MIDDLETOWN, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Marcus & Millichap (MMI: NYSE) today announced its Institutional Property Advisors (IPA) division has arranged the sale of Madison Chestnut Hill and Madison Northwoods, a two-property, 650-unit multifamily portfolio located in the Westlake District of Middletown, Conn. The $92.5 million sales price equates to over $142,000 per unit.

“The demographics of the district’s targeted tenant base, the assets’ proximity to major employment hubs, and a competitive rental market suggests that this portfolio provides the new owner with an opportunity to realize significant revenue upside through modest enhancements to units, common areas and amenities,” said Victor Nolletti, an IPA executive director.

“Middletown multifamily assets have a track record of positive rent growth and value appreciation that outpaces most other markets in the region,” added IPA executive director Steve Witten.

Nolletti, Witten, and IPA senior director Still Hunter head the IPA Northeast & Florida team, who along with Eric Pentore, IPA associate, represented the seller, Chestnut Hill and Northwoods Apartment Associates LLC. The IPA Northeast & Florida team also procured the buyer, Gateway Realty Holdings LTD.

The properties are 10 minutes south of downtown Hartford and 20 minutes north of New Haven’s central business district. Middletown has a large national employment base that includes Pratt & Whitney, Middlesex Mutual Assurance Co., Aerospace Techniques Inc., Middlesex Hospital, MiddleOak and Wesleyan University.
