NEW YORK, N.Y. – Sheldon Good & Company, a Racebrook portfolio company, will conduct a one-day real estate auction for six multi-family buildings located in Plainfield, N.J. that have been entered into Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings.
The well-located assets are being sold at auction as part of the Chapter 11 bankruptcy of select rental complexes owned and operated by Plainfield, N.J.-based Connolly Properties.
The buildings will be sold separately and “Absolute,” regardless of price, subject to US Bankruptcy Court approval, according to Jeffrey Hubbard, Senior Managing Director for Sheldon Good & Company, a Racebrook Portfolio Company.
