NAI Norwood Group leases 4,000 s/f to Northeast Credit Union
NAI Norwood Group has leased the former Gary Blake Motorcars location at 84 Portsmouth Ave. The 4,000 s/f free-standing building was leased to Northeast Credit Union. John Mueller of NAI Norwood Group represented the owner/lessor, Gary Blake.
The tenant, Northeast Credit Union, is a long-term well respected financial services company that sought a long-term tenancy in a high profile location. The tenant was the perfect tenant to fill the vacancy caused by the recent retraction of the auto sales business.
"In the last 18 months, this is the second property that NAI Norwood Group has represented in which Northeast Credit Union became the tenant. We are happy to help match property owners with excellent tenants," said Sarah Carson, marketing director at NAI Norwood Group.
