Sears Tower in Chicago

Real Estate Alert, March 17, 2004

An investment group involving New York investors Jeffrey Fell and Lloyd Goldman agreed to purchase the 3.8 million-square-foot Sears Tower in downtown Chicago for about $835 million, or $220/sf. At that price, the buyers' initial yield would be about 7.8%. The partners made a pre-emptive offer about a month before formal offers were due.

Eastdil Realty brokered the listing on behalf of Metropolitan Life, which took title to the building last August from Trizec Properties. The famed 110-story tower is 89% occupied. Beacon Capital also chased the deal.
