Namdar Realty Group

Namdar Realty Group is a privately held, family-owned real estate investment firm based in Great Neck, New York. The company specializes in acquiring and managing distressed retail properties, including shopping malls, open-air retail spaces, office buildings, and mixed-use developments across the United States. As of 2021, Namdar owned over 400 properties, with a significant portion being 'class B' and 'class C' malls in small-to-midsize markets. These properties are often purchased in cash for approximately $5.3 million each, reflecting the company's focus on distressed assets.

The firm's investment strategy involves reducing maintenance expenditures by up to 67% compared to other malls and lowering store rents to maintain low vacancy rates. Namdar often sells outparcels of its malls to generate additional revenue. The company has partnered with firms such as Mason Asset Management, Uber Capital Group, Gorjian Acquisitions, and CH Capital Group to execute its acquisition strategy. Namdar's primary source of investment capital comes from bonds on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.

Namdar Realty Group has been involved in various legal disputes concerning property maintenance and management practices. For instance, in 2018, lawsuits were filed over the lack of maintenance at Regency Square Mall in Jacksonville, Florida, and Voorhees Town Center in Voorhees Township, New Jersey. These legal challenges highlight ongoing concerns about the company's property management practices and their impact on tenant relations and property conditions.
