SPECIAL USE/HARD-TO-VALUE ASSETS

A&G is able to utilize decades of experience to design custom marketing and structured sales programs for properties that are considered difficult to value by their non-conforming use, spot zoning, or other impediments to their highest and best use. Applying these tools guides the right buyers for educational, medical, governmental, institutional, or retail properties that don’t lend themselves to a conventional sales process. This ensures a fair and transparent selling process for buyers and sellers alike, overcoming objections from both parties as to the viability of the opportunity. The A&G structured sales process can also foster cooperation with local municipalities where a re-zoning or an adaptive use may be more attractive to their constituents and thereby attain a wider universe of bidders; resulting in higher sales price. These properties may be hard to value, but to us, they are not hard to sell.

FOUNDER OF AUNTIE ANNE'S PRETZELS, PA, PORTFOLIO

Commercial portfolio included a community center that supported the local Amish community, three commercial buildings totaling over 150,000 square feet, and over 90 acres of development land.
The estate and its advisors chose a national promoted and structured sealed bid deadline sale in order to have a year-end sale, choose the appropriate buyer, and to maximize price (large pricing variation depending on use).
All properties were sold by year-end at approved pricing.

170 acres in Staatsburg, NY, in the Mid-Hudson River Valley owned by a prominent real estate family who had owned the land for over two decades.
The property featured a 13-acre lake, the former Staatsburg Reservoir, as well as a NY State DEC regulated dam and spillway, which had an effect on the overall value of the property as well as the topography of the land, which made it unsuitable for large scale development.
We ran a sealed bid sale that garnered contracts from groups throughout the country with varied desired uses.
