Edge Brokers $15.7M Sale of Flex Building in Metro D.C.

LAUREL, MD. — Edge has brokered the $15.7 million sale of a 106,000-square-foot flex warehouse and office building in Laurel. The building was constructed in 1984 as the headquarters for Ritz Camera, which filed for bankruptcy in 2012. Earlier this year, Edge brokered a 37,000-square-foot lease at the property for Advanced Collision, an auto body repair shop. Other tenants at the time of sale included Rolling Green Landscaping and Sans Institute. Edge handled leasing activities on behalf of the seller, an affiliate of Bethesda, Md.-based Bristol Capital Corp., since 2016. The building is located 17 miles northeast of downtown Washington, D.C. Joe Friedman, Kenneth Fellows and Rob Pugh of Edge represented the seller in the transaction. The team also procured the buyer, an undisclosed 1031 exchange investor that Mid-Pacific Advisors represented in the sale.
