Avison Young arranges 12,000 SF retail lease in Groton with Emerson Hospital: Massachusetts Homebuyers Homeownership

 Boston, Ma Avison Young’s Boston office announced that it has arranged a new 12,000-square-foot (sf) lease at 240 Main Street in Groton, MA with Emerson Hospital. This lease serves as a major relocation for the full service medical center’s regional facility to dramatically improve patient services in an upgraded, modern setting.

 Avison Young’s Boston-based Principal Jeffrey Arsenault, who specializes in the retail sector throughout Boston and New England, represented ownership, Kilbourne Place, LLC, in the negotiations. Emerson Hospital was represented by Steve Cook at JLL. Additionally, Avison Young’s Construction Management Group has been retained by both ownership and the tenant to complete core work to the building and construct the tenant’s turn-key facility. Construction is scheduled to being this month.

 “Having previously served as a local grocery store, 240 Main Street was strategically repositioned by ownership and local stakeholders to serve as a traditional retail space designed to enhance the community and appeal to a diverse range of users, including first class healthcare tenants,” said Arsenault. “The building’s lease with Emerson Hospital signifies the growing trend in the healthcare industry to provide services in a more traditional retail setting.”

 240 Main Street is a 13,500-sf newly repurposed retail asset in Groton, MA. The building is situated in a prime suburban retail market just north of Interstate 495. Emerson Hospital’s relocation from its former Boston Road facility signifies the first time that a hospital has been housed on Main Street since 1962. The hospital’s new regional location will include an X-Ray room, blood collection lab, exam rooms, treatment rooms, equipment storage, staff lounge and lockers, offices and waiting rooms.

Who Pays the Home Buyer's Agent?

Both seller's agent fees and buyer agent's fees are part of a typical real estate transaction and are included in the final negotiated purchase price of the property. There should be no additional fees to the buyer for a buyer's agent above and beyond the negotiated purchase price of a home unless specifically agreed in writing between the buyer and agent before an offer is made.

In most cases, the seller's agent pays the buyer's agent for bringing the buyer, negotiating the purchase price and terms, writing a legally correct offer, coordinating inspections, responses, and financing plus handling numerous additional details on the buyer's side of the transaction.

Buyers should avoid contacting seller's agents and sellers directly unless they are comfortable negotiating and representing themselves. That is why it is important for buyers to choose their agents BEFORE they begin looking at homes or as soon as possible if they have begun looking.
