“Our mission at Tulfra Real Estate is to transform underutilized sites into properties that produce jobs and income for residents and tax revenue for municipalities,” Jumani said. “In this regard, our construction and repositioning of 10 Kingsland Road is a sound success.”
The deal is the second Tulfra has executed with Columbia Storage Group. The developer recently sold a 108,000 s/f self-storage facility at 670 Passaic Ave. in West Caldwell, N.J. to the storage company.
The brokers on both transactions were Kevin Welsh, Brian Schulz, and Jason Emrani of Newmark Knight Frank.
