What is off-market real estate?
Off-market real estate refers to properties sold privately without ever being publicly listed. Skyline Properties specializes in off-market investment sales across Manhattan — connecting sellers who require confidentiality with our qualified network of institutional buyers, family offices, and high-net-worth investors. This approach maximizes pricing through targeted outreach while preserving complete discretion throughout the transaction.
What is the biggest deal Skyline Properties has closed?
Skyline's largest closed transaction is the $135M sale of 6 East 43rd Street in October 2025 — a 27-story Midtown tower acquired by Vanbarton Group for conversion to 441 residential units (111 affordable). Brookfield provided a $300M construction loan, and the project uses the 467-m tax abatement program. It is the largest Manhattan office-to-residential conversion of the cycle.
How much commercial real estate has Skyline closed?
Skyline Properties has closed more than $976M across 32+ transactions since the firm relaunched in 2013. Notable deals include 6 East 43rd Street ($135M), 101 Greenwich Street ($105M), 530 West 25th Street ($72M), 236 Fifth Avenue ($65M ground lease), and 131-133 Prince Street ($50M SoHo retail co-op).
Does Skyline Properties work with institutional buyers?
Yes. Skyline maintains active relationships with institutional buyers, family offices, REITs, and international capital. Recent counterparties include Vanbarton Group, Metro Loft, Quantum Pacific (Idan Ofer), Brookfield, Feil Organization, Rigby Asset Management, Kaufman Organization, and Acadia Realty Trust. Our buyer network spans 500+ qualified principals actively seeking Manhattan investment product.
What is the 467-m tax abatement?
The 467-m program is a New York City property tax abatement designed to incentivize converting obsolete office buildings into residential housing, including a required share of affordable units. Skyline structured the 6 East 43rd Street transaction ($135M) to leverage 467-m, enabling Vanbarton Group to deliver 441 apartments (111 affordable) with substantially reduced property tax exposure during the abatement period.
What is a 99-year ground lease?
A 99-year ground lease separates ownership of the land from ownership of the building, with the tenant paying long-term rent for use of the land while retaining control of the improvements. Skyline brokered the $65M 236 Fifth Avenue ground lease to Kaufman Organization in 2017 — a benchmark NoMad transaction. Visit our ground lease advisory page for full structuring details.
How do I sell my Manhattan building off-market?
Start with a confidential conversation with Robert Khodadadian. We will underwrite the asset, deliver a private valuation, and quietly approach pre-qualified buyers from our institutional network — no listing, no public marketing, no signage. Most sellers see executable offers within 30 to 60 days of engagement. Request your free property valuation or contact us directly to begin.
