The first Hoboken property consists of 1.033 acres of vacant land and is located adjacent to the light rail station. Davidovic co-represented the seller and purchaser.
"Hoboken is a great location for future development," said Davidovic. "With such a demand for rentals in Hoboken, it has become one of the most desirable markets in the state."
The second Hoboken property consists of vacant warehouse space on six lots in the western portion of Hoboken. Davidovic also co-represented the seller and purchaser.
The Elizabeth property consists of a five-story elevator building with 55 residential units. The property is centrally located near the Elmora section of Elizabeth and Kean University within close proximity to major highways and public transportation.

The recently-landscaped property is located in desirable Bergen County close to Fort Lee and the George Washington Bridge.
