First Real Estate Investment Trust of New Jersey, Inc. (FREIT) is a Maryland-incorporated equity REIT focused on long-term ownership of residential and commercial properties in New Jersey and New York. As of October 31, 2025, it held six multifamily properties with 792 units, a 65% tenancy-in-common interest in the 266-unit Pierre Towers, five commercial properties totaling about 589,000 square feet, and three parcels of undeveloped land.
Total assets were $149.9 million and mortgage debt was $121.3 million at a weighted average interest rate of 5.34% and average life of 1.6 years, leaving the REIT highly leveraged and reliant on refinancings of balloon maturities. Real estate revenue rose to $29.3 million in fiscal 2025, driven by higher residential rents and 96.6% average occupancy, partially offset by lower commercial income tied to elevated vacancies at Westwood Plaza and Preakness Center.
Net income attributable to common equity was $3.5 million or $0.47 per diluted share, down from $15.9 million in 2024, when results were boosted by a litigation settlement and property sale gains. The company extended or modified several key loans, including reducing the Westwood Plaza mortgage to $10 million at 8.5% interest, and continues to negotiate extensions on a $25 million Preakness Center mortgage. FREIT paid an annual dividend of $0.36 per share in 2025 and maintains a stockholder rights plan effective through July 31, 2026.
