A 17,819-square-foot, mixed-use building on Main Street in Thomaston recently sold for $1.25 million to a New Jersey buyer with a growing Connecticut portfolio.
Myer Kahan, of Toms River, New Jersey, is principal of Thomaston 23 LLC, which bought the 1876-vintage, three-story brick building at 62 Main St., from Sky Mac LLC in a sale logged by the town on July 10.
The seller paid $500,000 for the building in 2003, according to assessing records. The principal of Sky Mac is David M. LaManna. He is also a principal of Empire Insurance Network, which is located in a nearby Main Street office.
Kahan, in a message to The Hartford Business Journal, said he likes the area and is looking for additional investment opportunities.
Kahan has been an active investor in Connecticut over the past several months.
At the close of 2022, Kahan paid $7.96 million for a 10-story, 115-unit apartment tower in downtown Waterbury.
In late June, Kahan paid $900,000 for a 26,324-square-foot building in New Britain he plans to remodel into 32 apartments.
Between those purchases, Kahan paid $2.1 million for three, six-family and one, five-family apartment buildings in New Britain.
Michelle Lorenzetti, a broker with Southington-based Premier Real Estate Investment Group, introduced Kahan to the Thomaston property off-market and then helped both sides close the deal.Â
