Two Delaware County Commercial Properties Change Hands This Week
According to the Delaware County Auditor’s Office, there were two valid sales involving commercially zoned properties this week in Delaware County.
Garrett Development Group LLC purchased 1460 Manning Parkway in Powell, Ohio, for $1,180,000. The building is an office condominium that was built in 1996 and has 3,919 square feet. Manning Parkway is located off State Route 315 just north of Worthington Hills in southern Delaware County.
EBJT Holdings LLC purchased 6351 State Route 656 in Sunbury, Ohio, for $61,800. The property is essentially 0.81 acres of land with an old structure on it. It sits in “downtown” Olive Green just north of the State Routes 521 and 656 intersection.
A valid sale is one in which the parties are not related and the purchase is considered an “arm’s length” transaction.
Sold this Week in Delaware County
AZM Realty Ltd. has purchased a Sunbury, Ohio office building this past week for the only valid-sale transaction in Delaware County, Ohio, according to the Delaware County Auditor’s Site.
The property, located at 801 West Cherry Street — State Routes 36/37 — is a two-story structure located on the north side of the building just at the edge of Sunbury towards I-71. The building was built in 1996 and has 12,000 square feet that are rented to multiple tenants. According to the Delaware County Auditor, AZM Realty Ltd. paid $1,042,000 for the property.
A valid sale is a term utilized by the Auditor’s office to differentiate between simply a change or edit to the title of a property that must be recorded but does not necessarily mean a change of hands. Valid sale can also be called an arm’s length transaction, essentially meaning that – in theory – neither party was in distress and the value can be considered the highest and best for the property today.
