COLUMBUS, OH – Oct. 3, 2022 – PEBB Enterprises, the South Florida-based private equity real estate investment company with a national commercial real estate portfolio, completed the $10 million sale of Hunter’s Ridge Shopping Center near Columbus, Ohio. Hunter’s Ridge is a well-located, 84,724-square-foot neighborhood retail center in the Columbus suburb of Gahanna.
WB Ventures, LLC, led by James Nizzo, is the buyer of the center located at Highway 270 and Hamilton Road. The transaction closed on Sept. 27.
