Off-Market 18-Unit Oakland Sale: Broker Relationships Unlock Exit from Operational Gridlock

Oakland, CA

12,380

sq.ft

Overview

This 18-unit Oakland asset had appreciated, but operational friction—partner misalignment and day-to-day inefficiencies—were weighing on long-term value. The client couldn’t take it to market due to business politics, so we ran a discreet, broker-focused campaign through private channels. I packaged the property with drone visuals, professionally designed materials, and a defensible cap rate backed by detailed lease audits, cost normalization, and banked rent analysis—no fluff, no gaps. The listing never went public. A known broker in my network surfaced a serious buyer. The initial offer helped unlock internal buy-in, and we moved to contract quickly. After 45 days in escrow, the asset sold cleanly at a price that freed capital for my client to reposition into better-aligned holdings. If internal dynamics, partner politics, or ops friction are stopping you from selling—we’ll get your exit moving. Quietly. Cleanly. Strategically.
