New Castle, DE [July 15, 2025] – NAI Emory Hill’s Lorraine Sheldon recently brokered the sale of an investment property located at 708 & 716 Philadelphia Pike in Wilmington, Delaware, representing both the buyer and the seller in the transaction. The property sold for close to the $900,000 asking price to Providence12, LLC who acquired the asset from Oak Lane, LLC. 

Totaling 10,275 square feet, the two-building, fully leased office and retail property offers excellent income potential with below-market rents and low maintenance requirements, making it a strategic addition to the new investor’s portfolio. The property features four new gas-fired HVAC units installed in 2023, a dock door, and ample off-street parking on busy Philadelphia Pike. 

Ideally located on the heavily trafficked Route 13, the site offers 170 feet of frontage and high visibility just minutes from I-95, I-495, and downtown Wilmington. Tenants benefit from the property’s walkable access to nearby shops and restaurants, adding to its long-term investment appeal.

“This property checks all the boxes for an investor-stable tenancy, value-add potential, and a high-visibility location,” said Sheldon. “Philadelphia Pike continues to be an active and resilient corridor for both retail and office users, and I’m proud that the seller was a referral from a local attorney, and my knowledge of North Wilmington helped bring another successful deal to the table.”

This sale adds to Sheldon’s strong track record along the Philadelphia Pike corridor, which includes the recent sales of 707 Philadelphia Pike and 1604 Philadelphia Pike.
