What is an Off-Market Transaction?

Off-market commercial real estate transactions occur without public listing, marketing, or exposure on platforms like LoopNet,CoStar, orCrexi. These deals happen through private broker networks, direct owner outreach, and established relationships.

For Manhattan property sellers, off-market sales provide complete confidentiality, avoiding tenant disruption and preventing market speculation that can affect property values or business operations. Institutional sellers and family offices particularly value this discretion.

For commercial real estate buyers and investors, off-market deals offer exclusive access to properties before they hit the open market—reducing competition and often resulting in better pricing and terms.

Robert Khodadadian has spent nearly two decades building the relationships and market intelligence necessary to facilitate these confidential transactions at the highest level—from $1M multifamily buildings to $140M+ office towers.
