How Midfield Unlocked Full Value in an Investment Property Acquisition in Mount Vernon, Baltimore
The Challenge
After a failed listing with another real estate broker, the seller struggled to generate meaningful interest and began doubting whether the target sale price for his Baltimore multifamily investment property was even achievable—raising serious concerns about the success of the overall investment property acquisition strategy.
The Solution
Yaakov Kanevsky of Midfield Real Estateidentified untapped value in the asset and knew a traditional approach wouldn't be enough. While initial outreach produced several strong offers, Yaakov recognized an opportunity to create urgency and competition. He partnered with Matt Cooper of the Alex Cooper Auction Group—specialists in high-impact investment property acquisition strategies in Baltimore—and repositioned the listing for auction. This move created a controlled bidding environment aimed at maximizing the asset’s market exposure and driving value beyond standard expectations.
The Result
The auction drew 9 competitive offers. Yaakov secured a buyer with no financing contingencies, who closed faster than expected and matched the seller’s original valuation target. The transaction exemplifies Midfield’s strength as a real estate brokerage firm specializing in multifamily investment properties in Baltimore, offering sellers a smarter, more aggressive path to value.
This success story highlights how a combination of data-driven insight, creative deal structuring, and auction expertise can transform a stagnant listing into a profitable property investment opportunity.
“I highly recommend this company to sell your investment. I have worked with several agents to close the deal, however, no one was able to provide the creativity to get the job done. Top ratings are earned, not given.”
