Salisbury, MD – SVN | Miller Commercial Real Estate is proud to announce the recent closing of a challenging investment transaction at 1304 S Division Street in Salisbury, Maryland. The deal, which closed in September 2025, showcases the persistence, collaboration, and client dedication of SVN | Miller Advisors Meredith Mears and Chris Messick, who represented both seller and buyer respectively.
The transaction faced numerous hurdles over the course of many months – from multiple leases with varying structures to tenant demands and renegotiations – but both Advisors addressed several unique circumstances and remained committed to ultimately seeing the deal through.
“This deal fell apart a dozen times, but we refused to give up,” said Mears. “Chris and I stayed focused on solutions, stayed in constant contact with our clients and each other, and we ultimately found a way for both parties to see the deal through.”
Chris Messick added, “It was truly a collaborative effort. Each challenge forced us to get creative and communicate constantly – and ultimately, that teamwork made the difference.”
