RED BANK, NJ – (Feb. 19, 2025) – First National Realty Partners (FNRP), a leading national private equity commercial real estate firm, closed 2024 with impressive leasing performance and continued portfolio expansion, positioning itself for an opportunistic 2025. Despite market challenges, FNRP executed its investment strategy, achieving key milestones across its portfolio.
In 2024, FNRP signed 76 new leases totaling over 487,000 square feet, surpassing its goal and underscoring demand for necessity-based retail. Notable deals included Crunch Fitness at Waldorf Marketplace, Burlington Coat Factory at Brandywine Crossing, and Ross Dress for Less at McAlpin Square.
“Our team’s expertise drove strong leasing activity,” said Fred Battisti, Chief Revenue Officer at FNRP. “Grocery-anchored and open-air centers benefit from low vacancy rates and sustained demand, positioning us to capitalize on these trends in 2025.”
FNRP expanded its footprint with $95.3 million in acquisitions, adding assets including Elements Horsham (PA), Sumter Square (SC), Horizon Village (AZ), Townes Crossing (IL), Fountain Hills Plaza (AZ), Waretown Town Center (NJ), and Freeway Crossing (NC).
