CHICAGO — Kiser Group has negotiated the sale of 29 condominium units within a 37-unit multifamily property in Chicago’s Uptown neighborhood for $3 million. The asset is located at 850 W. Margate Terrace. The 29 units in the transaction include 10 studios, three junior one-bedroom units, 13 one-bedroom units and three two-bedroom units. Andy Friedman and Jake Parker of Kiser represented both the buyer, Lakepoint Properties, and the seller, an unnamed family trust. According to Kiser, a full-building deconversion will likely occur at a later date since the buyer will own 75 percent of the units. Under the Condominium Property Act in Illinois, a condo building can be sold if 75 percent of ownership is in agreement.

CHICAGO — Interra Realty has brokered the $23.4 million sale of The Cloisters, a 13-story apartment complex in Chicago’s Hyde Park neighborhood. The 86-unit property is located at 5801 S. Dorchester Ave. The sales price of $272,675 per unit represents the highest price for any single multifamily asset in Hyde Park in over a decade, according to Interra. Built in 1928, The Cloisters features a variety of floor plans ranging from one-bedrooms to six-bedrooms. The property gets its name from the covered walkway on one side of a central courtyard. David Goss, Jon Morgan, Joe Smazal and Mark Dykstra of Interra represented the seller, the Baptist Theological Union, which purchased the property from the University of Chicago in 1961. The buyer, Antheus Capital, plans to upgrade units and continue to rent the property to university faculty and staff while expanding to include students and other renters.
