Mid-America Real Estate Corporation’s Investment Sales Group recently brokered the sale of Crystal Point Shopping Center, located in the northwest suburban Chicago community of Crystal Lake, Illinois. The 317,006-square-foot center was sold to PMAT Real Estate Investments, marking their 100th transaction since its inception in 2003.

Crystal Point is a strong performing, 87% leased grocery-anchored shopping center featuring a vacant Bed Bath & Beyond box for near term upside potential.  The center is located along highly trafficked Northwest Highway with an outstanding demographic profile featuring 123,000 residents with average household incomes of $134,000 within a 5-mile radius of the center.  Crystal Point boasts a submarket dominant tenant roster featuring TJ Maxx, Best Buy, Ross Dress for Less, The Fresh Market, Ulta, Steinhafels Furniture, and Cost Plus World Market, along with outlot users such as Starbucks, Panera, Potbelly, Jamba Juice, Five Guys, and Helzberg Diamonds.

Mid-America Real Estate Corporation Principals Ben Wineman, Rick Drogosz, and Joe Girardi were the exclusive brokers in the transaction on behalf of IRC Retail Centers/DRA Advisors. The property was managed by Pine Tree.
