 Irving Street - New Haven, CT

175 Center was sold by Steve Beresner to Connecticut Property Investment Group for $550,000.

55-59 Irving St. was sold by Frank Zodl to Mandy Management LLC for $665,000.

“Although separate sellers and buyers, both deals were conducted off-market and closed in 30 days. Lower inventory in the New Haven market is driving investors to be more aggressive as the race to deploy cheap capital continues,” said Watkins.
