NKF Capital Markets Facilitates $23.5 Million Sale of Norwood Medical Center to Thor Equities
The sale of the Norwood Medical Center, located at 825 Washington Street in Norwood, Massachusetts, to an affiliate of Thor Equities for $23.5 million was successfully completed by NKF Capital Markets. Operating on behalf of Grander Capital Partners, the NKF Capital Markets transaction team was led by Executive Managing Director Frank Nelson, Managing Director Michael Greeley, Director James Tribble, and Senior Analyst Casey O’Brien, with overarching guidance from U.S. Capital Markets Co-Head Robert Griffin.
Spanning 92,400 square feet, the multi-tenant medical office building is anchored by Steward Health Care on a long-term lease. The property derives exceptional strategic value from its direct adjacency to Steward Norwood Hospital, functioning as its primary medical office and outpatient services complex. Commending the previous ownership, Michael Greeley noted, “We commend Grander Capital on an effective repositioning of the asset, including significantly expanding Steward Norwood Hospital’s future presence in the building, and congratulate Thor Equities on this unique acquisition opportunity.”
Positioned for prime regional accessibility, the medical center is situated near Route 1—a major local retail corridor—and lies within five miles of premier shopping destinations like University Station and Legacy Place. Furthermore, the property enjoys exceptional public transit and highway connectivity, sitting within a five-minute walk of the MBTA’s Norwood Central commuter rail station and a 10-minute drive from Interstate 95 (Route 128).
