Some sales are a house. This one was a portfolio play. On October 8, 2026, Chris Doherty closed 289 Lakeview Ave for $830,000 and 295 Lakeview Ave for $870,000 — two Lowell multifamily buildings, eight units in total, $1.7 million combined, sold in one coordinated move.
Selling Investment Property in Lowell Is a Different Sport
Investor buyers don't fall in love with kitchen cabinets. They run math: rent rolls, expenses, cap rates, and what the buildings throw off every month. Pricing a multifamily means pricing it to that math — too high and the numbers never pencil for a serious buyer; too low and you leave your seller's money on the table. Getting two buildings to the closing table on the same day takes a buyer pool that goes well beyond Lowell and the patience to keep eight units' worth of tenants, inspections, and paperwork moving in the same direction.
That's the work. And it's the work Chris Doherty does at a volume nobody else in this market matches.
