Property Purchased

SALISBURY – Advisor Christian Phillips recently represented local non-profit, Maryland Capital Enterprises (MCE), in the purchase of 314 Civic Avenue in Salisbury. The 2,800-square-foot freestanding office building satisfies MCE’s need for additional space and enhanced visibility as they expand their footprint on the Eastern Shore.

In the new location, Maryland Capital Enterprises will continue operating as a non-profit organization developing business plans, providing business development training and issuing small business loans. In addition to these services, Civic Avenue will also house the Women’s Business Center, a branch of the organization designed to empower and support women in business throughout Maryland.

“Non-profit organizations tend to have very dynamic operations and needs,” said Phillips. “Having a firm grasp on the role that they play within the community or in this case, state, was crucial in matching them with a property that checked all of their boxes.”

Phillips worked closely with MCE to ensure the successful transition into the Civic Avenue property. The seller, Wraparound Maryland, was represented by Tonney Insley of SVN Miller Commercial Real Estate.
