LIVINGSTON, N.J.– April 19, 2013 – Multi-family investors have a penchant for Central New Jersey’s commuter-friendly locales, as evidenced by the recent $2.215 million sale of 21 units at Winding Woods in Edison.

“Situated just off Route 1 in the heart ofEdison, 18 of this property’s 21 units have been fully renovated within the last five years to include new kitchens and bathrooms,” said Brecher.  “There was tremendous investor interest in this asset due to its prime location, the added value of recent capital improvements and the area’s strong renter population.”
